Famitsu scores for February 20th, 2013 – includes Dynasty Warriors 8 and Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Plus

A post on Neogaf has revealed this week’s Famitsu scores, including results for some of the bigger titles coming out this week in Japan.

Here’s the full list of scores:

  • Da Capo III Plus (PSP) – 7/8/7/6 [28/40]
  • Dragon Ball Heroes: Ultimate Mission (3DS) – 8/9/8/8 [33/40]
  • Dynasty Warriors 8 (PS3) – 9/9/9/9 [36/40]
  • Macross 30: Ginga o Tsunagu Utagoe (PS3) – 8/8/8/8 [32/40]
  • Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Plus (PSV) – 8/8/9/8 [33/40]
  • Professor Layton and the Azran Legacies (3DS) – 8/8/8/8 [32/40]
  • Risen 2: Dark Waters (PS3) – 7/7/7/7 [28/40]
  • Risen 2: Dark Waters (360) – 7/7/7/7 [28/40]
  • Senran Kagura: Shinovi Versus (PSV) – 8/9/8/7 [32/40]
  • Shining Ark (PSP) – 9/8/8/8 [33/40]
  • Stellar Theater Portable (PSP) – 7/8/7/6 [28/40]
  • Sharin no Kuni, Himawari no Shoujo (PS3) – 9/8/7/8 [32/40]
  • Touch Detective: Nameko Daihanshoku (3DS) – 7/7/6/6 [26/40]

It’s worth noting that many of these titles probably won’t make their way to the US and PAL regions, but the score for Dynasty Warriors 8 is rather high. Granted, the magazine gave a similar score to DW7, but we’re still glad to see it score so highly as the score bodes well for the US release later this year. The score for Ninja Gaiden is good, but unspectacular, and compares favorably to other games in the series from the magazine.

More information as we get it.
