Best version of Policenauts?
Hi. This is my first post here and I have to ask you which version of Policenauts is the best?
Recently, I bought the version for Sega Saturn. I already have a converter for my Saturn (Pro Universal Replay) so probebly, I can play it on my PAL Saturn. I'm not sure if the Playstation version is any better. If it is, can someone tell me the diffrence? I had a Goldstar 3Do which I sold for about a month ago, is the 3Do version any better then the other ports or is it just like the other versions? I know that there is no region lock on 3Do so it would maybe be easier to play that version since I would not need any converter.
One last question, some people have told me that there already is a translated version of this game that I can download and other says that the translation isn't ready to be released yet. I've used google and searched but I can't find it anywhere to download, so I guess that the translation isn't completed yet.

Re: Best version of Policenauts?
personally i love the saturn version, but maybe im being biased because the saturn is one of my favourite consoles.
i believe that the saturn has a few extra bits to it though.
i like the fact that the 3do premium came with the mouse and mat but i thought it could of done with a light gun.
saturn came with that cool little artbook, but no mouse or gun with it.
pc 8823 came with next to nothing but hey its got a nice big box filled with alot of cardboard.
and psx well came with nothing but there was the private collection for psx.

Re: Best version of Policenauts?
Ah, thanks for the quick answer.
Btw, I bought the game on the Swedish auction-sita Tradera (a Swedish version of Ebay). Here's a link.

199 kr is about 25 dollars. Good deal or not? It felt ok for me since I haven't seen the game on Tradera this year.

Re: Best version of Policenauts?
Well, I bought the game yesterday and I'm still waiting for it to come with the mail. I will check if the stickers are including with my copy once I got it. But I belive that I will enjoy that game since I loved Snatcher, even if I've only played the Mega CD-version which I've heard is worse then many of the other ports that was released in Japan.

Re: Best version of Policenauts?
can you read japanese???
if not i think you may have a few problems with policenauts.
you do know also that the patch that is being made is for psx vesion only.
people bad mouth the sega cd version of snatcher but i still think it is a brilliant version of the game and in my opinion it is not the worst version

Re: Best version of Policenauts?
I can't read Japanese. Too bad that the patch is only made for the Playstation-version, but I guess I will get my hands on that version sometime too. Also, I'm collecting games for both the Saturn and the Playstation so I'm not dissapointed at all.
Snatcher on the Mega CD is pretty much the only way I can play Snatcher in english. Also, my copy of Snatcher is signed by Kojima

Re: Best version of Policenauts?
I've never played MSX, so no.
Well, first I got the game (not signed) on my birthday when I was 14 years old. In november 2008, Hideo Kojima visited Stockholm and it takes like a half hour for me to get there so I just took the chance. ^^
Here's a picture.

Re: Best version of Policenauts?
From what I hear the PC98 version has the most dialogue but among the console versions the best one is the Saturn version.
