Episode 11.3: Nameless / Cursed Monastery

I met with a couple of Ragnarok Online gamers the other day and they asked me what’s next for our favorite MMORPG. We talked about the upcoming patch and they kept on asking about WHEN it would be applied to Philippine Ragnarok Online. This is a good time to answer that question. The Ragnarok Team [...]

Diablo 3 in the Works?

If you ask me what my dream gaming company is, that’s Blizzard. I would love to work for the leading gaming company in the world. Anyway, I was going through their job opportunities page when I saw an opening for a Lead 3D Designer in the Diablo Team. Does this mean that Diablo 3 is [...]

M.Bison Cast in SF: Legend of Chun-Li Movie

The new Street Figher live movie starring Kristin Kreuk (Lana Lang) as Chun-Li has recently cast the main villain for the story - Neal Mcdonough.
