The fact that Western critics really don't tend to give xbox exclusives any lower than 8.5 to 9.0 scores no matter what their quality


Stop. Stop right there. You're so wrong, my friend. So wrong.


No.  I'm not wrong.  Dave Halverson ( and company ) have been the best critic that American Video Game Journalism has had to offer going back to the days of DieHard Gamefan in the early 1990s ( http://kotaku.com/5066014/golden-axe-reviews-are-irresponsible-rubbish-says-reviewer ).

As mentioned before, early Playstation 3 games like Heavenly Sword and Folklore received much better review scores in his Play magazine than several of the most heralded Xbox games ( ; however, the biased Western gaming media saw fit to give them scores in the 70s whereas the xbox fames were given much higher scores by the Xbox fanboys in the mainstream Western gaming media.

So as I said before, I'll either wait for Dave Halverson ( http://www.gamesetwatch.com/2009/02/column_game_mag_weaseling_dave.php ) or Nick Rox's take on the game or Raychul Moore ( https://www.youtube.com/user/RaychulMoore )'s she generally gives accurate reviews to Playstation games.
