axumblade said: 8 is actually a really good score considering it's IGN who reviewed this. RPG's this generation tend to get torn apart critically. |
Personally I don't think this gen's JRPGs have been that impressive. So I somewhat agree with IGN's take on this gen's JRPGs in general. The only JRPGs that I really liked this gen were Valkyria Chronicles, Lost Odyssey, and Tales of Vesperia. And all 3 got >8.0 from IGN. I wouldn't say that IGN torn apart a lot of JRPGs this gen. They gave a lot of mediocre JRPGs positive reviews (ie. Infinite Undiscovery, Resonance of Fate, Star Ocean: TLH, Enchanted Arms, Blue Dragon).
