oh yeah the "conspiracy"

you see whenever a 360 JRPG got bad reviews (all of them) from western publications everyone shouted FOUL n said Western reviewers don't know how to review JRPG's & that western reviewers only give high marks to FF.

but then Valkyria Chronicles got brilliant reviews n then Persona 4 (a weak franchise sales wise) got great reviews too.

 

Um Tales of Vesperia got great reviews.

Also it is true that final fantasy has a hype field around it. Final fantasy X-2 was even in 80s. Also I do agree that IU is shit, but the low scores in lost odyssey was just strange.

I honestly think the 360 staff on major review sites don't like JRPG because thats not what they normally play.

While the ps3 reviewers do know a thing or two about JRPGs since ps2 and psone had a huge rpg lineup.
