Wow.

Some nice low First day numbers for "Trusty bell".

It'd be lucky to beat out the 360 version.

Shame I really don't care about sales of the game, since I'm much more excited for WKC, and that will obviously do better than a year old game.

IDKY people expected too much from a mediocre game launching a year late on the PS3.

But.. but... but... starcraft said it was impressive and ps3 fans should gobble a year old game up. Why are you saying it was mediocre?

Many Sony fans in this thread have already stated that they expected more from the title.  Western reviewers seem to believe it is better than mediocre.

Did you play it DMeisterJ?

Yeah, I played it for about two hours.

You can check my GamerCard (Diablo Phoenix) if you don't believe me.

Oh thats ok I believe you.

But I do find it interesting that you consider two hours sufficient time to pass judgement on a leveling game that can take up to 30 hours or more.  Especially a judgement that contrasts with the Western gaming press.

Mediocre is what "the western gaming press" reviewed it.

With the broken review scale, a metacritic of 79 is mediocre (or average) my all respects.  I may be jaded by being taken care of by SE and FF franchise, but ES left a horrible taste in my mouth

79 is actually pretty great for a JRPG.

Not that i expected this game to sell good... but i mean, unless it's Pokemon, DQ, FF or one of the underground favorites with a few devoted fanboys(persona)....

75-85 is about what to expect for all JRPGs... because they lack "WRPG traits" like live action battles.

I mean... Disgaea 3... a SRPG has a review score of 77.

Shin Megami Tensei:Digital Devil Summoner has a metacritic rating of 78!


Crisis Core... is ranked right along Eternal Sonata as well.

While one of your favorites (not exactly an RPG but japanese based.) has a ranking of like 73 metacritic wise.  Monster Hunter.
