... And I don't see what's so strange about Arc Rise Fantasia being higher than TLS. TLS has some has some very mixed impressions as well if you read some reviews. And the only reasons ARF is bashed is because of the voice acting which isn't a problem in Japan. Other than that, it's a very good game. Remember that review I wrote a while back? Opoona is the only strange one (I guess people just liked it more than we think). And don't you think Xenoblade's score on that site seems awfully similar to the reviews thus far? And like Rol said, German/Austrian reviewers aren't the most favorable people, and a site that doesn't like the Wii like GamePro STILL gave the game an 87% which is very good. |

I hadn't seen the original release but why are these so low still? I think that website is filled with trolls.
And those were just a couple of examples. I could give you more but I fear you're going to find a clever explanation for all of them O_o
Also the sole reason why FFXIII is that low is simply because it went to the 360. Famitsu readers voted FFXIII the best game of all time so spare me the mixed impressions stuff. It wasn't the same in Japan.
But you are right the website gives us a good indication of Xenoblade's quality but it is not to be taken too seriously as it seems like some games are inflated for no reason and some other are overly underrated.
