The notoriously picky Japanese game mag Famitsu has filed its reviews for PS3 launch titles. The scale is 1-10, and most fall in the arch nemesis IGN 7-9 range (though, Famitsu is willing to dip below that). Here's the round-up, plus the mag's comments:

• Miyazato Golf Club: 7, 7, 7, 7
• Good temp. Can't accurately determine where your shot will fall. Doesn't really look next-gen.
• Genji 2: Days of the Blade: 7, 7, 7, 8
• 
  Bad camera, but looks great. Challenging for noobs. Good controls and good amount of content.
• Resistance: Fall of Man: 9, 8, 8, 8
• 
  Standard FPS gameplay. Excellent netplay. Very high standard of next-gen.
• Mobile Suit Gundam: Crossfire: 8, 8, 8, 8
• 
  Superb Mobile Suits models. Great textures. Systems are problematic. Tons of options and unlockables. Opinions on this title are divided, apparently.
• Ridge Racer 7: 9, 9, 9, 9
• 
  Total satisfaction. Loads of content. High quality graphics and sound.

Looks like RR7 and Resistance are the must gets, which I'll be picking up here in Japan. Yous? Brian Ashcraft
