MS just bought Activision Blizzard. Crash and Spyro - beloved PS mascot is now a Microsoft IP. Weird times! But the interesting part of this whole acquisition ay kung ano ang magiging epekto nito sa PlayStation. Are they doomed? Time to switch to Xbox na ba? Me, Marc, and Brien share our thoughts regarding this massive move by Microsoft.  We also talk about our most anticipated games of 2022...

It will always be a discussion kung ano ang best film ni Makoto Shinkai. But for me, 5 Centimeters per Second 'yung may pinaka malakas na emotional impact sa akin. Makoto Shinkai's storytelling and themes about distance and moving on resonated with me so much I can't help but make a Side Quest episode about it. Sobrang lala. In this episode, I invited John of Puro Ka Laro! Podcast, the one who rec...

Second to the last episode of TGS ngayong 2021 ay para sa isa sa mga OG video game podcaster ng Pinas - si Jaemi De Guzman ng Puro Ka Laro! Podcast. Finally! Years in the making ito. Pero maliban sa pagiging podcaster, gamer, streamer - writer rin si Jaemi sa Rappler. At isa sa mga opinion piece niya tungkol sa Microtransaction e pinagusapan namin sa episode na 'to. (https://www.rappler.com/techno...

Sa lahat ng JRPG na nalaro ko, mas mahirap pa 'yung optional boss kesa sa mismong final boss. Sobrang weird for me lalo na nung bata pa ko at noong una kong na-encounter si Emerald Weapon sa FF7 at Ozma ng FF9. Francis, a new listener of The Gamesilog Show suggested that we make a part 2 of our last year's episode Top 5 Video Game Bosses pero Optional Bosses naman daw. So I invited him sa podcast....

Heeyyyyyyy! Sorry walang bagong episode this week so I decided to upload the audio version of our very first Live Podcast about The Game Awards and Video Game Quiz Night. I'm happy and proud that the event is a success kahit may mga challenges kami dahil hindi pala siya madali guys. But still, you guys stayed and hopefully enjoyed the whole show. Para naman sa mga hindi nakanood ng live at mas gus...

Kumusta? Let's do nostalgia episode guys and gals! Let's talk about the games that made us. On this episode, I invited an OG listener at lehitimong TGS Nakama from the land of kimchi, South Korea - Richie! Pinagkwentuhan namin ni Richie 'yung games na sobrang influential sa amin. Mga games na nalaro namin na hanggang ngayon e we view as the most impactful game sa buhay namin. Tara. Game? Game!

It's no secret that most of the time, we're playing games to "escape". Specially now na adults na tayo, we realized kung gaano ka-importante 'yung video games sa buhay natin. It's our sanctuary. It's our comfort food. It's the place where we can escape and be a badass protagonist that can deal 99,999 damage to our enemies just like in Final Fantasy. Sa episode na 'to, I invited Norvin John of Play...

Happy Anniversary Spider-Man: Miles Morales! On this episode, Kuya Bols joined me to discuss everything about Miles Morales - Story, characters, gameplay, predictions, etc. Sa una I thought chill episode lang pero nagusap rin kami ng ibang social issues. I'll be honest, hindi nagreresonate sa akin si Miles. Hindi ko ma-project 'yung sarili ko sa kanya. Only to find out na malalim 'yung issue sa ak...

Hu Tao - one of the best if not the best Pyro DPS in Genshin Impact rerun banner is back! At hindi lang 'yon, our favorite couple streamer, Nox Playroom is also back to help us discuss why we should pull for Hu Tao. To discuss the importance of DPS, consistent damage, and team compostion. And to explain why Hu Tao is one of the challenging and fun character to have. But wait, there's more! Bien of...

Naranasan mo bang maglinis ng puntod sa sementeryo at sumigaw ng "Ale, Mama, linis nitso!" Naranasan mo bang manguha ng kandila para ipa-kilo? Naranasan mo bang pumorma sa araw ng mga patay kasi baka makasalubong mo si crush? Naranasan mo bang makipag-riot, suntukan, inuman, bangsak, at kung ano-ano pa sa sementeryo? Kami kasi oo. Happy Halloween TGS! This is not your mandatory horror/scary conten...

