They haven't released it, becuase they have not finished the theme song yet.

lol you sir made my day with this phrase! (really, I was laughing for at least 2 miniutes)
Slighly off-topic : you are wrong regarding the Russian version of ME1 (there were a couple of posts regarding it on the 1st page). We had the game at the same time as the european release, but the were only russian subs. But later they decided to make the "Gold Edition" of the game with russian VO's, which turned out to be the most epic failery I've ever seen (they've spend lots of money on that localisation and it turned out to be really crappy). 
Now on topic : I've just noticed a funny thing. There are lots of people who would like to play games from Japanese devs and are raging that they localise them not that fast. So, maybe there are fans of ME in Japan who are willing to play the game and are cursing Microsoft that they are not localising it fast enough? 
P.S. I think you have noticed that English is not my main language, so sorry for any mistakes you will find in this post.

If they put Samara and her blue cleavage being groped by the tentacles of a Hanar on the front cover of ME2, it might breaks sales in Japan.

Bioware don't you dare steal my idea.

Well, if we're going to reinforce stereotypes here...

Samara also has to look like a terrified little girl.

@ OP, not enough mature women who look pre-teen, not enough spiky hair, giant swords, hit based gameplay, singing and flashy cutscenes.



I know I sound mean but... it's true. I think the japanese market is... a whole lot different than ours. Even some top japanese developers have mentioned this, and why the West is doing so well.



And I seriously lol'd at the people saying there wasn't enough sex with Hanars so they weren't interested, hahah.

ME didn't sell well. I'm not saying that the Japanese have bad tastes in games, but Dynasty Warriors is a big deal in Japan while Mass Effect went unnoticed.

Everywhere else in the world though, Dynasty Warriors is unnoticed. HEH

I think they need to stop making Dynasty Warriors now...

Microsoft is publishing ME2 in Japan this winter.

Japan XB360 gamers are getting FFXIII in Mid-December too.

I think that's enough off-topic discussion and casual racism and stereotyping for one thread, thank you. Distribution and localization questions should be directed to the publisher, Electronic Arts. Thank you.



End of line.
