I'm actually quite surprised! Do you think that one is coming given that this is the most popular entry in the franchise history? I think someone on the staff should be making time for turn based RPGs.
The game came out like 2 months ago (March 24) and from what I've read so far, Atelier Ryza 3 is getting good reception...especially on Steam. I guess Gamespot didn't get the review code or just wasn't interest in the game itself.
I'll have to pick this up on Steam at some point as I'm kinda tied up with Star Wars: Jedi Survivor, Dead Island 2, and much more games need to be play.
Their output for JRPG reviews is very low so dont expect one unless it comes from Square or Atlus.
Bit of a shame one of the reasons I loved coming to gamespot was jrpg reviews. I only know of Legend of Heroes (LoH) series due to GS review LoH: A Tear of Vermillion on the PSP. Terrible game personally but ended up following the series and bought the excellent LoH: Trails in the Sky which GS also reviewed.
Much like most of Gust's projects, Atelier just isn't very popular. So I doubt you'll see ANY review from most sites anytime soon. It doesn't help that they take forever to beat.
