Persona 5... at 36 reviews and a 94 score :) hell yeah.

thejimquisition is the only reviewer to give it under 90 ; _ ; and he gave it a 85!

Why Jim... Why?

 

"Honestly, I only have one major gripe with Persona 5, and it’s a gripe that I’m not sure is unfair or not. A big part of my ability to invest as much time as I did into Persona 4 Golden was due to it being playable on the Vita, a portable system, and Persona 5 being locked to home consoles (PS3 and PS4) does somewhat hamper my ability to integrate it into my life. While I usually want to be playing the game’s big sprawling dungeons on a TV, the slow intricate social life management sections of Persona are honestly perfect fodder for playing on the sofa while watching TV or on a quick bus ride to pass the time."

8.5 / 10

 

>_< he scored it lower than he would have, because it wasnt portable? wtf.

I thought I'd seen it all from reviewers.  But lowering a game's score because it's on the wrong console.. that's new.

This may sound weird, but to honest, I couldn't agree more with him. I find the social aspect great on psv but boring on a big screen. Same with visual novels and many other games. If I were to write a completely honest review, I'd give it a lower score for the exact same reason.
