HALO: Famitsu 92.5%. Median 95.6%. MOTORSTORM: Famitsu 75%. Median 82.5%. GTA SAN ANDREAS: Famitsu 75%. Median 95.1%. OBLIVION: Famitsu 80%. Median 93.9%. See a trend here? |
Yeah, I see trend here. The Japanese don't have an orgasm for games like GTA...but it still scored relatively well. You know that different markets have different game tastes, so for those games to get scored well in the Japanese market means that they were good.
Games like Final Fantasy, and I guess Lost Oddysey appeal to them, that's why hey score even higher. It's a matter of taste, and if games that they normally wouldn't care about score 92.5% (Halo) then it's great, and games that score 75% (Motorstorm) were just good.
Think about it from their perspective......their preferences are flipped from what ours are.
