A quick rundown of GI reviews for JRPGs this gen:

90 - Blue Dragon
85 - Lost Odyssey
85 - Valkyria Chronicles
85 - Persona 3
83 - Disgaea 3
83 - Eternal Sonata
83 - The World Ends With You
80 - Infinite Undiscovery
80 - Persona 4
73 - Tales of Vesperia
73 - Folklore
70 - The Last Remnant
70 - Culdcept Saga
60 - Enchanted Arms
60 - Phantasy Star Universe
53 - Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom

Looking at the list, you notice 2 glaring things:

1) Their reviews for new IPs seem to go in the general direction of average scores
2) Their reviews for established IPs are the exact opposite. Horrible scores for ToV, and Persona 3/4

Take of it as you will, but those Tales of Vesperia and Persona scores are a pretty bad mark on them. I'll wait for the GameTrailers and RPG Fan scores, as well as IGN. GT and RPGF are the best 2, IMO.

And FYI, the ToV review they gave was only 0.25 higher in both the primary and second opinion than this SO4 score. So I really wonder...

 

 stickball why did you put persona 3 and 4 in that list they arent on ps3/360/wii therefore invalid.
