PC Baangs In America

Posted by michael on from the bang-bang dept.

VonGuard writes "Ahoy hoy! I've written a new article for the East Bay Express about the rise of the PC Baang in the Northern California Bay Area. While in Korea, Starcraft is still the most popular Baang game, here in the US, Counter-Strike reigns supreme. Are these to be the malt shops and arcades of our time?"

  1. Baang? by tcdk · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Why not just write "internet cafe" or "net cafe" instead of Baang, which nobody know what mean? later on you could tell us that they are call Baangs in korea.

    Why is it that people seem to go out of the way to make /. headlines either stupid or impossible to understand?

    Anyway, I've been playing C/S on net cafe for a couple of years here in Denmark (bi-weekly).

    Lately a lot of people has shifted towards Battle Field 1942 though.... could be the next big thing..
