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.

I'd say it's best to wait for player reviews of FFXIII-2 rather than professional reviews. There's no corruption with player reviews, IMO. Also, Edge magazine gave the first FFXIII a 5/10. I'm predicting a 7/10 or 8/10 for the sequel.

Edge is my favorite reviewer, I will trust them. And Edge gave FFXIII a 4/10, I predict a 6/10 from them, they can see through graphics to see what a game truly is.

I really think that Edge is biased. Graphics are a huge part of the game and it shold not be overlooked (something that they have done with many big games) Infact they seem to judge games with better visuals at a much higher standard than they would do with a game that has normal visals. The ignored all of Zelda's visual faults and games like hardly even noticed the fact how good visuals games like God of War 3, Uncharted 3, and Gears of War 3 is. Despite them giving UC3 and Gears of War 3 a good score.
