So XCX didn't do well. No chance for goty. I am curious to see how witcher 3 performs.

Hyperbolic statement, really, and so many other comments in the thread. 

Persona 4 got a 33 back in the day. yet it's an acclaimed title here in the West. Skyward Sword got a 40, yet does it have that level of acclaim here? Bloodborne got a 36, yet it's PS4's highest rated title to this day.

Suddenly a 34 in Famitsu translates into a 75 in Metacritic? 

I say Famitsu is not a right way to predict critical performance here in the West, let's just wait for proper Western reviews. 

And still, guys, 34 is technically an 8.5 which is really good. 

Very good post.
