Prof Layton RPG is removed in the Europe version of the game

[Scarim Coral]

Some of you may or may not know this already but the upcoming Professor Layton game "Professor Layton and the Last Specter" had include an rpg called London life. This rpg however is remove in the Europe (US version will still get it).

London Life set in London (duh) in the same setting in the game franchise. It is said that the graphic is similar to the GBA Mother 3 (the game where Lucas from SSBB is from) and the game span is around 100 hours. The game let you create your own avatar as you set up completing quests from the Londoner. The more quests you clear the more new areas you unlock and explore.

The reason why they had remove it is most likely due to the translation issue (the Europe version of the game would of be out a later if had included the languages dialogue for French German and etc).

So Europe members of the Escapist how do you feel about this news? Are you still planning to buy the game even if the rpg is remove or are you fine without it due to the rpg graphic too old looking?

I quite annoy that they had remove it since it is the only reason for me to buy the upcoming game (I kind of put off from playing puzzles from the Professor Layton game). While yes I can just import it and problems solve but what about those who can't read English at all so they won't get to play it at all?

So... i trust the UK will still be getting it though?
What with the game being set in it and all...
Plus, RPG?
Like role playing game, right?

To English-speaking fans of the game from the PAL region, I recommend that you pick up an NA version. I haven't played much Layton before, but this RPG is reason enough for me to get the game.

I don't mean to be "that guy," but Ness is not in Mother 3.

I'm just going to import it from the US. It will be cheaper as well, since the dollar is worth less than the euro, so it's win-win really...

Yes I know my grammer is bad.
Well that the thing UK is part of Europe therefore the rpg game will not in it at all ( quite ,ironic).
Yes it's a rpg game (you get your own avatar and go about with the quet) but it's a seperte game so you still get the puzzles elements on it own.

My bad, I thought he was in i since I know tht Ness is the Mother series. I will re-eidt that.

Pretty much this, I love Prof Layton games (he really reminds me of my old teacher Mr Cutting lol) so I'm pretty dissapointed about this :< Ah well.

Yeah! I'm fairly certain the DS, DS lite, and DSi aren't region locked, so be sure to get an NA copy instead.

Unfortunately, I have the reverse problem with regards to The Last Story. Those of you lucky enough to live in the PAL regions are getting that game, but I can't play the UK edition on my NA Wii since because region lock. I'll have to wait until the next Wii price drop; I'm not spending more than $100 on a single game.
