inFamous – Euro versions to get English language patch

infamous71

Following news this morning that Sony was to release the Dutch, French, German, Spanish and Italian version of inFamous without English language support, SCEE has just told VG247 that the firm has u-turned on the decision – English is to be patched in at a later date.

“Following feedback from the community, we realise that there is a strong demand for English language on the Dutch, French, German, Spanish and Italian version of InFamous,” said the company in a statement.

“To remedy this situation, we will be providing a patch shortly, which will add English language to the game. As soon as the patch is ready, we will ensure that everyone is informed.”

The PS3 exclusive releases at the end of May.

Doesn’t anyone else find it amusing that one of the reasons games are released in Europe that much later than the US is due to language regionalisation etc. Whats the ****ing point if they all want English anyhow.

Until they patch in Mockney I ain’t buyin’!

The original decision was bloody stupid and I still don’t understand what their thinking was.

Stupid decision, but at least they’ve been prepared to admit it and are going to remedy the situation.

Also; wouldn’t it just have been cheaper to do one Euro version with all the languages on? Surely BR would have enough capacity?
