    I expected it to be good, but not this good. This makes me even more excited.

    Meh... Final Fantasy XIII got 8s and 9s while Lost Odyssey got 6s and 7s. I'll be the judge myself. I'll rent first before I buy.

    Doesn't mean much - FF13 got a perfect score from them. In fact, isn't Famitsu partially owned by SE? I'd wait for other reviews first.

    No one doubted Famitsu wouldn't give a SE game a high score. I'd be more surprised if they had given it a 30.

    According to adrianseng (http://andriasang.com/comz82/famitsu_reviews/) it got three 10s and one 9. Which is funny because the same article says the reviews mention that XIII-2 fixes the problems from the first. But if the first had issues, why was it given a 39/40? But still, it does show some promise.

    FFXIII got fairly good reviews (8s and 9s) and I would imagine FFXIII-2 going a step further.
    I see it getting 9s.

    They gave 39/40 for FFXIII so this doesn't tell much to me.
    I do believe FFXIII-2 is better thought.

    They're handing out perfect scores way too easily... This is just flat-out ridiculous. I guess the scales of a perfect game compared to a crappy game has really changed.

    What do you mean? the score it self or the legitimacy of the score/source?

    He means that Famitsu rates anything SE highly. FFXIII which fans generally detest scored a 39/40 from them....I remember when Famitsu was one of the harder markers in the gaming industry...

    Theres not a single gamer anywhere that should take this review seriously because Famitsu is the most FF fanboy indunced organization for scores in the world.

    If FFXV came out and feature two bisexual hyenas and a tiny elephant they would still give it a perfect scrore.

    XIII-2 looks like a big apology for the original game. The only thing that's 40/40 to me are Serahs boobs poping out of her chest in some cutscenes.

    I've decided I'm getting this game. The combat might not be worth anything but everything else seems to be there.

    The problem with lost odyssey was it felt old and brought nothing new, which I actually prefer but hey, and it had a few other problems and the va was....well u know, so 6 & 7s is about right
