One thing is that when Bayonetta got a 40/40 it didn't mean shit, and Famitsu sucked, and I must be joking to be happy about the damn score, because Famitsu reviews mean less than nothing.

And then, those same fanboys claim that FFXIII getting a 39/40 is somehow a negative reflection on the game.

Will someone, anyone, please explain that to me. It's pretty much most of you here, so I want to hear it. Why does it mean nothing to Bayonetta, but something to Final Fantasy XIII?


I'd speculate that because Famitsu hands out "so many" perfect scores lately, those cease to mean anything. I would retort that most of those games changed gaming to some extent, and that there are VERY few games that have EVER recieved a perfect score(isn't it about 13 of them?) from the magazine ever, and that it is still impossibly hard to get a perfect score from that magazine, as FFXIII has shown. You need a lot of luck. The magazine isn't a single score. It's 4 differing opinions about the same game, and no matter how good your game is, you have to be damn lucky for 4 different assholes to think it's perfect all at once.

I am amazed, after the Bayonetta reaction, that people who hate this magazine, are pretending that this matters to them. A M A Z E D at the level of hypocrisy and malevolence that takes to pull off.
