New MMORPG Game LORD NINE Infinite Class Set to Launch in PH July 31st

Folks who are into MMORPG will be so pleased about the coming launch of LORD NINE Infinite Class in Southeast Asia and in the Philippines this coming August, and we got to witness gameplay in the advanced server this morning at the SM Cyberzone in Makati. I love RPG's to start with especially when it's a bit medieval which makes this a really good alternative for the tired ones that exist today. The story is quite simple, as this huge fantasy world is being fought by over 9 different lords, and where they await who will reign supreme once the dust settles. This is quite nice for those who doesn't want it complicated, just good stories lots of monsters to slash, use magic and combat. Radiant is the first Lord but there are 9 others who could eventually get it. Jaeyoung Han the creator says "Smilegate gets love from Asia (Korea, Japan , Taiwan) and over the years, and want to make it event closer to Philippine shores. We want to build communities."

Joong Hyuk Park the Global Business Team Manager from Smilegate adds "We launched this in different countries and have built a lot of players, this is a player driven community. It's easier to play, we hope you get to find this game interesting." 

The story time line would be Orpheta The Era of Giants, Pernox Conquest Wars, EOS The Birth Era of the Lord, Midday way The War for Dominance and Serus The Rise of the New Power. 

The game is immersive, with really good graphics that is pretty close to reality. Some of them are drawn based on real structures from famous landmarks, blended in to create this world. You can create different classes using your preferred weapons, that's over 60 classes you can utilize throughout the story. From swords, bows, staff, bare hands, daggers, shields, you can concentrate on a few and master it in battle. You can combine these and produce different character abilities and change when you want to. Weapons and skills change based on traits, while the ability system can be customized with 52 abilities and 60 classes. It's up to you to build your strategy. You can also unlock hidden abilities that are sometimes locked in the server, so make sure to explore and experiment. They also have Homun System or Pets that can travel with you and help with quests and battles, it even adds to your stats which may prove to be useful in battle. You can also play this on PC and mobile, it supports cross platform play so if you are out of the house, you can still make that game with your friends done. 

You can also farm fro items or trade,  diamond sales have been quite good in Korea and Taiwan so take advantage of that in USDT or cash (and is highly encouraged). There will be open trading between global users, use Line Next for it. They will listen to players in Southeast Asia especially the tip local content creators so everyone can enjoy it. They also use multiple languages and support it. They will have fun localized content to build communities, this will be officially launched on July 31st, 2025 so stay tuned!

NETFLIX Had Us Experience SQUID GAME 2

Looks like NETFLIX is getting ready for highly successful Korean series Squid Game as they premiere on the platform this coming December 26, 2024. It's been a while since we've seen the first installment, but their Director Hwang Dong-hyuk promises that it will all be worth the wait.

We had ourselves experience this during the Netflix thanksgiving event at Green Sun a few weeks ago, and certainly, we had ourselves go through the various games they played in the series to earn points, and exchange it for exclusive merch later on in the evening.

The character Gi-hun will be starting off the second season after he leaves the airport, there will be some that will still be part of this installment, while a few will be new characters you should look out for in the show. Times will be different this time because after winning that game 3 years back, it'll be a whole lot different now especially when they get to win 45.6 Billion, and new players will have them running after their money. They also teased some characters from Season 1 will have appearances, so watch out for that!

They didn't win the Emmy's for nothing, so make sure you do download and subscribe through Netflix because as you can see, they definitely have a LOT up their sleeve!

Check Out The TCL C755 QD-Mini LED 4K TV: The Ultra Game Master

It was a really good day to be in the midst of peers and fellow TV enthusiasts at the Abenson store in Quezon Avenue. TCL chose this to be the venue for the launch of their newest TCL QD-MiniLED 4K TV. They've been really hard at getting new products out in the Philippines, and something tells me, this would be the perfect TV set to have this Christmas.

They had us experience it first by getting some of the best consoles, PC driving simulations and even Virtual Reality based games at the top floor of Abenson Quezon Avenue. Had my hand in a few rounds of Tekken and fought with other bloggers and media entities. I felt like a noob during the first few rounds since it's been a while since I've played, but I got the hang of it since round 1. I finished the game too in my first try, so it was highly encouraging to do the versus rounds. It also pays when you've got a display that can keep up with the game's graphics, because it's hard to see clear and accurate especially with fighting games that need higher refresh rate. The refresh rate runs at 144Hz VRR +240Hz DLG (Dual Line Gate) a technology that only TCL has which automatically detects your source output and adjusts accordingly.

