no problem, now if only nintendo would get off their ass and do a game where peach and daisy team up(that wasnt involving some retarded gimmick and was actually a good game based on it's own design/merit), we'd be on to something

Each reviewer gives a score from one to ten (ten being best). The scores of the four reviewers are then added up with a possible score of forty. Famitsu reviewers are unmercifully tough, and it is extremely difficult for a game to receive a perfect score of forty. Famitsu Wave DVD does not grade video games.

My bullshit meter just exploded.

The truth is Famitsu gives the scores based on their relation to the company and how many ads they take out in the mag, which is why smaller companies will never get perfect scores. They also send these scores to the company before publishing and allow the company to bribe them with more ads to raise the scores. This has been said by several ex-staff members and if you check the scores it all adds up. Merciless my ass.

Though from the looks of it I wouldn't be surprised if this game does deserve straight 9s.

I wasn't endorsing Famitsu at all, I was just wondering if Sl1p was right about the scores and he wasn't. He was just so dang rude and cocky to that guy for no reason and I decided to see what the actual scores were.

No disrespect to EGM, really. I just thought it funny that you'd rip on Famitsu when EGM is (or at least was) a Famitsu clone, you write for 1Up, and EGM and 1Up are joined at the hip.

So yeah, this looks mighty impressive, and is just another game in a long line of ones that I want for the DS.
