half the time you get a choice of english, becuase half the time they are shiped to england, sometimes ther can be 8 lauguages on the cd.........they have to reformat the game for the reason and they tend to be larger then the US version....

Heh, never even looked at the list properly, just googled :P

Yeah most have different languages on the same disc, although I've came across several German/French only gamecube games.....

Agree,
there are many games which dont get a translation (they just change the format to PAL, mostly games with very few words, i.g. Puzzle-Games) and even more games with subtitels (still english audio)
