Have alot for PS2 but rarely play them now.

its all about (world of warcraft) eu version of course. alot of fun, pay per 3 months its not so bad. The version ive seen here is USA version so careful if you go to buy it. EU is much better.

Lineage II, Crazyfish and Stumpy. Someone just bought me a World of Warcraft box and insisted that I play it. I haven't installed it yet though...

Better than wasting your life watching TV, IMO (which I am also entitled to!).

PGA Championship Golf online.

My life is action packed enough , I enjoy the serenity of playing golf against buddies worldwide whilst sipping wine and listening to Led Zep ( on headphones , Mrs and Kids asleep... )

[Joey Boy]

At the moment only Battlefield 2 when I get the time

sorry stupid question really

ive brought some games from pantip that played ok. But never played online,

[Wolfie]

You wont be able to play online games for free, they tend to be subcription games... meaning you have to buy a valid account key and pay for monthly subs.

If you want to try a free MMORPG I have heard that Silkroad is completely free to play

http://www.silkroadonline.net

You can get the client from their site

Halo 2 on the X Box

[penzman]

Don't bother buying pirated copies if you intend to play online. Games are usually cheaper in Thailand than what you would pay back home and will work properly also allowing you to download patches and updates.

[solo siam]

yeah but they are mostly localised in Thai nowadays.

I play Call Of Duty on the Xbox360 mainly.

[Wolfie]

the packaging is localised, but i have yet to buy a game that wasnt english based

You can change the language in most after installation.

[solo siam]

From what I recall all EA games are in Thai language only as are some other to discourage people buying original software in Thailand for $15 instead of $40 back in their own country.

Sometimes the entire game is in Thai, sometimes just the lengthy install (for example Half Life 2).

Battle For Middle Earth had all Thai menus and selections which made it nigh on impossible to play.

[penzman]

Half-Life 2, I installed the disks and hit enter only, no mouse clicking. Had to ask the wife though where to change the language.

15$ was well worth it... until I saw my framerate... trying to fix that.

[solo siam]

To play Half-Life 2 online though you had to wade through tons and tons of Thai menus.

Strangely enough my xbox360 games (original) are cheaper here than in UK.

I got a UK 360 whilst home for Xmas - now I have to pay 50quid per game

Least the postage is cheap and takes around 4 days to arrive here

Ghost Recon:AW is the way so should have it by Tuesday. This means a day off work sick on Wednesday

I'm finding I get a lot less lag on 360 than PC, so much so that I don't even bother with PC online games anymore
