 March 2008 Microsoft held a conference in Japan to announce Last Remnent, Infinite Undiscovery, and Star Ocean 4 though none of them turned out to be worth the hype (at least their 360's versions didn't as far as sales and review scores go).

 

    The conference was in June. And announced games were Tales of Vesperia, Star Ocean 4. Both of which got good review scores and overall reception. IU was announced long before this conference.

      IGN gave the Tales games and Star Ocean games on PS1 and PS2 (and Symphonia on Gamecube)  much higher review scores than they gave Vesperia and Star Ocean 360, and I think other critics did so as well.  Also neither Star Ocean 360 or the Tales games seem to have sold as well as Symphonia or past Tales and Star Ocean games on Playstation systems.

 

You said 'reviews', and not just IGN. Make it clear next time that you are talking solely about IGN. Because overall reception of SO4 and ToV was good. And actually, even IGN praised both games in its reviews.
