I figured the fact that is was arguably the biggest AAA Japanese release of the year would have led to some... leniency on the part of reviewers.
Maybe that call-out by the AC3 dude actually caused some people in the media to sit-up and take notice of their own internalized bias.
Whatever the case, I would recommend most gamers stay away from the game until a significant price drop. If you're looking for a survival horror game.... I don't know, what's a good survival horror game these days? If you're looking for a good third-person shooter (which is what the game seems to want to be despite it's outdated design) then just pick-up or replay Gears of War 3 or something.
Disappointing, all around.
