Agree with FFXIII not being that great compared to other FF. If it was a stand-alone game without any ties to FF, people maybe wouldn't have judged it this harshly.
Other than that, I think that nearly perfect scores are still a sign for a good game. Tales games are always nice (except spin-offs like the ToS one, I never got over that

), and ToS was one of my favourite RPGs ever. Tales has an reputation + paired with a good rating + PS3 should mean high sales and exposure for Progress too. Opening sequences are always beautiful, so there's a high chance that people actually listen to the song and decide to buy it. (I didn't know till now that there was a song for FFXIII, but I always liked to listen to the Tales songs before I started playing).
