BS is BS... FFXlll deserves to rated in 90's it just being a JRPG in western dominated Gen is tough so its unfairly judged

You can't blame the west for getting tired of playing the same type of game over and over again.

Seems like there have been great advancements in almost every genre this gen. However, JRPGs feel like the same crap we've been playing for years.

I'm really getting tired of people justifying their dislike or not playing a game based on a 'review'.  If you don't like JRPGs, then just come out and say it.  Stop arguing over 'scores' or trying to whine over reviewers not giving JRPGs 'equal treatment'.  Reviewers have massive bias and are going to downscore JRPGs.  Just like reviewers in Japan are going to inflate the scores for RPGs in Japan.  Its a fact.  Just get over it.  And if you are trying to use review scores to justify that JRPGs are 'not evolving' or 'the same shit', then you have no case.  You're just repeating the same junk you've been hearing from the 'anti JRPG' crowd and reviewers of JRPGs.

Its not that I hate JRPGs, its just been a long time since I felt like I'm play something great. Bear in mind I still do play them, I have several on the 360, but I haven't completed because I lose interest. So I understand why they are getting low scores.

I reserve my opinions of FFXIII because I haven't played. But I will down the road. However, I disagree with the notion that JRPGs are getting lower scores because of a bias. I think reviewers are just tired of playing JRPGs that feel like games we've been playing for years.
