I'm planning to make a trip to Yongsan this weekend, the purpose being that I want to pick up GTA: San Andreas, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater ( ��Դ���Laughing ), and NBA Live 2005.

Are they available, preferably the cheaper versions? Not that I'll likely get a chance to play them, but it'd be nice to have them on the shelf so I can lie to myself "I could play those if I wanted to." Crying or Very sad

Sure they're cheaper but you need to have a mod-chip in your machine in order for them to work, otherwise it won't recognize the disks. The chip will set you back 40-50 000 won but worth it undoubtedly. On a similiar note go ahead and buy a DVD burner, that way (depending if you have a pc) you can download and burn the games yourself, thereby eliminating the need to go to Yongsan and shell out 10 000 won (was 15 000 but dropped recently) a game. Think about it, 25 games will pay for it my friend, a good investment!

I am well aware of this and have owned my modded PS2 for two years.

Fairly sure I have seen all of them there. There is a good man in the twin tunnels as you get off the walkway from the station.

Go into the tunnels and on maybe the first cross tunnel between the two big ones, there is a man in a suitably sized shop. Speaks english and has a good selection.
