Famitsu:

10/10/10/10

Dengeki:

90/90/95/90

Excellent word of mouth in japanese boards.

EDIT:

Famitsu gave it a PERFECT SCORE?! Damn. Now that is impressive.

Which is what Simo is so proud to display in his avatar description ^__^!!

Sup Simo.

Also, what order are the ratings in for Famitsu? Ie. Gameplay, music, controls, visuals etc. I'm curious because this will obviously help me understand reviews better with the Famitsu system of rating.

Each rate = one different reviewer. ;)

Those summons look awful. Someone took the mystical beast thing way too far. Why can't we just have Bahamut and Leviathan, like normal people.

I actually think the summons are pretty cool. It's refreshing to see something new rather than the same old Ifrit, Shiva, Leviathan, etc.

So I take it that there are 4 regular Japanese reviewers at Famitsu who review? That's actually a pretty neat and more objective way to review, instead of leaning the work load on one individual to take note of all the game's elements. Do these guys have like a "bio" anywhere that I could read? I'm interested in what these guys' bios are.

If they wanted to be objective, they would have a multi-cultural review board. The Japanese are a hive-mind, and all think alike.

Regarding the summons:

It's pretty neat that some of these are the bosses from the previous FFs. Also, no Bahamut? :( Unless the list isn't complete.

I do like the "stapled" Shiva, Ifrit and the gang" and wish that these new summons were added on, but then the more summons might cause the player to lose interest in them quicker since there's more selection, therefore making the newer/older summons trivial and redundant.

There ARE other reviews and notes from other sources posted in this thread.
I don't think these guys would be exercising group think here. I really don't see where multiculturalism fits into reviewing a game. So a white guy, black guy, hispanic, and Asian all agree that AC04 is good (or in Megalith's terms, "A Game made from God, why lie"). I'd see this the same as four white guys reviewing the same game. So even if these four individuals did rate exactly the same as the next guy, most gamers would also check up on other reviews too from gamerankings, amirite.

Has anyone beaten the game yet?

I'm just curious about how well developed the endgame material is. I'm not looking for any real spoilers or anything, just wondering about the amount of stuff you have left to do after defeating the last boss. Bonus dungeons? Matsuno is pretty good at adding some nice bonus material or easter eggs into his games, I'm hoping FFXII is no different.

FFT didn't have anything after the last Boss. There are a lot of easter eggs in FFXII from past FFs, FFT and VS.

Oh I see, that's pretty neat. I guess they might have one for Bahamut.

Deep Dungeon? Sure, it might not technically occur after the last boss, but it wasn't required to finish the game. Hence, bonus material.

As for looking at those FFXII airships:

Spoiler:

Ifrit and Leviathan look most appealing to me. I like how they do look futuristic but still blend into the "medival fantasy" setting so it won't look like the Frederation fleet c/o Star Trek all assuden just jump into WWI technology sorta deal. I do like "futuristic ships" like the capital ships from Xenosaga and other space operas, but these ships are very nicely crafted to suit the game's atmosphere.

Minor Spoilers:

That's what the Quests and Monster Hunts are for, you also only get 5 of the 13 Summons in the Main story. The other 8 you have to find you self, and there is also two Super Bosses Yaumart (Who has 20million HP) and Omega MK XII.

Thanks a lot for it but first of all it's cut from the bottom and it's not in high resolution for good quality printing =(. Thanks anyway.
