Lea Salonga is a Gamer

 

It’s confirmed! Broadway diva and international star, Lea Salonga is a full blooded gamer. Lea now writes regulary for the Inquirer under the Showbiz/Entertainment section. In her debut article, Lea shares her passion for video games especially handheld and console. Among her favorites are the Final Fantasy series and even God of War. She confessed on how her love for gaming began; ”It all started with a borrowed Nintendo Game & Watch in the early 1980s. It was a simple black-and-white screen in a dark blue plastic casing and all one had to do was catch the objects thrown in the air. The game’s speed would keep accelerating and once you hit 999 points, the game would start over from the beginning.”

Currently, she’s playing Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII on her PSP.

Happy Halloween

It’s the night before Halloween. What are you playing?

I remember back in the ’90s when Resident Evil and Silent Hill would scare the beejezuz out of me. Nothing beats playing survival horror in a cold, dark room, by yourself. Gaming sure had those ‘jump-out-of-your-seat’ moments.

I’m sure you’ll be remembering the dead and the supernatural this All Hallow’s Eve. Let me send you off with an albeit old (but cool) IGN video of the TOP 13 SCARIEST VIDEO GAMES OF ALL TIME.

Are your favorite scary games one of them? Check ‘em out. Happy Halloween, gamers! Boo!

Obama Ad in Burnout Paradise

 

The US presidential elections are just a few days away. Next week, the US will have a new president and a big chance that they will see their first afro-american president too.

Targeting gamers, Obama’s crew placed a campaign ad in Burnout Paradise. Check out the photo above. Well… I hope the Americans vote wisely. Best of luck to Obama and his opponent, McCain. May the best dude win!

What’s Wrong With This Pic?

 

Ey… if you’re a true-blooded gamer (or maybe just a natural geek)… tell me what’s wrong with the scanned ad photo above? It’s an ad by Sears.

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.

The Chibi Adventures of Batman and Superman

“Chibi” is a Japanese word meaning “short person” or “small child.” The word has gained currency amongst fans of manga and anime. In terms of drawings, these are the “super deformed”, much the style or art in Ragnarok is.

Now that we have that covered, I’d like to share with you a wonderful online comic, the Chibi Adventures of Batman and Superman. Credit goes to Singapore artist, inkblot and his studio.

Enjoy!

Are Real Filipino Games Dead?

In this day and age, when I go out of the house, I rarely see kids playing traditional Philippine games. These are the games that I used to play as a kid. Some of these games include patintero, taguan and agawan-base.

Of course, the games of choice are now video games and online. You’re most likely to hear a group of kids chatting about an MMORPG or about Guitar Hero rather than talking about real games.

But are the traditional games dead because of the rise in technology? Let’s find out.

Amazing Hand Paintings

Let’s take a break from our regular programing.

Have you ever tried to make hand shadows when you were a kid? And have you tried to take this a step further by painting your hands and recreating animals? Yeah, sure you did. Was loads of fun back then, huh?

Well, I just found this off the web. This takes it one step further.

Check out the photo below.

And then more amazing hand paintings after the jump.

Sparklers Are Not Just For Kids

New Year is just a couple of days away. I’m currently writing a year-ender special on the MMORPG industry in the Philippines. More specifically, our games, of course. I’ll be posting that soon.

Meanwhile, here’s something I stumbled off the web.

The trick here is to have a 5 second delay on a digital camera, get a few friends, give them sparklers and have fun.

Check out the photos below. Warning: Rated R
