Kill Japanese while you develop hand-eye coordination

Nothing like Tokto to bring the two Koreas together. I think I'll print up this post and mail it to my aunt with a North Korea-made Tokto stamp.

Fresh from videotaped executions in Hoeryong, North Korea is now going to offer its on-line Tokto game for free. I don't know if it's a shooter game or what, but it supposedly involved "guarding the islets from invaders." It will be available at NKmall, which imports a wide range of North Korean products (but not methamphetamine or opium).

I guess we should have foreseen a melding of South Korean gaming culture, given how much gamers have in common with their North Korean brethren: being lobotomized by a nearly 24/7 barrage of mindless media control, plus subsisting on a very nutrition-poor diet (coffee and ramyon is not the key to longevity; in real life, you can't grab a magic sword and automatically increase your life force).
