Famitsu 360 gave it the 34/30.

Eh, it's pretty good. What I expect from Tales games in most reviews really.

No. That's the Famitsu 360 score. This is the main Famitsu score.

They've used quite a few artists actually. But this game was only published by them.

Not really. It's been getting niche Japanese gamers for over a year. After all, the 500k or whatever it is 360 owners are definitely the hardcore crowd that those developers are targetting. The Wii fanbase... not so much. And the PS3's probably too expensive to develop for considering it's only 4x as large as the 360 fanbase while keeping probably the same amount of hardcore gamers as the 360 fanbase.

Think of it as an electronic novel with music and movies mixed in to enhance the experience.

Someone on GAF did a review of the PS3 version a while back.

There already are additional scenarios as DLC for PS3, dunno if the Wii will be getting new ones though, it could just be the ones on PSN included in the Wii game.

That's not Shin Megami tensei IV, Atlus! Quit teasing me, ARGH!

Has a release date for the Fire Emblem game even been given for the US? Hell, is it even announced?
