didn't this game get a 40/40?

Even though these impressions are fake don't trust that score at all. FF12 which was in my opinion was awful also got 40/40 from Famitsu many years ago.

Oh no, I'm not saying the game will be good, I'm saying a JP mag gave them a perfect score (or has that been disproved?) either way, the more I'm hear about the game, the less Impressed I am.

No the Famitsu score is real. To be honest their written review for the game sounded impressive but I don't know what to think. So far the only non-famitsu reviews we have are Dengeki who gave it an S, but they are not to be trusted either. Then we have impressions from the editor of Playstation The Official Magazine who said the game improves over XIII in 3 big ways (linearity, more fleshed out characters and a story that makes sense) and in general he was praising the game a lot.

Even if what the PTOM editor is saying is true I will still remain skeptical till I have played the game for myself, I feel the press tends to overrate Final Fantasy because they have a soft spot for it. Or better we should see what Edge thinks, they gave FFXIII a 4 so I can trust them.
