The NEW South Korea thread: Looking for Matches? Head to Cong, Anyday but Monday!

I won’t be able to make it. I’m actually going to Osan today but won’t be in till probably 3 or 4

I feel like I may know you personally but that may be wrong.

I stopped by but it was already 2. Not sure if I missed anything by then but it seemed people were playing through.

You didn’t say anything you bum!

My mistake bro. I tried looking for you the first 10 or so minutes but it was so dark haha

Great event phillyone, I’m gonna consider coming a bit earlier for more casuals lol. Everyone in the local area should come out to these monthlies!

Here are the top 5 hype moments of the tournament

I rarely pay attention to this thread since I’m usually too far away to go so I was unaware there was a tournament going on. But I will be at Osan in November/December for a year so I’ll definitely be going more often.

Here comes next any button!!!

New video from core-a gaming How to get to Arcadestream http://youtu.be/ngl-M71aywI

Hi all,

I’ll be staying in Seoul for a few weeks. Was just wondering when the ArcadeStream weeklies were, and what day they were held. Also looking for any local arcades, interesting stores, or some people to hang out with.

Yo,

Where are you staying and what games do you play?

We are having our USF4 monthly next Saturday (5th) starting at 7PM, registration starts at 6, casuals will start way earlier than that.

Kind of off topic guys but I’m gonna be going back to Korea later this year and would an unlocked phone bought in the US work over there? I use one of those unlimited 30 day plans every month and was curious if they had similar stuff in Korea? Don’t like contract plans.

Stuff like StraightTalk doesn’t exist to my knowledge. An unlocked phone does work over here, and as far as I know, as long as you’re not buying a new phone, you won’t need to sign a contract, just sign up for service.

Okay that sux. I use something similar to Straight Talk so I was hoping they had the same type of services over there which would’ve made things a lot easier. Thx for the help.

Anyone interested in an etokki Omni Korean Edition arcade stick hit me up!

No prob, but I’d say that contractless plans will be similar in price. Now, I’m paying like $45-ish for a plan with unlimited talk & text + 3GB data on KT. I’m on contract, so I tacked on about $30 extra a month for my phone. So it’s reasonable TBH, FAR better than going through the big 3 in America does you.

If you got the Straight Talk special, like Unlimited Talk & Text + 1GB data, it’d run you far less than you’d pay for it on Straight Talk or the other ones.

The only thing, and I totally forgot about this, but MAKE DAMN SURE your phone is able to do CDMA unlocked. You should be fine though if you have an unlocked phone in this day and age.

CDMA not GSM? Ok I have a GSM phone now so that’s a huge detail, thx for that. Guess I gotta get a new phone before I leave. Really helpful info, thx again bro.
