XD I'm just waiting patiently.... I've played the TW version and found it insufferable due to "pros" purposefully getting on your badside. I look forward to the English version if it ever comes out. Surely DBO can see that the fact alot of English people exploit foreign sites to play a game before it turns english it will give them the idea they need to hasten an English release.

you would think so! Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom is a great example!The game was never planned to go global but with enough people and a lot of imports Capcom took notice, made a couple of deals with Licensing particularly Tatsunoko USA and now we have
TvC UAS .I personally imported that game for my wii.And the game sold better than what Capcom USA predicted by the way :).
Localizing is a big risk from Consoles to MMOs. there a lots of reprogramming and other things that need to be modified (Languages, voice overs and ideas of exclusive content etc..) which takes a lot of time, not too mention how pricey it can be. it's cheaper doing it in your own country but when trying to make it go global, that's a lot of time and effort and if it doesn't work out the way you plan... you're taking a big hit.. sorry for the rambling.
I'm sure Akira and NTL have thought about bringing it to the USA and UK, but the thing that goes with most business's is... "How successful will it be". We can only hope that DBO makes enough impact through KR,TW and now HK. So we can have a JP version and then US and UK.
