And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,

I don't know what gave you the impression that they hated them in the first place.

I found their top 25 of 2007. 11 are western games, so this is nothing new: http://www.vg247.com/2008/03/17/famitsus-top-20-games-of-2007-by-score/

Not I did not. Look at any GTA. Vice Story Stories on PSP got a 35/40. Vice City on PS2 got a 37/40.

hmm only 30/40 for MCII...I thought it would get somewhere between 32 and 36.

 

Yeah it looked better then that. Oh well.

On the other hand, whoo! For a PSP game, Tales of versus got a nice score!



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

They are both Western developed. Vice City was better than Stories. What's your point?

Another week and no new announcements for the Wii. I sound very repetitive, but weeks are going by and we don't see any kind of support for the Wii. Do Japanese developers care at all for the Wii?
