I'm taken aback by that low ass score for Human Fall Flat unless the Switch port is trash or something. It's a very fun coop game.

As expected. They tend not to give bad scores to big games developed in Japan. Still, it's nice to at least have confirmation that it's not garbage.

Damn. So hyped. I can't believe it is this close.

Is it supposed to be good? I have it on Steam and it seemed like a reasonably playable bundle trash game. Maybe that's just due to the awful name.

I only played the first three levels.

How seriously do we take Famitsu scores these days? Haven't they been called out before for being moneyhats?

I have to wonder why Famitsu scores actually matter. 70% of people come into threads to post memes and assumptions based on their previous scores.

Not surprising since the beta was great, even though Famitsu scores don't mean much.

Capcom must be thrilled the check did not bounce.

The beta was lacklustre, i'm struggling to believe the full game is 10 material.

It's not really a well designed puzzle game; its fun mostly comes from hijinks with friends. It's on par with Gang Beasts for me.

Not even as good as Nintendodogs. At least Dragon Ball Fighterz might be good this month to entertain me.

I'm expecting high 8s, 9s and 10s when the official reviews drop. The beta was fantastic. People who have been hating on this game are going to really eat their words. I see this game being the most successful game in the franchise and easily giving the series the mainstream exposure it has always deserved.

For the most part, Famitsu scores tend to align with Metacritic scores. The reviews are basically irrelevant since there isn't much there besides the score but the number itself isn't more laughable than any other source that gets posted here.

The only reliable score from Famitsu is when they give absurdly low score, which is when the game is truly shit.
Anything above 30 is usually good game, although even that became questionable when they gave perfect 40 to Jojo game which was panned by pretty much everyone else.

At the very least the score confirms it's a good game. Have Famistu ever given a high score to a game that was utterly terrible? and no Nintendogs was good for what it was.
