the famitsu canon

games awarded 40/40 by famitsu

'shamitsu', you say? insanely arbitrary metric, you say? little more than an advertising service for publishers, you say? well, all that might be true. but have you considered how hard it is to find four people who all give the same stuff 10/10

FF13-2 being one of the few 10/10s is...certainly a Thing.

Lol dudes really gave new soup a 40/40 instead of galaxy, that's kinda disappointing.

there was a 60% chance of kid icarus uprising getting this score. this is because there are 4 reviewers and left handed people apparently make up 12% of the population. not bad
Thinking about it, if I was a Famitsu reviewer, practically nothing would be able to get a perfect score due to how picky I often am.

Always have a little chuckle when I remember Jojo ASB's a 40/40.

I think Brawl is the best Smash ever made, and even I can't conceive anyone in their right minds giving it a 10/10, let alone 4 people. XD

i dont give a fuck how disreputable it is if the publication says uprising is a perfect game then its high journalism
