AWESOME!

Because of this game and MGS:R I might be forced to get a PS3 this year. Really don't want to miss this one.

some nice scores for sure :D But this isn't even the biggest review surprise this week..that honor goes to DMC :P

^ I agree, if I didn't have a PS3 already this is exactly the type of game that would make me get one. I think the same could be said for a lot of people. People talk about "system sellers" usually in the context of big budget games but I disagree, this is just what jaded JRPG lovers have been waiting for by the looks of things.

10/10 from Godisageek.com

"It has been a long time since I have played a game of this type and been bowled over in such dramatic fashion. The desire to play more, to spend some more time in this other world with my new pal Mr Drippy, was almost overwhelming each time I put the control pad down. It is a game that people will get a thrill out of simply watching in motion, and has a wonderfully universal story that touches the basic emotions within us all. This is a title that is sure to be amongst the discussions when the best games of 2013 are pondered. It may just be my favourite ever role-playing game, and is unquestionably the best looking; one of the graphical high points for the PlayStation 3."

Seems people hate having to put it down after they start playing.

In the comments section on N4G the guy from Godisageek.com said this:

"When he handed his review in, our guy said "This is the easiest 10 out of 10 I've ever given".

I've played just under 30 hours, I can see why he said that. It's just...magnificent."

Oh how I love the art style.

Wow watching the video review from Ign made me really wanna get this game! it looks so damn good!

I usually dont like these type of games but I will kick myself if I dont get this later.
This is why I own a ps3 also, am I right!

And it was very well deserved

Keep the good reviews coming. Hopefully sales will boost from this. JRPGs like this need all the attention they can get this gen. Also, I hope we see more Level-5 + Studio Ghibli collaborations in the future.