Here's our video coverage of the event a few days ago, please enjoy!

The TCL QD-Mini LED 4K TV C755 Ultra Game Master runs on Google TV OS and can be controlled hands free via voice control. It's got Google assistant, so if you're a little experienced like I am with a Google Home smart environment, you can ask away as usual. The audio is clear with Dolby Atmos, DTS Premium Sound so if you're a movie freak, this would do you good. With its 4K UHD display, you'll have clearer than clear scenes and higher contrast, you'll even love how black real BLACK is on the C755. There's also WiFi6, and backward compatible to your current wireless connection. You just have to sit back and enjoy everything once it's set up!

You need a TV set that can keep up with your gaming requirements so you don't lose matches, precious rounds or even those crazy races. TCL has them in Abenson branches nationwide, go try them out first then consider getting them now. It's surely a good "gift to self"!

Watch Out for All Star Videoke on GMA!

It looks like GMA is making their Sunday afternoon even MORE fun by bringing in their hit show ALL STAR VIDEOKE back to TV which was once hosted by Allan K and Jaya. This time they're bringing in a very HUGE fancy stage, plus two new hosts to become song masters and start off the show. 

Betong Sumaya says "I always wanted to have a show aside from Survivor, I said it during those years and I've already had a movie with her. Now it's going to be us two, hosting our own show and she's not holding back in comedy here. She's sophisticated, but here she's letting all her hair down. You wouldn't believe what she can do in every taping I've had with her. The celebrity contestants will be seen without edits, you'll see who can sing or not in real life, some are really good, some doing it in second voice LOL. All Kapuso celebrities had fun in the show so I hope you watch the show this September 3 as we begin All Star Videoke! The previous one had a 7 year run and when I met him during Rochelle's wedding he game me his blessings, also Ms Jaya on Instagram. We are so proud to be part of this. I was a player back then but it wasn't like this, the stage is so high and they will fall. It's a little scary. We are also going to sing here so we'll try to see if out efforts are enough on the pilot show. You should also watch out for the second, third and fourth show. We'll try that fall on our next taping, but when we saw it during the first episode we already backed out LOL."

In the first episode, you'll see Kapuso stars Barbie Forteza, Jak Roberto, Ken Chan, Mikael Daez, Megan Young (who's inviting you to watch Miss World later on SNBO) and Kim Domingo. 

They choose a category, sing along, and every correct lyric will have an equivalent prize. Celebrity judges will choose who will get dropped off based on those who got more lyrics correct. For the first show, it will be Alden Richards and Jerald Napoles (as ALL STAR LAGLAGERS) on chair so they have to make sure they guess the lyrics right! For the two last contestants, they need to do the PUSH AND SING round where they will need to continue singing a song they chose and win a point if it's correct. 

Winners of this week will be challenging the next batch of celebrities and if they do it 4 times in a row, they will win a BRAND NEW CAR! Okay how do I join? LOL

So if you want to know who's gonna win, make sure you watch the first episode this September 3 with Betong Sumaya and Solenn Heussaff as hosts!

Smart Pledges Free Access for Pokemon GO in PH

Playing Pokemon in the Philippines!

It hasn't been launched yet but I was one of the few people who got excited and played with Pokemon Go in PH a couple of months ago. Since the game isn't here yet, I'm still super excited because apart from having our own dedicated server, we're also going to be welcomed with FREE ACCESS exclusive to SMART Subscribers here in the Philippines. Oh yes you heard that right, it means that Smart and TNT subscribers with iPhone and Android Phones can access the game without any charges for 7 days after it gets launched in the country.

Pokemon GO is a location based augmented reality mobile game and is currently available in 30 countries. It was initially launched in USA, New Zealand, Australia and Japan on July 6 but is going to conquer Philippine shores very soon!

Smart has also launched their #PHForPokemonGO campaign online in anticipation of the huge following this game has been able to do in a span of a few weeks. For Pokemon Series fans, this augmented reality game can get you back that nostalgia. As for now, you can stay in the real world environment with OMNOM, Zombie's Run, or Niantic's Ingress so you can get a feel of Pokemon GO even if it's not here yet. 

