I for one find that story-driven games are much more enjoyable if the story is presented in a language I actually understand. Sure, I can print out a translation/walkthrough, but constantly looking back & forth between the TV screen & the printout to figure out what everybody's saying & what I need to do next takes away from the gaming experience.
