29/40 is a terrible score for a Japanese high-profile game in Famitsu.

The only conclusion I can draw is that it's flawed, or just plain stinks, like Last Remnat.

BTW, what score got Lost Odessey, Last Remnat, Tales ov Vesperia, Infinite Undiscovery from Famitsu?

I believe White Knigthe Cronicles will have trouble to even reach 500,000 copies. 550,000 copies tops.

 

Last remnant gotten 38/40 from famitsu, and we know how it was reviewed in here.

 

 You got a digit wrong there didnt you? You mean LR got 28/40 rite?

It's incredible how a reviewer can get into peoples minds with a letter and a number... How about READING something before posting about the low number it got???

Basically, the main problem that Famitsu has with the game is the online mode, now tell me, how many JRPG lovers care about the online??? (i play MMORPGs from Japan, but if a JPRG comes without online i wouldn't care as much as i care with the FPS genre)...

Besides, this is Famitsu, the same ones that gave FFXII a 40/40 (i like the game, but not as much as everyone since VI), TLR a 38/40 (And didn't even mention the tech issues), i suggest trying the game before listening to a reviewer, especially one that doesn't have a good reputation (especially in this forums, everyone said that Famitsu reviewed on hype, then the first PS3 JRPG comes out with a bad review and everyone is down already??? hypocrisy much???)

 

 

As I've already said so many times before, its about the fact that Famitsu gives JRPG "higher" scores than comparing to the West. The Last Remnant, Lost Odyssey, Children of Mana, Heroes of Mana, Wild Arms XF even Dragoneers Aria, just a few examples of games that got higher scores from Famitsu but nearly got trashed around here. Heck, Dragoneers Aria got even a higher score from Famitsu than WKC, can you believe it? Really, its true. That's the point... the point that if Famitsu normally scores JRPG's "higher", we can expect trash smashing around here when it concerns WKC. At least, that's what I'm afraid of...

 

But my point is precisely that, people look at a score and make a judgement really fast, when they should read entirely the review before believing a number or a letter-...

that's the score, famitsu almost always overgrade their games in the reviews, that's why i'm worried about white knight chronicles.

@Onna

Didn't Famitsu give Persona 4 a 33/40 and its at an average of 93% from Western revviwers right now.

IF WKC is like Rogue Galaxy I will be happy, I am still waiting for a Rogue Galaxy 2 announcement.

Also, TLR is actually pretty good. Don't knock it until you have tried it.

All jokes aside Famitsu are very well known for taking bribes, they have been naught doing so ans continue to do so. A lot of money hatting goes on with them leading me to believe that Sony either did not play ball or something is seriously seriously seriously wrong with the game.
