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?


I would play it too much. Also, I have a laptop, and I think my wireless mouse wouldn't be good for games.

cubanlord. I have no idea how to go about setting up a game, but I would be willing to give it a shot the first rainy weekend. I spend my evenings online with my family during the week though.

Seriously try DEFCON.

You will be surprised by how good it is.

I'll second that. I downloaded the demo and have just completed the tutorial. Looks like a great strategy (in the Risk-genre) game for those that like a bit of thinking as opposed to just relying on quick reflexes. If a few more of you guys give it a go I'll pay the 10 pounds to get the full version. Certainly give the demo a try.

I am in my new home with Megapass. Man, I can now host games from my PC (couldn't at my other place because the ISP had a block on it). Now, I can. Wow, what a difference. Megapass is fast. Let me know when you guys get CC Zero hour.

Should be early this week. Does The Settlers II and/or Defcon not appeal to you?

Truthfully, I haven't read much about those games. With work, my studies, my writings, and my wife....I have little time to be able to play a bunch of different games, so, I stick to fear and zero hour. Funny, I have oblivion here but haven't even played it yet. how sad is that!?

Yeah, I understand. I have the new Oblivion too, but it's far too time-consuming for me these days. When I was younger, I'd have loved it. Now, I'm more into playing with human characters - AI is far less interesting for me, nowadays.

I got C&C: Generals and Zero Hour today, but I'm having a problem. It doesn't install in English, and all I get are "?????". I have installed "East Asian" languages with XP and usually the Korean language comes up fine, but for some reason when using things like installers it can't recognise the language. Can anyone help?

Start/control panel/regional and language options/advanced

Set language for non-unicode to Korean. Bam. This should be a sticky.
