Conflux

Now I felt like I slept for a year in the gaming world. I remembered when I stopped playing Magic, Shadowmoor was the set that we were playing and my friend was planing to attend the pre-release of Eventide. Recently, I tried to feed myself with the latest info and its been 2 expansions already after Eventide!


Shards of Alara block is very interesting because of its 3 color combination (instead of just 2 in Ravnica and blocks before Shards). One can make surprising moves with the combo of cards within the colors of choice. Though I haven't got a chance to really read all the cards of this block. Months after, Conflux the second expansion came in. Bringing along the most relentless creatures and tide-turning spells. Who could not miss our dear friend Nicol Bolas? he is now real planeswalker. I mean not just a dragon creature card but a Planeswalker himself!

Tekken 6 Blood: Revolution

I can't imagine how outdated I am now when it comes to games. I thought tekken 6 is still pretty new and it is to me. I haven't even got a chance to play full 8 matches. I got surprised when I read something and found out that Tekken 6 Blood Revolution is gonna be out soon (or did it already?). Check out this video.

Perfect World Confusion

I stumbled upon a blog telling about ZX Online published by IP E-Games (As we all know the main rival of Level Up! Games) currently having a CBT run. What struck me was that there is this Perfect World logo on the bottom. What the heck happened?. So I logged in to my PW Boards account and looked around. Apparently this news was pretty old already and learned that the developer of both games are the same. The way IP E-Games advertised the game, it appeared it was the direct sequel of Perfect World which is not. The LU! Perfect World is the real Perfect World 2 and ZX is pretty much a game based on a Chinese novel that has pretty much the same graphics and content (a poor ripoff actually) and in no way related to the story of LU!'s Perfect World. I wonder why E-Games really have to put the PW logo down there.. hmmmm (sarcasm)

Back to RF

After being very busy at work and trying almost all of the new online games that just came out recently, I just felt like RF online is still the best for me. Latest mmo's have a lot of new cool features but I think I like the way the game goes. When it comes to the RF community, for me I think is still the best. GMs and Vgds are also doing their best to resolve issues. I'm still at Lv43 at the moment and I tried leveling up this afternoon and I'm now at 68%. (it should have been 80% but someone just lured a mob at my back so thats -12% awtz! but thats a part of the RF life.) Hopefully I get to Lv45 this week. See you in game!

Lineage 2

Another great mmorpg that is worth the game time. Tho I was frustrated at downloading the game client coz the server is always full only to find out that the game cd is free when you purchase a Game! magazine. So I was able to install it and created 4 characters then I will be on a long journey of playing the role of those characters. Can't tell you the details yet coz I'm not yet really informed about how the whole game works but will put some in here soon. See you in game!

Perfect World

1 Day to go! Perfect world Ph will be open for open beta :). I'm still in the process of downloading the client via torrent coz I had enough problems when downloading it via http when it was still in closed beta.

EVE Online

Ever wonder how future space battles, politics and economy go? You can find all of them in this game:



An intense massively multiplayer space simulation game perfect for those sci-fi fans out there. This game primarily consist of 4 playable races: Amarr Empire, Minmatar Republic, Gallente Federation (my race) and Caldari State. Each comes with various bloodlines which separates them from one specialty to another. They also have their own fleet which is the most important. Ranging from small fighter frigates to huge thousand times larger (and rarer!) Titans with their doomsday devices that could wipe out hundreds of ships in one sweep. Each race's fleet of course has their own specialty which will be Amarr for versatility, Minmitar for speed, Caldari for armor and Gallente for firepower.

This game has a lot more to offer than piloting space ships but basically, you can choose your role weather you want to be a fighter pilot, miner, builder or a head of a corporation. A corporation by the way is equivalent to Guilds in mmorpg's.

Leveling up a character doesn't exist in this game, instead you learn skills. A skill pack must be purchased (if you don't have the skill yet) for you to learn it and may take around 30 minutes but when you increase the level of that skill, the time of learning increases and may take up to a week. Yes a WEEK!. Even if you log off the game, the skill you are learning is still in progress. These skills are required for you to learn newer and more advanced skills, fit armaments on your ship, create a corporation, build a ship mining advanced ores and many more. The skills you learn determine what type of character build you have.

Another thing I'm amazed about this game is that, it has an in-game calculator and browser. Ain't that neat!. As you open the map, It will show you somewhat a picture of a milky way but it IS really the whole EVE system's map. You can actually click on the smallest dot of light and go there by the use if your built in warp drive and every space station's nearby Stargate (which looks like a gun and makes you a bullet and fire you to your destination literally).

Last thing I have to say, This game is a bit complicated and its not for those people that are very impatient and wants action right away. You can try the game and I strongly suggest that you go through the tutorial first before proceeding because it will pretty much teach you the basics. See you in game!

Neural Sensor on games

The usual console games can be controlled using a game controller and punching those buttons. Nintendo Wii is a bit the same only its more concentrated on motion sensor. Now imagine playing a game without lifting a finger. Check this out:
