I have quite a few evenings where I'm not particularly busy - I live in a small town and my gf enjoys watching her Korean dramas - so if any of you guys enjoy a bit of on-line gaming, let me know. I'm particularly fond of strategy/adventure/sci-fi games.

I'd be interested in a little co-op (or competitive, but I'm not great) Age of Mythology (Titans).

seriously? Shocked Very Happy This could be very cool.

Besides killing each other (F.E.A.R.) we could play a war-strategy game. Ever head of Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour?

THe best ever and still, after 3 years, has a strong following online (just played last night). It'd be fun to play against the computer or other people. The best part about it is....you can pick up the games anywhere for cheap (like 20 bucks total as you need command and conquer generals, then, you need the expansion pack (zero hour).

Sounds good - I assume Yongsan is as good a place as any to get the game? If any of you prefer a slower-paced strategy game that combines economy-building and warmongering, I'd recommend The Settlers II (10th Anniversary). It doesn't require a top-spec computer and is quick and easy to play on-line - it's also possible to save the game when playing on-line so that's very useful.

I like to play return to castle wolfenstien (RTCW). I've been trying to dl it all I've been able to get is ISO images, maybe I'll go ahead and burn the cd unless someone knows how to unpack an ISO image to HD.

Does anyone here play RTCW?

Sometimes I play Starcraft at my local PC bang. I've gotten to the point that I can win 1 out of 5 against Koreans on Battlenet. (This is good.)

Why don't you play on your home computer?

DEFCON

Fantastic game and only 10 pounds to register (18 dollars)

Download the demo and give it a try.

Can do IP to IP only with the copied version.

I play World of Warcraft. Tortheldrin, Horde side.

I had to leave my XBox 360 with all the games back in the US. It wouldn't fit in my suitcase. (/cry)

What sucks is all the PC Bangs have World of Warcraft, Korean edition and you can't login those with a US ID. I guess blizzard didn't want Asians to dominate their US/EU servers.
