I prefer English, but it doesn't bother to play in Spanish if there is no other way. Nowadays, translations are good and sometimes it is done differently for Latin America, although Castilian Spanish is OK too (and the expressions they use are very funny at times!). If the game is from Japan, I like setting the audio in Japanese if possible, but not many here like that, or they find it odd. Btw, am I the only one who find it pretty awkward to discuss gameplay mechanics and such in my native tongue? There are no good translations for common terms like "level up", "power up", "battle system", "gameplay" and so on. Discussing video games in swedish often turns into every other word being in english anyway, cause there simply are no decent words for anything. In Spanish there is a translation for almost everything, so one can have proper monolingual discussions. I've also seen others using terms in English very often, but I dislike doing that. Edit: As for the availability of translated games... I don't recall ever having a PSX game or earlier in Spanish, but it was different for PC games (e.g. Age of Empires 2), which usually include all languages anyway. I'd say that Latin American translations only began until the sixth-generation era, but I'm not sure.
