HONGKONG, July 26, 2016 (ChinaMil)--The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Hong Kong Garrison warned local players of a mobile game "Pokemon GO" to stay away from the military Garrison's facilities on July 26, 2016.

The popular location-based game "Pokemon Go" was officially released in Hong Kong on July 25, 2016, which instantly went viral in the city.

A reporter with Hong Kong online media "Hong Kong 01" happened to find a Zubat, a feature in the game, flapping at the door outside the PLA's military barracks, and the reporter caught it at first time.

The two guards of the Hong Kong Garrison did nothing but stared at the reporter all along. They approached the gate of the barrack to watch information of the reporter when the reporter's car drove away, according to the report by "Hong Kong 01".

The PLA's military barracks are enclosed areas and they are only accessible to authorized personnel or staff, a spokesman told the Agence France Press (AFP) on July 26, 2016.

"The PLA Hong Kong Military barracks are restricted areas under the law of Hong Kong. No one is allowed to enter the military restricted areas without the authorization of the commanding officer", the Agence France Press (AFP) quoted on July 26, 2016.

Single or multiplayer? What do you think of it so far?
Both. For me it was the singleplayer first then goes to multiplayer. Since WWI is, as far as FPS concerns, a rarely covered topic, this is quite a fresh take. Scripting wise, when compare with Battlefield 4, the difference is quality is obvious - Battlefield 1 is superior in every way.

Multiplayer - as a casual PC gamer, my take is that while Battlefield 1 has less full automatic weapons and no bazzoka (the AT rocket gun is very potent, but need to go prone or lean from ledge/window to use), the tempo can be just as quick. Introduction of the "Behemoth" (airship, armored train, dreadnought) during the battle can either turn the tide or not, depends on how idiotic the other team is (like, I once used coastal battery cannon to pound the other side silly as well as their dreadnought, and at least 3 times I used the armored train's front cannon nailed incoming bomber...yes, it's one-shot affair!).

What I don't like is that the customisation menu is only found during match, and at a lesser capacity in the companion app (pilot class is customisable, but not through app, only in the menu during matches - pilot class can be deployed as footsoldier, and at higher rank has a few one-hit killer weapon).

Don't know if conversations and battle chatter is auto-generated, but as I find out in the option if I choose to have it all in the same language it actually works against me (you can tell the activities in the vicinity by those chatter, like how surrounded you are by the opposition).

Anyone looking for a good RTS game for Xbox1 and also on PC Windows 10? Halo Universe is one of my favorites.

Halo Wars2 comes out this week Thursday 2/16/17

Ok here's a probably silly question: we all know there's some game that get banned in Germany for obvious reasons, no argument there, so what happen if a German player want to play, let's say, Sniper Elite series, to experience the so-many ways of sending "That Little Coporal" to Satan, even busting his last remaining "nutsack" in the process?

Total War Three Kingdoms just announced today... I'm super hyped. Finally TW go to China.
Excellent! Finally another historical total war. I've been a long time fan since Napoleon but their recent games have been quite disappointing to say the least (Attila, Warhammer). Total War has already covered Europe to death and there's not much left for a setting in Japan, so it makes sense that it's going to be in China. I was thinking they would make a Mongol Total War ... but that would be too similar to Attila the Hun. Though then again, many of us probably knew a Chinese Total War was in the pipeline at some point ...
