I wanted to ask if anybody has heard anything about it? is it import friendly? anything? i've read some "previews" here and there, but i still can't get a grasp if i should get this or not. I think it's coming to the U.S. but i don't know if i can wait...anyways any help would be awesometasticle.

I'd wait until it comes into the US. While it is an action title, most off the online elements (item trading and what not) will be pretty difficult to do as they're text heavy. You'd be missing out on a portion of the game (not a large one, but a portion none the less). It's an action game so you can certainly play it without worrying about the the language barrier that much.

It's got a late August release date according to GameFAQs so if getting it two months early and for about three bucks cheaper is it worth it to you, then sure jump on it. Be warned though. The initial reviews have been pretty brutal for it.
