Default Bayonetta grabs a 40 from Famitsu

Link.

I'm shrugging my shoulders though...I'm sure it's good, I've read enough on it, but I just don't think their '40' is as such as it was a long time ago. I mean 3 40s this year already.

I stopped believing in them when I read that Super Smash Bros. Brawl got a 40. It's somewhat short of perfect in my opinion.

I was lost when they gave FF12 a 40, honestly.

Because of the blah-blah-bitch right.

Not saying Bayonetta is bad. At all. I'm just not sure if it's 40-worthy.

Gaming publications don't have the clout they once used to have back in the days of pre-56k internet. Now everybody has instant access to enough varied user reviews and streaming online videos thus making the magazine journalist's purpose all that much more irrelevant.

That's not to say Bayonetta didn't deserve the 40 but people still retain the notion that when a publication gives a perfect score to a game that they're implying it's a perfect game. People oughta quit making a stink of things just because it was a perfect game to the reviewers.

The kinds of things that publishers accompany reviewer copies with leaves little wonder to why any reviewer nowadays will show any form of bias even to the hardened proponent of journalistic ethics.

i.e. Moneymoneymoneymooooney~

Not to mention that I've heard a lot of negatives on the PS3 port in comparison to the 360 version...which is important to me because I was cheap enough to go buy a PS3 but not a 360.

in comparison maybe since the game was likely developed on x360 and ported over, however it looks great on ps3 so there's nothing really to care about

I still bang my head against a wall to this notion. I mean, really? THE LICENSE GRID WAS SUCH TOTAL FAIL.

I stopped caring about Famitu's views on "perfection" when Nintendogs got a 40.

Guess what? The 40 was for the 360 version.

The PS3 version? It got a 38.

...Sad face.

40. 38. Does it really matter? PS3 version probably has some slow-mo and stuff, but out of that it'll be the same game.

lolol famitsu's 40s
