I predict MAG will recieve a 40/40 from famitsu... if it releases in japan... Same for Eyepet.

Nope. Neither is Japanese. FF13 will get 40/40, and GT5, and maybe The Last Guardian. Perhaps Quantum Theory for good measure. And, of course, Zelda Wii and NSMB Wii. And Super Mario Galaxy 2.

While they're at it, why don't they give 40/40 to every game that comes out of Japan?

You're still on this vendetta that they hate Western games....

 

Oh goodness.

Which is funny... because it's not that they HATE western games.  It's just Western games don't fit their taste... or ANYONES taste in Japan.

All it is, is a byproduct of the fact that reviewers have no critical intergirty and instead judge things based on "How much THEY liked them."

Half the time without even their own set criteiria for this.

So, no shit that japanese reviewers don't give western games really high review scores.  Japanese reviewers have different sensibilities and tastes then western ones... and there is no "Critical standard" like there is with... well pretty much EVERY review system from movies to cars.
