Just came across this will updating my blog. It's the second game I've come across that has a full English version available. After you've installed it, on first launch you can hit options and choose English as the language for text and voices.

The game is called Unit and is part of the Gamebus portal.


foreigners can create accounts there using your ARC or I-PIN. Sign-up and the page are still in Korean.

You can read more about the game, gamebus and the I-PIN at my blog or go directly to the Unit site above to get started.

The game is currently in open beta, so you can get in on the ground floor.

Hey. I like your blog.

Thanks for turning me onto the I-PIN. I think it will really help.

The I-PIN has been moderately useful so far. There have been a couple sites I was able to sign-up for that I couldn't without it. The only issue is a few Korean sites that don't accept roman letter names, or their name field is too short. It can still choke on those, like netmarble.

I've asked the i-pin company if its possible for us to create a korean name to associate with it to be passed to the site, but I haven't heard much of a response from them yet. If you use the I-Pin the sites don't actually get your ID number, so they'd have no idea we were foreigners if the site would pass a korean name to the registration form.

It let's me play Sudden Attack with my own account. That in itself is a major victory for I-Pin.

last weekend I decided to put more time into this game as I was enjoying it more than I expected. It's turned out to be a pretty decent game. The only draw back is the insanely slow start time when you first load the game. It borders on the ridiculous but once it's up and going the game play is decent.

Seems like a clone of "Sudden Attack". Even looks the same and armory works the same. I didn't think much about SA and why everyone plays it even though it's an old game but now i see. It's very easy to pick up, fun, and i don't get bored of it. Some of the maps are unbalanced especially for attacking. It's much easier to just kill the other team rather than try to plant the bomb.

Your blog has been extremely helpful in getting an i-pin account. My only problem is that both nexon and netmarble gives me a name error when I try to make an ID with them. Man...it's so frustrating trying to play games in Korea. I just want to play some mmorpg or something...sigh.
