Do you know that the 4 people only play the game for an hour?  Is it not plausible that they have 4 reviewers play the game as much as 1 western reviewer before leaving their thoughts?

They are, after all, part of a massive media organization in Japan in an industry where magazines still have a large amount of relevance.


I remember watching a documentary about Famitsu. Reviewers have barely time to do anything at all. They just have to play a game as much as they can over a very strict timetable, then plaster their impressions in few lines and a number and move on to the next game.

Which is no different than what Western reviewers do. If you read reviews, it's quite easy to notice how much (or how little) of the game they actually play.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
