PS3 Exclusive The Last of Us now available in the Philippines

the last of us philippines

There’s a lot of life left in the PS3 even post-E3 and that’s saying a lot. As the current generation of consoles come to a close, the PS3 has aged gracefully. While Sony is set to release the PS4 this November, they’ve given gamers a sweet parting gift — The Last of Us. Developed by Naughty Dog (in my opinion the best AAA-game studio developer also responsible for the Uncharted series), this PS3-exclusive has a hype that truly does justice to the actual product, from more than two years of previews, teasers, live-action trailers and let’s play videos. It’s finally here. The Last of Us has strategy guides available in digital and in print. You can opt to buy book online for a hard copy.

BlackBerry Q10 with QWERTY keyboard and LTE available TODAY for PHp 31,990.00

BLACKBERRY Q10

Several weeks ago I reviewed the first BlackBerry 10 handheld to hit local shores, the BB Z10. It was essentially the Canadian company’s foray into a revamped OS to keep up with the ever-changing market. In that review I basically spelled out how the new OS is both condemning and innovative: the new OS doesn’t provide any new innovation that makes it stand out (unless of course you’re a BlackBerry Hub loyalist in which case my argument is moot) but it also has something great going for it — Android compatibility. This is what I had to say back then regarding that:

The MultiCharger-X iPad charging dock for schools is yours for PHP 39,999

ultimate charging dock msi ecs

Presenting … the Emperor of Energy. The Principal of Power. The Baron of Batteries. This is one sick charging dock on wheels for 10 iPads. Meant for the office or school setting, the MultiCharger-X is really built for tablet-centric organizations (or for people who just really have money to spare!).

For schools, the charging dock allows you to sync with one computer for transferring files. But really, it’s 10 chargers on wheels with a safety lock. Yours for PHP 40,000.

Plants vs Zombies II: It’s About Time

CG intro, plants (and more plants!) and the hint of time travel with the neat Back to the Future reference. It’s about time for Plants vs Zombies 2! However — based on the details on the website, the game will be launched exclusively on iOS for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch this coming July 2013.

Regarding the exclusivity, a Popcap representative had this to say:

I will keep putting this info out there today but I want the community to know, we are only exclusive to Apple first. We have plenty more info to hand out just not quite yet. When I have more news to share, I will indeed. And we are reading your comments and understand your concerns. That’s why I keep trying to post replies in here so you all know what’s up!

So it seems that the word “exclusive” actually means first to launch and that it should be available on other devices (Mac, PC, Android) after a period of time.

Congratulations to Joyce de Vera, winner of the Jollibee MILO Mix-In contest!

joyce de vera

Congratulations to Joyce de Vera who made use of the Camera360 + Cymera combo. Joyce, we will be in touch for your prize. Thank you!

“I first used a camera app Camera360 while taking our photos in Jollibee, to have an amazing effect such as Magic Skin – Glossy. Then I used Cymera to add more effects and it is the best camera app for the portraits. It has everything I need in a camera and photo editor to help me create photos by applying hand-picked filters and the best beauty effects, run through our own face detection technology. I was with my eldest sister that time. We had our late lunch in Jollibee.

We ordered Jollibee value meals: Jolly Hotdog Classic, Yum! with Cheese, 2 large fries, 2 cups of Sarsi, and for our dessert, we had 2 MILO Mix-In Cookie Berry and Pretzel Krunch. It was my first time to try it out and I was definitely surprised. For only P38, this dessert is definitely awesome! My sister and I enjoyed our meals and the time we spent together in Jollibee because of its coziness atmosphere. Hopefully, we’re going back there this week to buy MILO Mix-In for our family. Thank you.”

For those who joined, thank you! You can still an awesome experience by going to the nearest Jollibee store and have a Milo Mix-in sundae. They come in two variants: the creamy Jollibee ice cream choco cookies mixed in with pretzels and MILO, or you can opt for a Mix In with strawberry syrup, cookies and MILO if you want a more fruity tang. These desserts cost PHP 38.00 a cup and are available nationwide.
