Default Will Sin & Punishment Be Translated?

Sin & Punishment looks like a cool game. But it also looks as though there will be a story to it. Im just wondering will it be translated into english?
If not will we be missing anything important?

I will still download either way but im just wondering.

If I remember correctly, it's not getting translated. However, I've heard that it shouldn't be really necesary with a translation. I'm not really sure why, though. I would guess that it is little text based story in the game, and things that you would need to know are probably going to be written in the "Home-help"-thingie-

The voice acting in the game was English to begin with (like the Biohazard games) so I don’t think the translation will much of a problem. I found the info on its Wikipedia page. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sin_%26_Punishment)

It's very likely (after getting the original Japanese version of Super Mario Bros. 2, Mario's Super Picross and Ninja JaJaMaru-kun) that we get the original JP version of Sin & Punishment too.

As for Japanese text, it's just the title screen and options.
You really don't need the English manual at all,
you'll hop into the game in no time.
But beware, there's an option to delete your saved files.

The story is in English. At least anyone will understand what's going on in-game.

Not a chance. Which is a shame for those Euro dudes who have problems with spoken English.

Its good to know that the story is in english. By the way is Sin & Punishment going to be a large file?
And also is it a long game?
