I don't know if it's because of the fact that Policenauts is only in Japanese (for now), but I've come across a plot summary or anything for Policenauts........
Mankind makes first space colony. Policemen go to colony to work. Man has accident in spacesuit. Man found alive 25 years later in cold sleep. Man returns to earth and becomes private eye. Man's ex-wife visits man to ask for help looking for (missing) current husband. Man goes no GTFO you bitch and some shit happens. Man returns to same space colony to unravel shit. Good story and atmosphere follows.
Favorite Game: Shenmue I, MGS, Snatcher, Zelda: Ocarina Of Time.

Doesn't Wikipedia have a good synopsis of the main plotline already?

Of course it was! In fact, don't bother with the translation patch; halt all of the translation work for us all, including SD Snatcher and PC Engine Snatcher; this was enough for me.

Oh wait, I see what's happened here... You're reading the "elves" crack as a reference to Santa Claus and everything... I actually had the Keebler elves in my mind for some reason when I wrote that. Don't take it as some sort of hidden message.
But thanks for the food offers, that's very nice of you...and maybe a little scary.

"The Keebler slogan reads "Uncommonly Good," in conjunction with their claim that the products are made in magic ovens inside a hollow tree by chief elf Ernie Keebler and his Keebler Elves. The animated Keebler Elves have appeared in countless TV commercials throughout the years, shown baking their unique products."

do your best. I believe! I'm willing to pay money if that will help.
Hah... Sorry buddy... Money does nothing for these guys... I don't think it's gonna happen until maybe... middle of next year? That's my ballpark figure lol~
I'm sure they will let us know when and if it gets finished, just be patient. They are doing this for free you know, its not like harping on Konami for having to push back the release of MGS4.
Nope... not whining... not going to... cry *sniff* I'm a man, yes *breathes heavily* I'm not going to get worked up over this... just have to-- WHY KOJIMA!? Why Policenaut fantranslation people!
Just kidding. I've mentioned in many of my mgstus forum posts that I'm willing to wait for perfection.
Unfortunately, the "last part" that the developer had to do on his own is taking more time to fully implement. Once that's done, the redone graphics, English end credits, and the beta testing will remain. I'm not sure if these other items can be done with the other programming hurdle still outstanding, but we'll know when Osiris has something to report. In the meantime, it's all patience.
Sure, mainstream games are fun, but you haven't tried Snatcher yet.

I feel like I'm gonna 'splode, boss Edgecombe. Playing it makes me want it even more, my advice to y'alls is not even to attempt....
Edit: On a somewhat unrelated topic, I just realized that Karen's card in MGA says "Jonthan's ex-wife, and the daughter of Lorraine Hojo." Sloppy job, guys!
I understand. I've only played about 5 minutes worth of the game, and I feel that simply waiting for the patch is the best bet. As a huge fan of Snatcher, I feel it's definitely worth the wait.
Kojima's best will be ours soon enough. :razz:

First playthrough, how long does it take to finish Policenauts?
If you read all the text and click on everything (which is really the best way to experience it), you're looking at 20+ hours. Then if you waste time at the shooting range...
