I'll trust Famitsu on this one

Oh dear. Are you familiar with Famitsu at all?

How good/bad are they? I keep hearing about their ratings, but I can't really read their reviews.

Their ratings are proportional to how much advertising the game gets in their mag and how big the games' publisher is in Japan. They make most of the western press look like a bastion of integrity.

I'll always remember how they gave a 29/40 for Demons' Souls (a low rating by their standard) but once the game hit big and Bamco started paying for page space in their magazine for the sequel, Dark Souls ended up with a 37/40. Three 9/10s and a perfect 10. How about that.

the musou series is funny. Some will defend the repetitive gameplay all day but then go around and bash another game for the same thing. and vice versa. Why does musou get a pass? I get if you like the game and thats fine but you would still have to judge accordingly.

In what universe do Musou games get a pass?

Those suckers gave Resident Evil 6 a 39/40, so yeah! 'Nuff said..

A Dynasty Warriors game is repetitive? I am shocked.

The attention this game is getting sickens me. Do well in Japan and flop everywhere else and let's be done with it.

I actually dont think it will flop in america because its been in the top 20 at amazon since the direct ended

its in top 40 at best buy and gamestop and walmart to for a while

I think it can achieve a 100k opening for america :)



Bets:

(Won)Bet with TechoHobbit: He(Techno) says 10 million by January 1,2014 I say 9 million by then. Winner gets 2 weeks of sig control.

(Lost)Bet with kinisking: I say Ps4 will win April NPD while he says Xbox One will win it; winner gets 1 week of avatar control.

Raichu's First Series:

First RPG?

First Fighter?

First Racer?

First Shooter?

First MMO?

First Horror?

The game will do well in Japan, OK-ish in America and in Europe it will bomb pretty badly!

Just lol.

Bolded is pretty much what the Musou series is all about. Maybe they should pick their reviewers more carefully.

I mean that's like letting someone with severe motion sickness and and acrophobia review Starfox.

What a Nintendo fan...

OT: This is what happens when Nintendo IPs are left to third-party developers and Aonuma.

Yeah, France is France but I wouldn't put too much faith into Amazon!
