The beta will only be available in English.  We will hopefully be able to announce other language version information in the near future.

I got ya.  I can't say 100% but the odds are probably good.  I should be able to give you more details in the next few weeks.

hehehe, every game released in Germany gets translated, just like every movie and tv series gets lip-synced. needless to say, it kind of a national running gag about our eastern neighbors.

Hopefully, there is no automatism in this.
I, for one, want the english version, as most of the time (95+ %) the translation for games sucks (same goes for most movies especially comical ones, where a lot gets lost in the translation)

Although in Slovenia we never synch anything other than cartoons for kids (nor would I want John Travolta suddenly talk Slovenian with an unknown voice), I kinda understand the German (French...) point of view.

It may be a national gag for you, but if your market was flooded with movies you didn't understand and you wouldn't want your own language get lost in the flood, you might do the same.

I suspect we'll have all the language files on the disc and that which one you'll get will be set during installation.

Just click the Store link at the top of the page to pre-order whichever version works best for you. The beta will be download only, no CDs will be sent for it.

Right. You'll be able to download the beta once it's released, and then when Sins is released later this year, you'll get a retail copy as well (plus you'll be able to download it as well).
