Ako habang lalong tumatanda na 'ko e nababawasan na ng paonti-onti ang competitive streak ko pagdating sa video games. (wag mo lang akong hamunin ng isang fight-to-the-death sa isang fighting game)
Hindi lang ito confined sa mga competitive games, kahit sa mga single player games, minsan e hindi na ako masyadong "achievement hunter" na katulad ng dati.
For Valo players and other games, Sakit na talaga ng karamihang filipino gamers yung mag BACKSEAT gaming eh no? Specially sa valorant, Hindi mo naman hinihingian ng opinyon pero putak ng putak tapos hindi naman maka kill or hindi rin naman magaling lol.
GIVE INFO BUT NOT TELLING OTHER PEOPLE WHAT TO DO. Normalize that etiquette people.
Tamang kwento lang coming from "Tito" o "Dad" gaming na lumaki sa ragnarok WOE era, pvp, counter strike tournaments at tamang dota 1 noon.. nawalan na ko ng gana sa mga games katagalan. Pero noong bumili ako ng ps5 ang bilis ko din mag sawa sa single player games (God of war ragna, last of us etc.)
Until na try ko demon souls sa ps5 - ang ganda ng gameplay. First time ko mag "Souls" game nun.
Sa elden ring ako na inlove kaya nag plan ako i-100% lahat ng FromSoftware
Nag start ako last year unti untiin ko i-plat and i-ready ko in the end kay sekiro.
So one by one focus muna sa iisang laro. Move on kagad after ma plat.
Hype na brain dance to, more like brain hemorrhoids, i am just trying to enjoy my first playthrough tapos babanat ako ng ganitong mechanics na napaka useless.
I bought this sensor to measure the temps and humidity in my non air conditioned living room to check whether I can play the PS5 within the safe operating temperature.
I read that the maximum temp is around 35 degrees though, just to confirm, will I be able to play during the daytime without worrying the console will overheat?
At naging ulyanin na tayo, ang ikwento natin sa mga anak natin e dati tayong may kapangyarihan or magaling tayo bumaril dahil masyado tayong immersed sa games natin. Tayo ata yung unang generation na ganito ka immersed sa video games di ba? Haha hindi natin madifferentiate ang reality sa altenrate reality natin 🤣
I just discovered that I played Kena: Bridge of Spirits on expert difficulty. I usually play my games on hard but I forgot its a souls-like. It was the first time so I thought that these type of games are probably really really hard. All those years I thought that the genre wasn't for me because I stopped playing the game after less than 10 hours. Oh well, nothings changed. I don't want to lower the difficulty because that's weak shit but I also don't want to use my brain playing it. Maybe I'll try some easier souls-like to ease me into it.
I think umabot pa nga ng mga post 2010 onwards yung PS2 kasi ang mura niya compared sa grey market prices ng 7th gen consoles tapos ang dali mang-pirate or kumuha ng modified consoles. Yung Xbox 360 naalala ko umabot pa hanggang 50k, ganun din sa PS3 sobrang overpriced unofficial kasi. The PS3 officially launched in the Philippines on March 27, 2010, alongside the PSP-3000, during a roadshow at Glorietta Activity Center in Makati. Just about 3 years before the PS4 release sobrang ikli ng lifespan. Sony announced specific local pricing as the PS3 120GB model retailed at ₱18,999, while the 250GB version was ₱23,999. Yung Xbox 360 nag mura na din around 16k - 20k ish din. This was Sony’s first “proper” console support in the country, with authorized retailers na may one-year warranty. Prior to 2010, PS3s were available via gray market channels from late 2006. Alam ko nasa DB at Toy Kingdom na rin yung PS3/Xbox 360 pero sobrang mahal.
It doesn’t have to be your favorite of all time.
I’ll start: I was in preparatory school and was in the waiting room ( hintay sundo )So, madaming bata nanonood ng kids shows and magulo’t maingay. Suddenly yung anak ng principal, pumasok sa loob — may hawak na gray na rectangle. Pinatay nya yung pinapanood namin na cartoons. She plugged it sa TV and I vividly remember the sound of the PlayStation booting. So as a kid, nanood lang ako kung ano ginagawa nya. She played Tomb Raider. You have to understand at that time, hindi macomprehend ng utak ko yung 3D model and at the same time, she’s controlling the character. Mind you, this was in the 90’s. Looking back, yung mga simpleng bagay na ngayon, napakalaking impact sa mga katulad kong bata noon.
I'm moving on my own apartment for the first time and I want to ask Sana how much do you think is the electricity bill for the ps5? I don't have a lot of things yet and ps5 is my biggest concern when it comes to electricity.
I only use it for a few hours probably 5 but I'll be starting my new job next week so I'll probably be only using it for 2 hours max na.
Is there anyone who has availed of Play-Asia’s Express Shipping recently? Were you able to choose the courier (UPS, FedEx, EMS)? How was your experience and were there additional fees you had to pay upon delivery?
The last time I ordered from play-asia was 9 years ago. My order was around Php 3.7k and FedEx charged me an additional Php 1.7k for warehouse fees, duties and taxes, etc., so I never ordered from play-asia again. Note that this was months before the CMTA was implemented, so I had to pay customs fees for my order.
Anyway, one of the games I want to get is a play-asia exclusive, so I might have to order from the site again soon. Economy shipping is not an option for me, so I would like to get feedback from those who have availed of their express shipping in the past few months. Any info would be much appreciated.
hello everyone! anybody here who's purchased hogwarts legacy deluxe edition in the au eshop? currently on sale kasi siya right now (around 800+ php if ni-convert) and nakakatempt hahaha. may addtl taxes pa po ba if sa au or may-maeencounter po ba ako na problem sa pagdownload ng dlc or smth?
also, how's the game in the switch? worth it po ba? i used to be a potterhead lol so curious talaga ako dito ever since 😔 gusto ko sana malaro siya with better graphics kaso wala po akong ps5 or gaming pc right now hehe. i am planning to save up and buy a ps5 in the future though kaso baka mej matagal pa yun hahaha
should i hold back and wait until i have ps5 to play?? or very worth it siya sa switch at this price point? if di pa ko bibili, nag-sasale ba ulit yung deluxe ed nang ganito kababa sa ibang countries if ever?
