    Shame it takes another year for it to be released overseas, that’s if Sega decides to release it overseas.. Not too keen on the Pre-Order bonus’s tho… i mean maps ¬_¬

      I can undesrstand you. But there’s people like me who would preorder this game even with a Yakuza styled toothpick offered as a bonus. And anyway, one should see how those maps are made, right?

    Looks like one of the best games this generation has ever seen. So rich and deep. I’m not bothered with the waiting, let’s just hope SEGA will bring the full game to the West. No cuts allowed, here.
