|
|
| I noticed that people in the US are getting a free 10 day trial of World of Warcraft. I'd like to give it a go, but of course I'm in Korea. What's the best way to try it? Is there one? |

If you're American or have an American credit card and address, then you are probably in. I can't get past the page of entering a security input to prevent bots from doing it. https://signup.worldofwarcraft.com/authkey.html
It might be blocking me, because my computer is in a foreign country; Korea.
They hope American children join their Korean counterparts so they're giving them a free taste of the World of Korea. LOL |

There's a free lord of the rings online trial. I tried to go to the misty mountains, but the bad guys are too tough over there and I got my butt kicked.  |

The last time I was in Korea I did the free trial without any problems. I also tried D&D Online and a couple others. Never had any problems. Maybe they've changed things now?
After 2 days I was completely bored. What's the appeal of these games? Ah well, that's another thread I guess. |

| A bit of looking around and you might find a way to play WOW for free all the time. |
