Wow... You quoted me but didn't read what I wrote? The Famitsu reviews typically only point out the POSITIVE elements in the game. Even if the entire game is total trash, they will give it a poor score and comment "It's a neat game but it could use a bit of work." Again, Famitsu doesn't like to rip on games unlike western reviewers. The game received a poor score because they thought it was subpar, not just because of chat problems.

Although I do agree TLR got a higher score than I would have given it, the game probably had elements which they really liked. The composer of the game also worked on MGS and FFVII AC and the art director also worked on FFVII, FFVIII, and FFX. Perhaps that was enough to boost its score.

 

When the art director for Final Fantasy 7, 8, and 10 is also the director of TLR, you know a few people are going to love the art, even if the game itself isn't as great.

 

 

wow you knew? hehe

I'm sorry, it's a little late. I'm afraid I'm not following you. Knew what?

 



Good news Everyone!

giving TLR a 38 or something was a joke, just look at the game in motion its crap.

He says that because in the review itself, there are no complaints of than the chatting method during online play. You know, something to justify the score.

Poor you, for making such a useless comment. The game stays on my most wanted list as well. The comments of Famitsu doesn't match with the irrational scores. Therefore I asked if someone knows when Dengeki PlayStation will have their montly reviews ready and who's going to buy the JP version.

This just goes to show the willfully ignorant that just because a JRPG is a PS3 exclusive, that doesn't mean it cannot attract scores similar to the Xbox 360 JRPG's. This gen is just going to show that the quality in JRPG's is dwindling no matter what system you buy it on. Take it while you can get it (Especially FF main series) if you're a fan of it and stop being pompus asses.
