It's the same (or 1 point above) Infinite Undiscovery.

I doubt they're gonna be too far off vs. what the game actually is...Famitsu hasn't been too bad as of late (calling IU a turd. Saying TLR was pretty good).

 

 Yea, cause we all know that 38/40 is what you give a "Pretty Good" Game

I don't trust Famituse at all. I've never really trusted them. I mean they basically admitted to scoring based on the Hype for the game.

But I thought that WKC was going to be the Playstation 3's crown gem of the 2nd half of the year? Every Sony fanboy on these forums has been hyping the game to all feasable heights...Said it was going to do great. So I'd think that it had some hype behind it.

Or are we playing SDF revisionist history? IU was hotly anticipated too.

Well, at least if the 360 has shown us anything, review scores mean very little when it comes to selling RPGs in Japan. Not that I'm adamantly trying to defend the PS3, but even a quick glance at Famitsu's review scores would show that they mean pretty much nothing. Seriously, The Last Remnant scores higher than Tales of Vesperia? More hyped, maybe (and that's likely the reason for the higher score).

The score definitely is a bad sign, but Famitsu's scores are so random that we should probably wait for more to come before completely passing judgment.
