@anon not particularly so my passionate friend... look back at mh3... the only reason it took 8 months for that local was for the issues of internet.. whether we would pay to play or not... if it had taken them 8 months just to reconfigure it for localization then we would have gotten quests 8 months after the japanese ones and really it was a bout 4 to 5 months.. I know this because of the gap between the sinister saints and the pirate j quests... same quest.. different weapon.. different text... 5 month split..

now what is also curious to look at is the media support... mh3J released 8 months before mh3US true.. BUT ign covered it once at tgs and gametrailers recived one or two trailers... then... 8 months of nothing from tgs till all of the sudden in january... 4 months before the release... BOOM suddenly ign has more pictures then I feel up to browsing through and gt starts showing an assload of gameplay features.. extra vids.. trailers.. some in japanese..some in english but enough to hype people... I think we've lived the 8 months drought coverage... I think if we here of it now or next two months it'll be 4 months of developement.. not 8
