Famitsu had two full pages about the ever promising Lost Planet this week. The game will be released on december 21 in Japan, and it's of course already preordered :)
I personally wouldn't base how a game is from Famitsu scores and instead, wait for a realistic reviewer to show their views on it because giving DOAX2 a higher score isn't something Gamespot would do thats for sure.

of course they wouldn't
but Gamespot also reviews for a western audience. an audience that generally doesn't appreciate dating sims (which is at their heart what Xtreme 1 and 2 were. hell, just look at what the achievements for Xtreme 2 actually were).
Famitsu doesn't review for some universal global audience. Famitsu reviews for their native japanese audience. its as "realistic" as any western reviewer but they're reviewing for a different audience with different tastes and standards. just because you don't share those tastes don't make them any less real. and frankly Famitsu's not reviewing for your tastes in the first place.

Yup you tell him !
This game looks nice, but i was bored by the SP demo a few months back.
Well Noxian got me there, but still, people shouldnt use famitsu scores to decide if a western game will be good or not compared to a japanese dating sim. But i'm not going to argue, he is totally correct.
Is there any other notable/respected Japanese media who's review scores have any kind of importance then? I always see Famitsu scores but never anybody else.
Oh man i cant wait for this game , the online play totally kicks ass man i love it..I dont care for them and their sucky ass rating , i know im still getting it when it comes out next month....

I don't pay attention to the Japanese most of the time anyways... most things they like I know I'll hate, or find horribly creepy.
I hate this game,sp was allright,but i never got into it.
Yes the control works,the graphic is superb.and still i felt nothing :S
Good showcase for sonyfanboys though,who all said it looks fantastic and next-gen when visiting my house.
The multiplayer?
I just tried the demo,and the sp,Mp clearly tells you its under dev,but the mp was slow,and boring.
I hate this game.
Sorry i just do.
Technially it looks fantastic,but its so damn boring,and i had so high hopes for it.
Obs,i do understand that many of you others found joy,like or gonna like it,and im just one opinion so im not saying its crap.
But ----->>> myself <----- found no joy with this game...i hated it.
The battles online felt dumb and slow,and the aim is very very slow in MP.

Regardless in any respect DOAX2 should not have gotten a higher score than LP. Just shows you what kind of publication Fatmitsu is. NO, LP is not aimed for western audiences only, it's aimed for a worldwide audience. So dont bring up stupid excuses.

First you can change the speed, of course you would have never thought of that, we forgive you. Second on the single player they do not give you a back drop on the story so you dont know what you're doing and what the point is of doing it.
I never foutgh ot that?
Now why would i want a slow aiming speed,when i didn't got it in the SP?
You gonna tell me that living 8 enemie players,are not bigger threat then,some bugs in SP?
Then Capcom is retarded.
The combat is slow and boring online.
The hooking device make people just run away whenever they are losing also.
This game doesnt even deserve 30/40... ofc just my opinion.
Whatever the story is in SP,the sp demo was repetive and boring after awhile and the enviorment was depressing and boring.

I would like to see other publications aswell.
@ Jollipop, you just like to go against the masses no matter what, dont you. If you see something in the forums getting praise you have to hate it, and if you see something that people are hating, you have to defend it. WHY?

So if that was the case i would hate Blue Dragon.
I Never said i hated LP either, chill out, i just said the demo was boring, i have said this for months, the final game may be different, why should my opinion effect you in anyway ?
I fully agree,look at Jolli he bought sonic and PUS for 360 and think Gears of war is Ugly and bad,you like his game taste?
Ofc not,so what he says shouldn't bother you.

famtisu sucks ass. They gave DOAX2 a Higher score than LP...
Maybe the Japanese enjoy this type of game. there are plenty of games released over there that publishers would dare try to ship in europe or the US...
