Proof that SCE made an english version of AFRIKA

17
Remember few days ago when Sony Cameras revealed at the Photokina photography fair in Cologne (Germany) through an english trailer that AFRIKA should be hitting Europe in 2009? SCE has debunked it early this week, but sure it seems that they are trying to cover it : French site LesNumeriques has captured a gameplay video during the event from the english version of AFRIKA.

Is SCE trying to cover it to surprise everyone at TGS 2008?

If it's in english, I don't care if they release it in Timbuktu or butfookegypt, I'll import it no region coding for most games, memba?

Same here. It's one of those weird games where I see myself just playing for hours almost without purpose.

However, the main reason I want this game is so my niece and nephew could watch. They are amazed by animals and nature shows, so this one is a definite buy for my family.

Not at all why would Sony announce an English version of a game at an event that is meant to gain exposure to the Japanese public.

Yes the proliferation of globalisation means we can interact with the news from another part of the world, but this is an event held in Japan to appeal to the Japanese market. We'll get an English announcement for Afrika at E3 09 latest.

I prefer a disk version, but I'll get it even in PSN. I'm biologist and NatGeo fan, so i NEED to put my hands on it.

If Sony are concerned Afrika wouldn't shift enough units to justify producing a boxed version, just stick it on PSN.

Seems simple to me.

I'd be much more likely to pick this up at a lower price point on PSN, than buy a boxed version. I'm intruiged by this title, but it's not a 'must have'. Drunken impulse purchase? Oh yes! (It's how I make all of my best purchasing decisions)!!

I want this game...it just presents a nice alternative to the other games I usually play on the system. If an English version of this and Shiki-Tei were to arrive, I'd be a happy gamer!
