I want to get the actual game as Iam collector. Is there anyone here sell on Ebay brand new Policenauts for a good price? I will buy it. I found one seller he asking 107 and there is no way the game is worth that much and I gave him offer 50 but he asked for 80 which I refused.

There hasn't been a physical print run for Policenauts in well over a decade. Brand new prices are going to fetch that much wherever you look.
I would just settle for a one that's like new, which you can get for 20-30.

All versions are Japanese, but the PS1 version has a translation patch.

Yeah, as TechNoir said, Policenauts was never released outside of Japan. Though there is an unofficial English translation patch for the PlayStation version of the game; made by Artemio Urbina, Marc Laidlaw and Michael Sawyer (with Artemio being the man that owns this site).

I don't know where your friend is getting this Sega CD and Saturn release info. Maybe he's getting it confused with Snatcher (that would explain the Sega CD bit).

I know man I kept telling him as I kept searching and searching for the Sega CD version and there wasn't any. I will get my PS1 system modded and work on that patch thing to get it done. By next week I will get the the game and the system so I will play Policenauts in English.

An English version was planned on the Saturn, and even had promotional boxart, but it was scrapped due to development problems.

You are right I was reading about it. I wish they would rebuild the game for PS4 or PS3 running at 1080p it will look great.
