Famitsu reviews five PS3 launch games
Some mates over at the E-mpire Forums have scrounged up what appear to be Japanese reviews of five PS3 launch titles by way of Famitsu magazine. Here are the goods on each:
Resistance: Fall of Man = 9, 8, 8, 8
Standard FPS gameplay
Excellent netplay
Very high standard of next-generation
Ridge Racer 7 = 9, 9, 9, 9
Totally satisfactory
The amount of content is totally satisfying
The high quality of the graphics and sound are very pleasing
Mobile Suit Gundam: Crossfire = 8, 8, 8, 8
Excellent models of Mobile Suits
Opinions on the game are divided because it relies heavily on accurate input
The systems are problematic
Great textures
Tons of optional and unlockable content
Overall it's satisfying even though opinions are divided on it
Miyazato (Sega) Golf Club = 7, 7, 7, 7
Good tempo
You can't accurately determine where your shot will fall
Doesn't really look next-generation
Genji: Days of the Blade = 7, 7, 7, 8
Camera sucks, but looks great
Challenging for beginners
Good amount of content
Good controls
If said reviews hold up (and assuming they're legit), it looks like PS3 has some launch winners in both Resistance and Ridge Racer 7. Too bad more people won't be able to play them at launch due to limited console availability.
