Run Up PH Launches Grand Epic Online PH

I have been a fan of browser-based games (read: Dragon Fable, AQ Worlds) way before browser-based RPGs became so popular because of Facebook. I love it because it's so accessible anywhere you are with a computer and internet. You don't have to install, it doesn't require that high-end a specification, and you could do multiple logins using different browsers if you're that addicted and decide to have more than one accounts.

I received an e-mail I guess two weeks ago from RUNUP Philippines regarding a new 2.5D browser MMORPG called Grand Epic Online (GEO) PH. The game plot is based on Chinese fairytale and tells about Chinese beliefs such as natural harmony, true love, personal sacrifice & collective interest through its interactive story quests.

GEO PH also features quest auto-navigation, pet raising and mounting system, polymorphic transformation, etc.

Philippine Toy Con 2011 This Weekend

Philippine Toys, Hobbies and Collectibles Convention is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year with Philippine Toy Con 2011 at the Megatrade Halls 1, 2, and 3 of SM Megamall from 10 AM to 10 PM on both days.

Philippine Toy Con is also Asia's biggest and long time running convention for comics, toys, anime, cosplay, movies, gaming and anything related to hobby and collectibles, so expect a lot of top brands participating in the event.

Make your weekend fun-filled especially with the cosplay. A two-day pass only costs P200 each. Not bad, no? And you'd be inside Megamall so there would be a lot of cheap places to eat.

IP E-Games Launches "Point Blank Philippines"

IP E-Game's new First Person Shooter title, Point Blank Philippines, started its Open Beta Test stage yesterday, June 15, 2011.

I actually tested the game while it was still in Closed Beta stage and pretty much liked it with less lag and new maps.

But yesterday's start of OBT was a mess. The game was so lagged I couldn't play decently coupled with disconnection issues, so I just stopped playing.

It was a different story, though, when I logged in earlier today. The lag was lower and it's okay to play. No more DC issues even.

I'd like to say congratulations to E-Games for this new game. I'm sure it'd be much-anticipated in the next Domination event.