Hey, Travelers! How's Genshin Impact's Patch 2.2? Na-explore mo na ba ang bagong island? Nakuha mo na ba *ulit* si Childe? Ako, hindi pa. Bien of UniPin Philippines is back to give us their latest promos and events with exciting rewards and prizes! We also invited Rad and Khal of @Nox Playroom to help us discuss the new map, new weapon, and Childe's rerun banner. P.S. We also discussed our best wa...

Have you ever experienced a crisis in your life and a video game saved you? Hindi literal na niligtas ka at naging okay ang lahat but for some reason, a certain video game resonated with you so much it helped you realize something that made you power through with your current ordeal. Ako, oo. Maraming beses na. This episode is very challenging because of the nature of our topic. May mga triggers a...

I remember playing Genshin Impact last year and salivating over Diluc because he's such a badass. Kaso I wasn't able to continue playing it. Is it still worth the time and money? Welcoming ba siya sa mga newbie na katulad ko? I freaking love Kokomi's character design, perfect character ba siya sa aspiring Genshin Impact player na kagaya ko?  UniPin - One of the leading online game voucher provider...

Hindi para sa lahat ang Git Gud games. Susubukan nito ang haba ng pasensya mo at kung hanggang saan ang kaya mong tiisin bago ka mag-rage quit. But on the flipside, may mga gamers na sadyang natural lang talaga. Na tipong 1 try lang sa boss, deds na. Enter Denise Nicole! My favorite console game streamer.  Den joined The Gamesilog Show to discuss her video game history, her journey as a strea...

Mahigit sa tatlong oras na podcast episode. Bago pa ba 'to kapag si Kuya Bols ang guest? Normal na 'to e. Hinimay namin 'yung mga trailers na lumabas sa nakaraang PlayStation Showcase. Nagdiskusyon kung si Logan ba ang pinaka-sikat na Marvel character next kay Spider-Man, kung bakit meh 'yung bagong trailer ng God of War Ragnarok, kung sino ang pwedeng maging main villain ng Spider-Man 2, at higit...

Years in the making ang episode na 'to kasi for some reason, never nag-click sa akin ang Attack on Titan. I know that this is a great show pero kahit ilang ulit ko siyang panoorin, hindi ko matuloy-tuloy. Last month, nag-commit akong tapusin 'yung anime. I made sure na walang distractions like video game or tv shows na pwedeng humati ng attention ko at hindi nga sila nagkamali sa walang sawang pag...

Episode 69! My favorite number of all time. That being said, let's talk about Cryptocurrency, NFTs, and Play To Earn games. Anong connect sa 69? Wala naman. Pareho lang naman silang foreign sa buhay ko ngayon. Kidding aside, Captain Shoti joined us on this episode to discuss these things kasi bilang bonak na tulad ko hindi ko rin talaga gets mga 'to. Play To Earn na ba ang future ng gaming? Malala...

I'm a long time JRPG fan and I didn't know na may mga challenge pa pala itong mga game na 'to. Enter Coach Mukreng. I saw him one time streaming Final Fantasy 9 and the caption is "No Level Up Challenge Final Fantasy 9 100% Complete Playthrough". That caught my eye at simula no'n, madalas na akong manood sa stream niya. It's fascinating, at least for me. Pinagkwentuhan rin namin 'yung top 3 JRPG n...

Okay. There's a lot to unpack here. I'll be honest with you guys. I invited Arturo Caronongan because of recommendation and my fascination with his Crypt of the NecroDancer Platinum Trophy. This trophy is considered as the hardest platinum trophy in PlayStation History. For context, there are only 11 registered platinum achievers (https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/4217-crypt-of-the-necrodancer) and...

Sa tanda ko at experience sa paglalaro ng video games, madalang na akong matakot sa mga horror na genre. It's easy to predict where are the jump scares and what the game is trying to do to create horror and tension. Then I played Nyctophobia Devil Unleashed. Nakakahiyang sabihin pero maraming beses akong nagulat at natakot habang naglalaro. Dinaya ko pa nga 'yung pagsuot ng headphones para ma-less...

Sa mundo ng internet at social media na kung saan napakadali lang maging masamang tao at negatibo, it's rare to meet a stranger that can offer us genuine act of kindness. Isa doon si Darryl Ong ng PlayStation Philippines. Kung member ka ng PlayStation Philippines, malamang nakita mo na ang mga post niya at pati na rin ang The Libreng Hiram Project. Kung hindi pa, ang The Libreng Hiram Project ay i...