You can also be assured that it'll be really smooth with Smart and TNT when it launches soon. You can be sure to make Pokemon GO purchases even without a credit card. Smart's Google Direct Carrier Billing for Android users can be used to purchase POKECOINS so you can buy supplies to make that Pokemon Catching habit easy. It will be charged on your Prepaid or Postpaid account. Meanwhile another alternative for Postpaid subscribers is Smart's Pay-With-Mobile service. It will be charged on your account and pay later when your bill arrives. 

If you want to hear more news about it, follow Smart's social media channels. I'm sure, it's worth the wait!

Sarah Geronimo for "Sarah G Popsters" by Xeleb

I love Sarah Geronimo. Just like you, I've been swooned by her pop songs including "Kilometro" during shower time and danced to beats whenever I can outdoors. Well she's not stopping there anytime soon because just a few days ago, she released her very first Android game called Sarah G Popsters. It's made by celebrity game maker Xeleb Games who also did Anne Curtis Smith and Erwan Heussaff's titles a few weeks ago. This time, this bubble type game will make you spend countless hours on your phone and get you to spend it with the Popstar Princess all day in this highly addicting and very easy game available now on the Google Play Store.

Here's a video intro so you can see how it's played!

Sarah also mentions that she was so happy to actually see this because it's like anybody can play it. It's easy, the gameplay is fun, and wouldn't get you bored because after each game, you'll hear Sarah personally cheer you on and have some of her own songs play during the game. Now if that's not fun, here's Sarah during the launch a few days ago. This includes me getting surprised because I didn't know she was behind me before she went up the stage.

SARAH GERONIMO FOR SARAHGPOPSTERS ANDROID GAME by kumagcow

So now's the time, go to the Google Play Store on your Android Phones and search for Sarah G Popsters and you'll find the game.

How To Make It Big in "Just Roll It"

If you haven't been playing yet, then you're missing a lot! If you've been winning quite a number of times in this game, what do you think is the secret? Is this calculated? Is this luck? What certain rules can you follow in order to have a successful run? We've played the game and think a few pointers can get you on the winning path because as complicated as it seems Just Roll It is very easy to understand and if you're ready this might be your lucky day.

Buy - If you're the first one to roll the die, then go ahead and make that count. Buying a piece of land takes you on a high point if you end up landing first on the board. That goes the same if you prefer the more galactic counterpart of it, buy planets. A property is also as good as its manager so if you can get those properties, build houses, hotels or colonies. The larger the structure is in a land, the bigger it is to rent out when somebody lands on your parcel of land. This can easily make your dreams of world domination faster, easier and economically sound.

Strategize - Device a few ways to get out of a sticky situation if you didn't get to buy enough resources at first. Remember to buy other players property if you can, but remember it'll cost more so make sure you don't go bankrupt in the beginning of the game. If you can't buy all the property, make sure you just purchase the one that can win you according to the rules. There's always a way, people win them by picking sides on the board and getting the properties whole line. It's not always luck! If you are playing this game via Team mode, always know how your partner plays before you decide a purchase would beneficial to you both.

Pawn - If you run out of money and don't have anything left, don't be shy to win back by pawing property. The game allows you to liquidate your assets by selling it to other players so you get cash in return. You can still pay off small rentals and continue the game but make sure you don't lose it, as it's pretty hard to win when you land on a high priced rental be it a hotel or colony! Swear! We've seen some players really lose money in the beginning and eventually win by just doing this. 

Watch Other Players - There are behavioral patterns and you can see how other players actually buy real estate, buildings or planets. If you see they don't care about the price that much, take note of that. If they're losing too much money, take note of that too and make sure the next time they do get incarcerated or trapped in some boxes, pounce on the opportunity so you could win that game!

You can watch this video and see how it works!

So go ahead and download the game and other information on http://justrollit.ph/ and you might just win in the weekly or monthly raffle event. This includes the latest phones, gadgets and REAL money as they've got Php 1 Million worth of prizes to be given away! Aren't you glad you read it here first?!

This just in: Just Roll It is now having their Monthly Raffle event extended until September 30th. This means that all players would have a chance to win one of two (2) brand new Samsung Galaxy S6 edge, one of two (2) shiny Samsung Galaxy S6 or a whopping Php 200,000 cold cash! Check out details here!

That's how YOU can win it big in "Just Roll It".

