Meh... am assuming different reactions for different genre's or something like that.....

They are usually more accurate with RPGs than they are with shooters

And Red Steel and The Orange Box. To be fair, they may just not know how to score shooters. Still Famitsu's reviews have fairly untelling in recent days.

I know what you mean. I was looking forward to this game called Phantasy Star Universe and it got a really good score in Famitsu(a 35/40 if anyone wants to know). However, it's seems I had my hope's a little too high as Western critcs weren't quite as warm towards the game with a lot of 5s, 6s, and 7s.

Nice score for FF4, ToV and FE. Nice to see lots of DS games getting good scores too.

Wewt, I called this, lol. Can't wait for ToV, Fire Emblem DS, and Fatal Frame IV.

I really think the two RPGs at least will be outstanding, and I also am pretty much in love with Suda, so I will shoot any two people you order me to if you'll send me a copy of Fatal Frame IV with a handy translation guide.
