I recently posted in my personal blog about how the Eraserheads Reunion Concert was cut short because Ely Buendia was rushed to the hospital during the intermission. This was really sad to hear but what’s very nice is how the people reacted. Instead of “booing” or getting sore about it, the audience understood and even [...]
The Naruto Shippuuden manga is progressing much faster than Bleach and I’m really excited every week when they upload the scans for the newest episode. They released the latest issues for Naruto and Bleach last Friday and both titles offered really action-packed stories. In last week’s episode, we saw Sasuke’s team getting whooped by the [...]
I think it’s fair to say that Level Up was one of the pioneers in using blogging as a communication tool for the local online gaming industry. I started Waukster Online almost 2 years ago and I was followed by my colleague, GM Tristan. After that, several other Level Up employees started their own blogs [...]
I’ve already shown screenshots of Sub-Zero beating up the Joker, now it’s time for you guys to see how Joker does his fatality! I’m really psyched for this game despite the initial bad reviews it’s getting. I’m not really in it for game balance - I just want to see Superman take Joker’s head off [...]
Perfect World, Level Up’s latest Free-to-Play MMORPG, recently had a website revamp. It’s now more hardcore and definitely more action-packed. The most noticeable change is the main header, wherein they replaced it with a flash animation banner. Other noticeable changes are the new updated game guides which is really meant for new players. They’ve also [...]
I’ll do the review over the weekend. I just wanted to let everyone know that Onemanga has already uploaded scans of Bleach 323 and Naruto Shippuuden 414. Both episodes promise to be action-packed since the previous episodes were set-ups to epic battles from both titles. On one hand we have Sasuke and his team against [...]
I’m the type of guy who can watch game trailers again and again… and again. Cinematic game trailers are usually different from a lot of movie trailers out there in the sense that they are more dramatic, action-packed, and very mysterious. One of my friends once called the first World of Wacraft trailer “enchanting”. I [...]
I got this video from my co-worker and fellow blogger, GM Tristan. It’s a video of RF Community Manager Cydie answering a question from a reader of GM Tristan’s blog about hacks in RF Online. Cydie is definitely one of the more charismatic and dedicated people we have here at Level Up and I’m happy [...]
Two new consumable buff scrolls have been added to the Valkyrie and Valhalla servers. Both scrolls are very powerful in their own right and they can definitely change the tide of battle if used correctly. The first item is the Ghostring Scroll. It temporarily gives you the benefits of the Ghostring Card for 1 minute. [...]
With each passing day, we get closer to the Ragnarok World Championships which will be held at the World Trade Center on October 18-19. For several months now, we’ve been doing several in-game promotions and live events to filter out the best team that can represent the Philippines in this once-in-a-lifetime tournament. There is no [...]
Leord, a reader of this blog pointed out that the PC Specs posted in Kotaku which I republished here were denied by Blizzard’s Stefanie Gwinner. I checked Leord’s tip and visited another site which contained a pretty much detailed analysis of the PC requirements of Starcraft 2 based on the game development engine used. It’s [...]
One of the most anticipated games in the internet cafes right now is Blizzard’s sequel to the award-winning Real Time Strategy game, Starcraft. It’s actually the game that hooked me into LAN Gaming, even more than Counterstrike. I’m a fan of games like this and I can’t count how many hours I’ve poured into Starcraft [...]
Several months ago, I was torn between the Toyota VIOS and the Honda City. In the end, I chose the Honda City and I’ve never looked back since. However, this version of the Toyota VIOS caught my attention during the recently concluded Philippine International Motor Show last weekend. The new Toyota VIOS XX Edition is [...]
The 2nd Philippine International Motor Show was held last week at the World Trade Center. The main theme was promoting cars with alternative energy sources, especially Hybrid Cars. I took a lot of photos of the cars that I found interesting like this Audi R8 which probably costs millions of pesos. I think this is [...]
I went to a motor show at the World Trade Center this weekend to check out the new 2009 Honda Jazz. Other than the cars, there were also several booth babes for the various car companies that participated in the convention. There was even a dance group called the Yokohoma Girls which I was fortunate [...]
