I am sure the english version will be out in Australia within 2 months or so...you would miss several hours of speech recordings if you just hacked english text into the game

You could do the same with the real game, as with the demo, of course, but you'd miss the speech, and the translation would be so bad you'd probably miss parts of the story.

But IF somebody has already ordered the German version, the auto-translation is the only way to understand anything..
