Agreed. Asia has Shot Online! too -- a MMO golf RPG. Yes, you read that right, a MMO golf RPG. They'll play anything over there, apparently. (For the record, I played the game and it's a good game, but... I can't fathom playing it all the time).

Nexon makes Shattered Galaxy though too ( definitely non-cute game), which was a pretty good game until it got to the point nobody playing spoke English anymore.

The idea of selling avatars, and accessories sounds very familiar to another Online game Gunbound. It's a WORMS-esque style game full of avatars and things for players to waste money on. I think it either started in Korea or Taiwan. It is available in English as well. »gunbound.softnyx.net/

Yeah, lots of MMO games are doing things like that now. Hell, GunZ Online Korea Edition makes money by selling premium items for your characters. The game itself is free and so is playing it. The newly launched GunZ International Edition is expected to do the same thing, whenever they finish the beta.

What makes you think I'm a racist?

They have weird culture and habits. Japanese sex culture is just freaking sick! They eat all kinds of 'food' and obviously they have a bunch of weird games that are so extremely popular in Asia but not anywhere else. I wonder why??

They are WEIRD.

I agree with the Bush remark but let's leave politics out of it

Who says it has to be just asian girls playing games. I like any women who plays games. I think it's kind of fun to see a women owning guys as they scream in thier chat windows or even their headsets.

it's all relative

The funny thing about statements like that is that they usually go both ways, i.e. they (Asians) could easily say the same thing about us Westerners. For example:

"They have weird culture and habits. (obsession with guns, religion and "reality" TV, celebrity worship, paying athletes and celebrities obscene amounts of money while say, teachers get next to nothing) American sex culture is just freaking sick (won't go into detail)! They eat all kinds of 'food' (Twinkies, Thickburgers, purple ketchup, fried candybars, pork rinds, etc.) and obviously they have a bunch of weird games that are so extremely popular in America but not anywhere else. (Football, NASCAR, Beer Pong) I wonder why??

They are WEIRD."


I just might have sushi for lunch.

True but I never said western cultures are perfect either. Even though people eat all kinds of stuff you can't really compare Asian restaurant menus with the ones we prefer.

BTW this is mostly a western website. So we talk about other peoples and don't care much about their opinions.

No accusations here my friend. I just like pointing out the ironies of statements.

Golf RPG? Is it like Mario Golf on the GBC? That had an RPG mode, the gba version probably did too.

I cant personally stand them.. They walk around our country all third world, drive with white gloves and strange full facial visors (wtf is that?), hang their stupid Asian wind chime good luck trinkets from there rear view mirrors, while cramming as many stuffed animals in the back windows of their cars as they can possibly fit. Act all timid like your going to stab then as you walk past them on the street. Stink up the lunch area with that rancid fish smell that seems to linger for a whole week straight.. They act is if they are the only ones that exist on the planet. Which i commonly refer to as the "Asian wonderland" Its a place where you can suddenly pull into a lane without looking or signaling and almost cause a serious accident, and other times needing to get into a lane, that is clearly safe to merge in, and checking to see if its safe for over a mile.. They seem to like to stand uncomfortably close to the person in front of them at ANY situation. They do not believe in personal space. As noted, play strange online games, and seem to be very addicted to "hello kitty" in mass numbers.

I could go on.. but i don't play starcraft.
