I trust the man who says there's no Lenneth review!

 

[Syb]

Children of Bomba

 

[Calidor]

CoM: wow... just wow..

btw the lack of lenneth score means they are pulling a Dirge of cerberus?

 

[Randam_Hajile]

Melty Blood Act Cadenza for the PS2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG! Sweet! When?

 

[Error]

CoM: wow... just wow..

btw the lack of lenneth score means they are pulling a Dirge of cerberus?

why would they? unless SE fucked up the port, I don't see why they would hold down the review for VP:L

 

[mr jones]

I'm not quite getting this - how is 30/40 bad? Isn't that 75%?

 

[BlueTsunami]

I'm not quite getting this - how is 30/40 bad? Isn't that 75%?

It supposed to be low for Famitsu

 

[LAMBO]

Oh damn they made Samurai Warriors 2! Will it come stateside?

 

[VOOK]

Wow, COM scored low.

It'll still truckloads no?

 

[RevenantKioku]

Oh damn they made Samurai Warriors 2! Will it come stateside?

If we're lucky, no.

 

[Bebpo]

It supposed to be low for Famitsu

It's not supposed to be low...it is.

And Lenneth isn't going to be reviewed just like how Suikoden I+II weren't reviewed just like how Breath of Fire 3 wasn't reviewed...because they are just ports. No point in reviewing them.

 

[Kobun Heat]

god fucking dammit

 

[Matix]

It's not supposed to be low...it is.

If COM wasn't so hyped to hell, the score would be acceptable.

 

[jj984jj]

It's so beautiful. How could it turn out to be awful?

If COM wasn't so hyped to hell, the score would be acceptable.

That's not true, two sevens are never acceptable by Famitsu standards.

 

[BlueTsunami]

It's not supposed to be low...it is.

That sucks, hopefully the PS2 one delivers

 

[Matix]

It's so beautiful. How could it turn out to be awful?

OMFG, that is eye-watering gorgeous. Again, FUCK YOU FAMITSU !!

 

[RevenantKioku]

As long as Children of Mana is above Sword of Mana, which I found to be tolerable at best, I shall be pleased.

 

[antipode]

 

[metropolis]

"It's so beautiful. How could it turn out to be awful?"

i don't believe it's proven to be awful just based on one magazine score...

 

[chaostrophy]

damn devil summoner scored 30....

IIRC DDS 1 and 2 didn't score that well in Famitsu either, and they were awesome. Hopefully this is just a case of Atlus not being able to afford moneyhats.

 

[taddpoll]

I'm still gonna get it. 30/40 isn't bad, I don't care what anyone says. Get the game because you want to, not because some Jap mag, albeit respected, says its "bad".
Not every game has to be perfect. I'm sure it'll be enjoyable.

 

[Beezy]

Get Dirge of Cerberus while you're at it.

 

[sprsk]

30 isnt awful!

anyway im glad to know sengoku musou 2 rocks.

 

[Bebpo]

IIRC DDS 1 and 2 didn't score that well in Famitsu either, and they were awesome. Hopefully this is just a case of Atlus not being able to afford moneyhats.

DDS1 and 2 scored around 32/33s which is the normal area for rpgs. This is kinda low.

Seems the complaints were mainly high encounter rate + they didn't like the real-time action of the battle system.

 

[BlueTsunami]

Get Dirge of Cerberus while you're at it.

OHHHHHHHHHH SNAP
