They gave Demon's Souls a 29 and then their readers ended up voting it the best PS3 game of all time. Japanese reviewers are even worse than Western reviewers.
>You gonna say FF16 is an inferior game to FF13-2?
Probably but most games are. Famitsu have given genuinely games that aren't good perfect scores so that's a weird example to single out
Famitsu is such a fricking meme honestly. They always have been. But I guess every generation needs to learn that themselves. People will seriously look at these scores and think "yeah this a reputable scoring system."
>39/40
Wow, a score worse than >Tears of the Kingdom >Ghost of Tsushima >Death Stranding >Street Fighter 6 >Metal Gear Solid V >Final Fantasy XIII-2 >Skyward Sword >New Super Mario Bros Wii >Nintendogs
among others.
Ironically enough the Famitsu sales thread, but even then, it should still be in the top 30s. He might be referring to it's debut week where it was in third place beaten by a Nintendo exclusive game. (Sorry, I forgot it's name)

I think he's referring to the physical sales in Japan but I'm pretty sure it performed fine no?
It sold less than a lazy overpriced port of a niche series, despite being on multiple platforms. >02./00.

It has nothing to with how scores work, but 13-2's problems come far later, so if you were a journalist looking at the stuff they gave to the press and your two days of playing you would only see a fine FF with monster collecting.
Famitsu is one of the most random ones for sure. You can maybe see logic in Edge/Gamespot/IGN 10s but I can never understand how Famitsu has 4 people all think shit like Jojo's Bizarre Adventure All Stars is a 40/40. Not even the re-release, the original
There is a general trend since ~2010 of giving good scores to high profile AAA titles automatically - regardless of the quality. Journalists don't want to bite the hand that feeds them, there is little integrity left. They just pick one or two releases every year they collectively shit on to keep up the pretense of being fair.
What do we do now? Allow FF16 to win by a razor-thin margin and inadvertently admit that it's just as shit as FF15 or dismiss Famitsu ratings to save face?
>heh famitsu scores? they don't matter >anyway look at all these other famitsu scores that were higher, these ones matter because... well just because okay?!
Ganker is populated by drooling morons.

The frick is wrong with them?
>39/40
so it's mid then
That was never in doubt.
Their 39s have alot more pedigree than their 40s lmao
What games have they given 40's to?
Here
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Famitsu_scores
Didn't Slop of the Kingdom get a perfect 40/40?
Final gaygasy XVI couldn't even tie that?
What were all the homosexual scenes even for then?
Nintendo bonus prease understand
Did Street Shitter 6 also get a Nintendo Bonus?
Capcom bonus
famitsu always gives good scores to AAA games
>Famitsu
Bro this isn't the early '00s they give 36+'s out like candy.
Frick's sake they gave FF13-2 a 40. You gonna say FF16 is an inferior game to FF13-2?
Yeah
I'M PUTTIN THE WORD OUT
They gave Demon's Souls a 29 and then their readers ended up voting it the best PS3 game of all time. Japanese reviewers are even worse than Western reviewers.
Cope ff15 is officially worse than ff16
Yes. Unironically.
>FF16 is an inferior game to FF13-2?
Yes actually
>You gonna say FF16 is an inferior game to FF13-2?
Probably but most games are. Famitsu have given genuinely games that aren't good perfect scores so that's a weird example to single out
XIII-2 was pretty decent, so no doubt about that.
>pretty decent earns a perfect score
whao
That's beside the point. Famitsu scores are moronic regardless.
>lower than skyrim
asiaticdevs should keep to their pedo highschooler sims and leave fantasy westerngawds
-1 because it was an action game lmaooo. Didn't know Ganker had a representative over there.
no one cares about famitsu scores anymore. They always give out good scores now
>Westaboo homosexuals infamous for giving shit reviews give Westaboo dogshit a high score.
Famitsu, the c**ts that rated Death Stranding near perfect because Kojimbles put their boss in a the game. Game Reviewers deserve a whipping.
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Famitsu_scores
>trusting them ever
>nintendogs
I forgot that existed
nintendogs does what bubsy don't
The disparity between the games with near-perfect scores and the games with perfect scores is jarring
Famitsu is such a fricking meme honestly. They always have been. But I guess every generation needs to learn that themselves. People will seriously look at these scores and think "yeah this a reputable scoring system."
Why DID FF13-2 get a perfect score? I only ever played 13 and thought it was just okay. Was its sequel really that much better?
Nope, its even worse if you can believe it. As for why they gave it a perfect score, frick if I know
>As for why they gave it a perfect score, frick if I know
Box says final fantasy. Asians aren't big on thinking for themselves
of course they gave ff16 a great score too. there is no evaluation.
>Pokémon Black and White
Unovabros redeemed.
So its worse than FFXIII-2?
>39/40
Kneel Squarecucks
Barry is lost
xv scored the same as ff7
Litrtrally just Japanese IGN, paid reviews
>Lost to fricking Nintendogs
Talk about the Absolute STATE of play.
Nintendogs is great though. All the fun of a dog but with none of the pain of knowing it only lives a fraction of a human's lifespan.
>39/40
Wow, a score worse than
>Tears of the Kingdom
>Ghost of Tsushima
>Death Stranding
>Street Fighter 6
>Metal Gear Solid V
>Final Fantasy XIII-2
>Skyward Sword
>New Super Mario Bros Wii
>Nintendogs
among others.
>Gomi-tsu
Square Enix pays them to overrate the shit out of their kusoge.
doesn't famitsu rate everything high these days?
>nintendogs is better than ff16
wow
XV got 38/40 famitsu ain't what it used to be
Didn't Famitsu give FFXII like 36/40 or something? Why does anyone care about them?
XII, along with XIII-2 (and maybe Vagrant Story) are the only FF games that got perfect score.
It gave FFXII a 40, brah. It was a big deal at the time, but since then the review scores have really trended upwards.
ALL STAR BATTLE CONFIRMED A BETTER GAME THAN XVI
Kys op
Back in my day, a high Famitsu score actually meant something. Nowadays they'll give high marks to anything popular.
>already gave out 2 40's this year alone to Zelda and SF6
>SF6
That didn't stop Street Fighter 6 from flopping hard in Japan.
Famitsu's scores are irrelevant.
>Street Fighter 6 from flopping hard in Japan.
Any source to back that?