Really Be Rich with Just Roll It

This day has been really fun, happy and exciting. I've been buying a lot of properties lately, built houses, hotels, towers and had several colonies this afternoon. I won a lot, some other people also owe me money. I lost some earlier but played for it again, and got it back. Oh yes I've been also riding several spaceships, going back and forth to Andromeda galaxy, bought planets, space stations and needles and still have some of the others placed with tariffs so my enemies would have to pay a hefty price. I want them all to lose their money in just a few minutes because I want to win. Obviously, the fact that you've read that just now may imply that I'm crazy. No, I'm definitely not. It' just that I've found an online game lately that have sparked my interest. It's called Just Roll It. It's catchy, easy to understand and they've got plenty of game play you could choose from. I just installed it on my laptop this evening and by the looks of it, I'm hooked!

Here's how we got it installed:

Register an account first by going to http://justrollit.ph and clicking on the Register link indicated there.

Registering an account would make you play tons of online games on their servers. Since we're here for Just Roll It, go back to the http://JustRollIt.ph page and click on Download. It will prompt you to save an executable file on your PC so go ahead and say yes, then run the file and follow the prompts.

Installing is easy and only requires a few megabytes of disk space.

It will also be creating a shortcut on your programs list, so go ahead and hit NEXT.

Confirm all the settings and click the Install button.

Wait for it to complete extracting files and install the game on your computer.

Now it's time to launch the game and play Just Roll It!

After installing the game on your laptop or PC, launch it and you'll have this prompt. This is where you'll input the username and password you created when you registered. You've also got the links of their social media channels plus their community. It's also got a bulletin where it indicates the updates they do for the game. If you need help on how to play the game, they've got the game guide also listed there. If we're all set let's login.

Since you're new around here, you have to choose your initial character. They've got different ones that have different characteristics and strengths. I obviously would choose the one closest to my looks and that's Steve. He's good looking, has a bit of a back story (which you can read after you click) he's a bartender just making ends meet, but I chose him mainly because of his high amount of Fortune Luck.

This would mean that if you choose to have other characters, you'll get other parts of the stats higher. Playing this game would not just depend on the way you throw the dice and land on the board because the character you use also matters.

Then after that, they'll ask you to create a nickname that you'll choose to use on the game. Of course I used the obvious choice for it, my website. Then I was taken to a Tutorial that would explain step by step How to Get Rich. I strongly advise you go through it as they'll give away freebies right after it that could make your game start a tad better. They'll give you extra characters, things that could pimp up your character so you've got backgrounds and stuff. I just got a rain cloud by doing this, isn't that neat?

Just Roll It has different servers and different rooms that you can choose from. You get to play this game with other people online and in real time. I lurked around too much so I stayed in the lobby. If you're there observing other players, chances are; you're also going to be invited by other players who also created rooms. You can choose to accept or decline, but I think I played with this guy alone for my first match. I was then sent to the actual game after accepting his invitation and you know what? I won my first match!

The game's concept is pretty simple. It's an online board game. You basically "Just Roll It" which means "roll the die" and when you get a number, your character goes to that planet and ask you to put up an establishment. Other players who land in your planet will have to pay you rent but they'll be able to purchase it if they have the money available. There are also other parts on the board where you need to pick a card and it'll contain either taxes (which you need to pay for), attacks (so you can pillage your opponents planets) or get perks (like discounts on properties or defend yourself from other players). The bigger the establishment you can put up in that planet, the bigger the rent. You basically have to make your opponents run out of money, have them all go bankrupt so you can win the game. You can battle it out with three other people, or team up like the one above. If you need another player, you can invite people in the lobby or those in the same servers.

As for me, I'm going to play this game like a pro. I'll have to buy more planets, obtain more galaxies, ride space ports and try not to land on Andromeda and get trapped there. I still have a lot of colonies to put up so I could get my opponents give up when they see my name on the players list. Nah I'm just joking! I just saved the best for last, this should be a good reason to play "Just Roll It".

Just Roll It wants you to be rich in real life! Yes, if you play enough to enjoy this, they'll go ahead and make you the high roller that you want to be. You get the chance to win Php 1,000 daily, a prize pool of Php 62,000 monthly, or qualify for the weekly and monthly raffle in a span of 3 months so you could win a prize pot of Php 1,000,000. So come and join me in the craze and play the newest, cutest and most exciting game online. This is Just Roll It!
