Famitsu loves Day of Crisis, gives it lots of points photo

Whenever Famitsu reviews something, it's news. I don't know why, but it is! This time around, the world's most brightly colored and eye-searing magazine has gotten its hands on long-delayed Wii game Disaster: Day of Crisis and given it a whopping 34/40 points.

The game has been on the DL for a very long time before suddenly popping up a few weeks ago and saying "O hai, I'm almost finished!" I was skeptical of such shenanigans, but according to Famitsu's recommendation, it would seem that Disaster actually won't be the overdeveloped mess that its production cycle would suggest. 

Wii fans have another videogame to play, then. Mark it on your calenders, kids!

I know this game is supposed to come out on Oct. 24th of this year, I just hope that Nintendo keeps up with their promise and comes out with it this year.

Ugh!! Nintendo wasn't supposed to be releasing any games that I would want. I just can't afford it. Nothings stopping me from picking up LittleBigPlanet on the 21st, other than Death itself, so I'll have to wait till maybe the new year to play this.

I've found Famitsu reviewers in have some shitty taste in games. haze, an 8, really? I guess if you've never played an FPS in your life. It just seems that too many games (especially Nintendo games) are overrated.

I gotta say, the Wii is really starting to come into it's own. I counted 14 releases that are interesting enough to justify the purchase, and the library of games still to come such as De Blob, Captain Rainbow, Mad World and now Day of Crisis is growing...

I stopped caring what Famitsu says after they gave Haze a a 32/40.

They inflate MANY scores seemingly at random.

With Famitsu 34/40 is like 40/100.
