I want to buy the PC game Battlefield 2 at Yongsan. I've been to Yongsan, inside the huge PC mall there. I didn't really look for PC games. I just went to a small shop and bought a plug converter for my laptop.

Are PC games readily available at Yongsan, too? All I saw were a bunch of stores sellings video cameras and custom-built PCs.

Where at Yongsan Station can I get retail PC games?


I went to Homever last night and all I could find were tons of Starcraft boxes.

You can get Battlefield 2 Deluxe for 30-something thousand at Yongsan. Go out the station and across the tube/tunnel, leave the next building, walk across the road, and enter the building on the left or the right by the DVDs. I know these directions are useless, but I'm sure someone else can make it clearer.

You might have trouble playing that game on a laptop, if that's your idea. You need a powerful graphics card with minimum 128MB (256=better).

I'm going to be playing it under Windows XP on my MacBookPro with Apple's Bootcamp software. Bootcamp allows 3D acceleration and many people play BF2 without any problems on it.

Thanks.

Oh, by the way, how late do those stores stay open on Fridays?

Nice computer. You must be into the money! That's got an ATI 256MB card in it! That'll whip Battlefield A$$. Enjoy it, you paid for it Smile

Edit: make sure you get the deluxe pack with "special forces" included. It a much better deal.

See you in the field!
