Dragon Age Origins Review (Guest Post)

This article is guest-posted by Jovy Soriano, who I recently featured in my Gamer Profile section. Jovy’s also one of my mods, an elite privileged few tasked to maintain order at my Facebook Fan Page

I opened guest posting in my blog in order to develop young talent, to help them harness their writing skills and for them to share their knowledge and talent to the entire world (and the whole geek/gaming community).

Nice work here by Jovy as she reviews a game she recently played. I also played this game and it’s one awesome Fantasy adventure.

Without further ado…

Gamer Profile: Jovy Soriano

It’s been a while since I got submissions for Gamer Profile. One of the probable reasons could be that my contact form page has been busted for quite a long time now. Good thing I repaired it.

Now, time to feature the latest Pinoy gamer, Jovy Soriano. Jovy’s a fresh grad who’s really into MMORPGs and is also active in my Facebook page.

Full interview with Jovy after the break…

Ragnarok Player Composes Theme for Survivor Philippines

 

Most of you, when not gaming, may be glued to your TV sets watching GMA 7′s Survivor Philippines, yes?

Do you know that a Ragnarok player composed the new theme song for this Survivor series? It’s none other than good friend and pRO veteran Master Diwa de Leon. Diwa’s a pro violinist known to most also a cosplayer, a film maker, composer and good Ragnarok player. Talent and creativity is this guy’s middle name! He and co-creator Edwin Guillermo even bagged the 2nd place of the LIVE 2008 Filmfest with their entry Hindi Ako Botter (where I get a special cameo appearance. Woot!).

Listen to the song and my interview with MD after the break…

Gaming Legends

When we talk about “Legends”, these guys are of course, larger than life. People look up to them as role-models of the community. They idolize them due to their achievements, respect their views and often, follow them to the “ends of the earth.”.

These gamers may closely epitomize King Leonidas of the 300, one who will be the first one in a fight and the last one to leave.

What does it take to become a “Legend” inside the MMORPG or game that you play? Is it for everyone? In fact, is it easy at all?

That and more after the break

Interview with Restless

Chris “Restless” Chavez is a big guy with an even bigger heart. He’s a pro gamer and also a respected leader of the RF community. A couple of weeks ago, he dropped by the office for a visit. I chanced upon this opportunity to have a short video chat with him. Good thing my new trusty Nokia N77 was at hand to capture the moment.

Restless talks about being an Archon, his plans for the RF Online NEST and CUS (City Under Siege) campaign. Finally, he gives tips and insights on how to a leader and how to manage your own community within the game.

Gamer Cribs: Girard Garcia

When we go on coffee breaks here at Level Up, we always end up talking about gaming. We compare notes on the best setups, how to avoid 3RLs in Xbox, etc. etc.

This made me think; wouldn’t it be cool to feature and show my readers some of the actual gaming cribs of actual Pinoy gamers? Sweet! ‘Eureka blogging-moment’.

And as debut for “Gamer Cribs” (I thought of that name myself. Wapak!), I talked to Girard Garcia. Girard works for our creative department as senior copywriter and editor. He’s the guy that cranks up all those words in our flyers, websites and press releases. Girard or “Gi” is also an avid console gamer and he’ll show us his setup below.

Gamer Profile: sylv3rblade

Ey peeps… been quite awhile since I posted a new Gamer Profile.

Today, I’m going to showcase a regular visitor and active commenter here at the gmtristan.com community, sylverblade.

At 22, aside from gaming, Steph (pronounced “stip”, he claims) likes writing, blogging and doing programming. He’s also an avid gamer and has tried FPS, MMO and other genres. He particularly hates cheaters… and so do I.

Anyways, let’s hear it from sylv3rblade himself…

Gamer Profile: Master Diwa

Show me a Ragnarok player in a cowboy hat who’s good with the REAL violin and I’ll show you a true pRO legend – Master Diwa. Diwa, a freelance musician, gamer and guild leader is a true gamer, a good friend and one of the pillars of the local Ragnarok community.

It is my honor and privilege to be featuring him here in Gamer Profiles. In this special feature, Diws shares his thoughts on gaming, music and his new passion (among his many projects) – blogging. Every time I visit his blog, it seems that the alexa rankings keep getting higher and higher. Great work, my friend, keep it up.

Master Diwa has been with Ragnarok from the start. He’s always supportive of Level Up events and was even my guest speaker during the Valkyrie Press Launch.

Annyways, enjoy his interview after the jump.

Gamer Profile: Monch

Here’s the second gamer to be featured for Gamer Profiles, the newest section and feature here at www.gmtristan.com

Today, the house welcomes “Moch” who’s an avid Ragnarok player. And, believe it or not, his favorite TV program is MTV Massive. Kewl! I did some segments there at MTV and was my “few minutes of fame” a couple of years back.

Monch, who works as a proofreader in his school, Claret, also tried ROSE Online before it closed.

Let’s all meet Monch after the jump!
