[Blog Update] My Laptop... It's ALIVE!


Hello! My laptop is now back in action. It's temporarily OK, this will suffice until I get a new HDD for my laptop or just buy a new laptop/desktop. I already backed up all my files and it's semi-smooth sailing from here. I'm also going to reduce my PAK toy purchases for a while to earn money, so less toy review and more cash and fat wallet.


What If... Remake Old Games?

[Right] Stasis: No Remorse (Cool looking game, check it out!)
Different games, but look similar. It's like a remake.
I've been playing video games since we got our Nintendo Famicom in the late 80's, I was like 4 years old at the time. I saw games evolve from 8bit/16bit/32bit graphics to 3D and into like a blockbuster movie we play today. Enough about that, here are some games that will look good with today's graphics and technology:

[Toy Review] Sora Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance Play Arts Kai


Dream Drop Distance (or "3D") is the 6th Kingdom Hearts sequel for the Nintendo 3DS. Its story took place after Kingdom Hearts 2 and Re: Coded. It's also the last bridge towards Kingdom Hearts 3. Unfortunately, I haven't played the game yet, no 3DS, but I have the next good thing. I got this awesome Play Arts Kai figure of Sora as an alternative after failing yet again to search for a Vincent PAK. This version of Sora is from that KH3D game, and thanks to the dude at the store for lowering the price of this figure.

[Blog Update] The Typhoon and an Upcoming Review



Typhoon Glenda, I don't know its international name, hit Philippines this month. This typhoon moves slow and have strong winds. It destroyed houses, crops and other properties, and killed people. While I was looking through our window, we see flying roof parts and other debris, and my room is shaking like the wind is going to tear off the 2nd floor of our house. Thankfully we had few casualties than Typhoon Yolanda did and the people recovered quickly and got on to their usual lives.

[Blog Update] My Laptop Died


Hello dear readers and people who stumbled upon my blog!

My laptop died after serving me for 7 years (just in time for my salary). I tried everything to fix the laptop's problem but it failed, I can't even go to the Command Prompt to do some reformatting. Right now I'm using another laptop, not mine obviously. So expect blog post and toy review shortages :(

[Toy Review] Leon S. Kennedy Resident Evil 6 Play Arts Kai


Resident Evil 6 is like a teenage kid with angst and mood swings. The game is good, then suddenly turns bad or boring, then it gets good again. But that didn't stop me from playing and finishing the game and buying this Play Arts Kai action figure of the babe magnet himself, Leon S. Kennedy. RE6 figures are already hinted to appear because the game have that action figure collecting part, but only two characters are made to be an actual real toy at the moment (by Square-Enix). Oh yeah, men like to be like him too, he's that awesome. Leon is my first male PAK figure.