Go to bed, Eric.
It's joever
FF13-2 got a 40/40
LMAO
It has nothing to with how scores work, but 13-2's problems come far later, so if you were a journalist looking at the stuff they gave to the press and your two days of playing you would only see a fine FF with monster collecting.
famitsu is owned by nintendo
they gave Wind waker and MGS4 perfect ratings, famitsu doesnt know SHIT
Filtered
13-2 also got a 40
Famitsu is one of the most random ones for sure. You can maybe see logic in Edge/Gamespot/IGN 10s but I can never understand how Famitsu has 4 people all think shit like Jojo's Bizarre Adventure All Stars is a 40/40. Not even the re-release, the original

its ok when it concerns nintendo
Isn't famitsu sponsored by major japanese game publishers or some shit like that?
nintendo owns them
Yes Sony own some shares
frick off eric

>couldnt equalize with TotK
FFsisters..
Final Fantasy 15 got a 38/40, just as a comparison.
>couldnt top Skyrim
TODDCHADS, WE MOVE
That's not a score, that's their IQ.
Famitsu gave ff13 a 39/40 too
XV bros, we only got a 38.
ITS OVER
Famitsu is the Paula Abdul of AAA games (figure that one out zoomers).
Not a mutt, you're gonna have to explain that one.
lol
What do we do now? Allow FF16 to win by a razor-thin margin and inadvertently admit that it's just as shit as FF15 or dismiss Famitsu ratings to save face?
Please, give me a fricking manual already!
Here's your manual tripgay.
Any FF beyond VI is shit.
If it aint 40/40 then it's slop
It's FF so it's always slosh
Its a measly one point better than XV and that game was fricking awful
Sounds like doomers won to me
Based
keyed
I wanna play this but I don't wanna buy a PS5. Such is life.
Damn the Barry discord cope has already begun. you can see the doomergays trying to disassociate Lmao.
FF Type-0 scored 39/40
>FAMITSU
who cares lol those chinks aren't even counted in Metacritics
>heh famitsu scores? they don't matter
>anyway look at all these other famitsu scores that were higher, these ones matter because... well just because okay?!
Ganker is populated by drooling morons.
It's almost like people are saying they're useless because shit games scored even higher.
Give it up Barry.
least moronic schizoposter
Continue coping.
Media praise means nothing because it's bought
>Famitsu score
last relevant in like 2002. Same thing as IGN for past 20 years.

The frick is wrong with them?
13-2 is also a 40/40 put some fricking RESPECT on Vanille's game.
>Vanille's game
No can do carpet muncher.
FFXII chads are still undefeated
>same score as FF7R
7Rhatersisters???
>x"sisters"
exactly the type of person ff16 is for
If we don't get a 10/10 everywhere else, a "literally just buy it" from gameranx and an absolute recommendation from Skill up it's over.
Famitsu is literally Japanese IGN. They gave Skyrim and GTAV perfect scores.
>SF6 had a higher score
It's so over for FF16. Zelda is now the undeniable GOTY.
yay
