Im guessing that in Korea you get matched up with the other Asian countries as in the UK I have never come accross any Asian gamers whilst online. I was wondering if you had many people playing games like Call of Duty 4?
The xbox 360 isn't as popular in Asia as it is in the UK and US, does this mean its difficult to get an online game?

no and no.

you get matched up with whoever is playing


COD4 tries to match you up with the best pinged games. However if it can't you will get matched up with AMericans, Kiwis, Brits and Ozzies depending on the time of day.

There are some excellent Korean players and some idiot ones much like everywhere. Koreans do love to talk though which is a bit annoying and quit games early when they are losing badly. Other than that I have had some great matches against them. There does seem to be a lot of talk about Kimchi Jigae but maybe that is a code word for something.

Xbox 360 is very popular here. So popular the msoft was worried about the fact that most 360's here were modded.

Thats good news then. So I can kick lots of Korean ass on COD4!
I thought it was all about Nintendo and Sony over in Japan and Korea and MS didn't really get given a chance.

Your from the UK right? Did you buy your Xbox in Korea or is it from back home?
