It looks like Japan’s most influential gaming magazine, Famitsu, has reviewed Final Fantasy XIII. A screenshot has been leaked and, thanks to finalfantasy-xiii.net, the reviewers’ comments have been translated.

Getting a score of 39/40, most of the writers agreed that it’s a beautiful title that has a great story with plenty of content (I’m guessing over 40+ hours?) and praised the combat system. Hop on over to their site to get a full low down of the translations. Below is a screenshot of the Famitsu magazine showing the 39/40 score.

I’m well aware that Famitsu comes under heavy fire anytime they review AAA titles due to their inconsistencies or whatever the critics might say, but a review is a review and no one can argue that Final Fantasy XIII is one of the premiere titles of 2010. This just makes waiting until March that much harder.
