I have the localized version of Stalker. Differences are merely aesthetic as the box cover, manual and disc cover are all in BM (Translation is pretty decent) but the game itself is in English and is the same as the regular version.

QUOTE(jason83 @ May 15 2007, 08:45 PM) hi, honestly i wouldnt want to have even the boxes to be in BM, yeah maybe it is just the back part but looking at it, as a games collector (sort of), i feel something is not right.... Well, aside from the fact that its not in English, the work that they put into the boxes and manuals is comparable to the native versions. They match the font pretty well, the paper quality isn't like ass and the pages don't look like they were scanned into a PC, had the English text removed and then have the BM text flowed (Very badly) in followed by being printed using a low resolution printer (Which was what the Dawn of War manual felt to me). not to say i wanna trash any language or wat, but the language printed there makes it look cheap... sorry to be so honest im pretty sure there are quite a number of ppl out there who doesnt like this either... still i would go for the original imported version.... don get me wrong, i still try to buy original games, and orginal as in the one in english but localised versions is a no no i hope this can bring down the prices of original games... as in the one in english..... anyway imagine (just an example) paying MYR 900k to get a Porsche Carrera GT with the engine n the body n the quality, but instead of the Porsche logo, they put proton.... sure u also tak suka la.... pay so much for that crap?   PS. for all you localized Stalker owners, you can just look inside the game disc and the English manual is in there under pdf format  gestapo: He hates his national language... I know ppl who hate their entire racial heritage. Its opinion and he's entitled to it. Again, you're reply to him was the issue. You could've addressed it more tactfully but you chose otherwise.

QUOTE(king_kong @ May 16 2007, 12:09 AM) Dawn of War was a failure because it's a warhammer game, the content had to be in English! the malay translation killed phrases like: For the Emperor! so, it was doomed to failed. The manual was sorta funny... The entire Ork section was barely translated (Because everything was misspelled  ) |
