Does anyone know if there is a shop in Seoul that sells new US games for the PSP or Xbox? I wanted to get my hands on a US version of mass effect 2 or find Final Fantasy tactics for the PSP. Shipping is such a pain and it'd be nicer if I could find one here.

The only place in Seoul I've seen US games is second-hand stores around the base; it's rare that they have any games in stock, though. But really, the best advice is using http://www.play-asia.com/ They have fast shipping

I highly recommend Gameezy. The guy's name is Jeong and I have bought several games from him so far (Red Dead, Tiger Woods 11, MLB2k10, ODST) and the guy has been awesome. I believe he has a shop in Seoul, but I live in Jeonju so he ships all the games for free. I usually pay 55000 for a game and the shipping is VERY quick (usually overnight). If you have any questions, feel free to call me 010-5537-2571. Also, I don't work for him or anything...I am just really glad to not have to order US games and have em shipped.

I'm trying to buy Red Dead of gameezy.com (thanks Narconis!) but I keep getting errors after getting through the PayPal part of the checkout.

Also, GoogleCheckout gets an immediate error when you try to use it to checkout.

Anyone else running into this problem?

For PS3 users i recommend using the store. It's quick and easy. But you need a US credit card, my Korean one won't work.
