These are reviews from small time reviewers and one of them was extremely generic and rushed out but gave the game a 90 which is bullshit. Watched the first hour of Arise footage and it doesn't seem that great. The game is likely more of a 80 than a 90. 80 is still kind of great, but a more honest score for this game. <cite>Number090684 posted [p:957845999] in Tales of A...
