+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted December 11, 2007 Author Subscriber² Share Posted December 11, 2007 Will the JAP version be in JAP language only like the demo was, anyone know? Only Japanese :( People are hoping some of the Asian copy is in English, as a lot of Asian games do include some form of English - But I doubt it. Also there are also famitsu reviews, GT5 prologue = 10/10/9/10 Source: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=215876 Sweeet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
