-edit- Oh shoot ㅜㅜ I posted in the BW forum on accident again...
Please move to General?ㅠㅠ


I found three recent charts on PCbang(Korean Internet cafes) game rankings.

+ Show Spoiler [Charts] +

I organized the top 15 games that appeared on these charts( one chart only has up to 10th place, so 11~15 are only from two charts.) and made out a rough single chart of the top 15.
It's hard to trust one site, but having three different charts and comparing them makes it a little more accurate, I hope.
Oh, and the games are generally ranked by the % of the number of hours played in a PC bang. If you look at the first chart, you see that Sudden Attack is played the most times. However, it's only usually played for an average of 76 minutes at a time, while Aion is played for an average of 266 minutes while being played roughly half the times of SA.

According to a guy friend of mine(who goes to them a LOT), he sees SC2 and WoW the most, and then Aion -> Mabinogi Heroes -> Warcraft 3 -> BW. He frequents PC bangs in Shinchon though, which is mainly full of university students while the PC bang rankings are of the overall population.

I'm surprised WarCraft III is so popular. Maybe they are all playing DOTA or tower D.

Had the same thought, but then dota came to my mind and everything was clear.

look above, DOTA DOTA DOTA.

I'm quite surprised TERA is so high, I bet the PvP is fun for it to be that high.

correct order is: DOTA > BW UMS >>> other w3 ums

if i am not wrong, taiwan/korea plays another variant of dota called chaos? ( but that was a few years ago). Are they still playing that variant or they are playing the same one with the rest of the world?

DOTA, originally AoS, is a war3 UMS if you didn't know.

All hail Defense of the Ancients! . What is Sudden Attack? I also can't believe Aion is in the #1 spot..the mass grindfest game which was imbalanced.

Maybe their computers at home can't handle the graphics? Or they play with friends and it's better to have 0 latency when talking in real life rather than vent/teamspeak
