Policenauts have landed...well the English translatation has anyways...




Hideo Kojima is best known for his work on Metal Gear Solid. While the Metal Gear series is great, it's somewhat of a shame that it overshadows most of the games that has Hideos name plastered on it. Hideo Kojima was also responsible in creating games such as Zone of the Enders, Snatcher and new (WIP) Castlevania. However one game that never made it out of Japan was Polienauts. Policenauts is suppose to be a great game and a "spiritual successor" to Snatcher. While the game never made it overseas "offically" that didn't stop fans from trying to translate the entire game.

As of yesterday, http://policenauts.net, finally completed their full english text translation of the game. To play it, you'll be required to rip an iso of the original 2 CD's and throw the ISO's into into their patcher. Easy no? It's a shame that the game costs $50.00 almost everywhere you look for it. I won't be suprised if people try doing evil deeds to get it. (i.e pirating)

Either way im definitely gonna grab a copy of this game off ebay. Afterall it must be good if people can create so much hype over a game that didn't release anywhere else except Japan.
