In Kwonho, the player has the role of creating his own character, choosing a fighting style and buying (or acquiring) clothing and/or items (such as tatoos, guitars, teddy bears and other miscellaneous items). A player's goal is to gain experience by fighting other players in a variety of game modes, or by fighting computer-controlled opponents in the Mission Mode. By winning these fights, a player acquires credits, which he can use to buy new techniques or items, and train to become the best fighter there is. However, there are items in the game that can only be purchased with Hangame/Ijji coins. These coins are available for purchase in the My Account section of the Ijji website.
]]> 08 Feb 2007 01:09:58 Savage 2 Savage 2: A Tortured Soul is a fast paced strategy shooter that takes team based game play to another level. Each match is a war for dominance where two teams of 5 to 32 players attempt to destroy each other. It will take more than guns to finish the job. Assume your position as a fighter, armed with swords, guns, and magic; or take the field as a support character that builds, heals, and resurrects fallen comrades. Feel like bringing out the big stick? Become a siege unit like the Behemoth (a huge animal biped descendant of elephants that takes down buildings using an uprooted tree) or the battering ram to destroy enemy buildings. Always thought you were a natural born leader? Take control as the leader of the action, the commander, who builds, researches, expands, and tactically strategizes your team's efforts.

Savage 2 is unique and delivers a roller coaster ride of excitement that very few games can. Once you play, you'll never turn back. Consider all your other games obsolete and join those who felt the sensational impact of Savage 1 in an all improved sequel.

]]> 30 Jan 2007 09:55:48 True-Vol True-Vol is an online multiplayer first person shooter and a role playing game. The objective of the game is to "ice" your competition as many times as possible by shooting them (click left mouse button) and using your own special techniques while avoiding being "iced" yourself. Fly around the level and collect Vol power-ups (look for -=V=- on screen), which increase your abilities to shoot, fly, zoom in, and move. After collecting enough Vol power-ups you will reach an ascended state called "True-Vol". With this new acquired label comes the ability to annihilate your opponents with an incredible rate of fire, great vision, and speed. Every time you "ice" an opponent you get one point. However, if you are "iced" by an opponent you lose one point, but don't worry, you can't get negative points!
You begin the game with 200 experience points. After a few games you will have gained more experience points, which you can use to create your own techniques. During gameplay you can use your techniques by first placing your target box on an opponent at least for a moment. Once you have seen their name pop up that means they are the target which your techniques will home in on unless someone has the homing virus (or you clear your technique's target by pressing zoom-in and zoom-out simultaneously). Enter the Button Sequence of the Technique you want to use and it will fire toward the last targeted opponent. You can also target opponent's special techniques and destroy them before they hit you. Simply target one (it will say "(Playername's) Special Technique") then fire off your own technique. You can even change the course of your techniques movement by choosing another target after you have fired off a special technique.
