Red Dead Revolver got a 31/40? Wow...
Looks like Namco X Capcom is just another average. Surprise, surprise...

Yeah, I'm glad to see that Prime 2 is receiving good scores. It's just a shame that the game probably won't even sell 100,000 copies. Metroid needs more love in Japan :(

It's good to see Metroid Prime 2 score so well in Japan... since it seems like traditionally FPS games aren't very popular over there, and from what I've heard Metroid never took off there.
Namco x Capcom? This one had me intrigued, since I'm tired of Capcom crossovers, but this ISN'T a fighter. I wonder how many non-Japanese understand a character as obscure as Bravo Man.

Dog's Life = Namco x Capcom.
Word to that, Dog's Life was fun.

Oh, thanks. Those games sound...interesting, I guess. I'm sure Japan eats it up.

Great to see Hanjuku scoring well. I hope there's an OST release soon. versus 3D was one of the best Uematsu scores ever.
I'm kind of let down by the straight 7s on Namco X Capcom, but after reading the Pros/Cons that someone translated on the GameFAQs board, it seems that the greatest flaw was that they expected it to be a more traditional strategy-RPG....and it wasn't. Lack of a character database is kind of a bummer, though. Still, no mention of the music - I'm hoping it's full of excellent remixes.
Ys IV is amusing - I'm sure a few other people remember the embarassing 19/40 the Ys III remake earned, so it's nice to know that Taito didn't screw IV up even worse. With any luck, the Ys V remake might actually be great!

Hanjuku is the same series as the Egg Monster Heroes DS game.

What is that PS2 Square Enix game? "Hanjuku" or whatever.

Yeah, traditionally I have a hard time being impressed with anything less than 30/40 from Famitsu, but then again I never was interested in this one myself.

Bah, but whatever, it's not coming here anyway.

Namco x Capcom: 7s across the board isn't bad, but I have a feeling people aren't gonna be pleased with it.
