XCOM: Enemy Unkown


Tekkie Tekie Muna (Drop whatever it is you’re doing, magbasa muna ng aking gustong sabihin), there’s this new game, or sort of a revival, remake, or watever of an old but popular game back then.

“Incoming na yung X-Com remake (XCOM: Enemy Unknown, from the old euro title from microprose) ngayong Oct 11. The best version is on Steam, with a free civ 5 when you pre-purchase.





To those old enough to remember the golden age of PC gaming (read: DOS gaming), you can easily suck into hundreds of hours in the award-winning original. It seems that firaxis heavily tweaked the system while retaining the core gameplay. I hope that they fixed the hex-edit trick to get the uber-armor.” says ShinjoYukatsu



“With regards to the tweaks, I’ll try to appreciate the new XCOM game for what it is pero mamimiss ko lang yung inventory ng soldiers at time units sa original X-COM at yung eerie sound and music at yung medyo nakakatakot sumugod at nakakagulat na alien turns lalo na pag night missions na iniiwasan ko dati. Di na rin ata pwedeng mag intercept ng ufo pag in transit na yung transport aircraft at marami pang iba. In short, marami silang tinweak. Oh well, lalabas siya rin sa consoles so it follows na dapat console gamer friendly din yung bagong XCOM.” says MrBungle

All About SSDs


Tekkie Tekkie Muna (Slow down at bumaba muna sa kabayong mabilis), did you now that SSDs are now slowly replacing HDDs, probably because there's a significant loading time speed performance improvement.

If you're still on HDDs then its either your current PC speed is still tolerable for you, or you didn't know there was an SSD, .....or you just don't care mainly because you're just using your PC as a word processor.




But if ever you would like to replace your Jurassic hard drives, here are some reviews and recommendations.

Intel SSD 520 Review

I think upgrading to SSD would be a lot of help in terms of minimizing the micro-stuttering issues in D3 based from this video:



Vertex 4 is hands down the most worth it SSD to buy today that is available locally.

Retail Intel brand SSD has international warranty like their processors. If you bought an Intel SSD in the US you can claim manufacturer’s warranty here in the Philippines via Intel Customer Support.

Read from some sites that due to NAND flash shortage, OCZ used enterprise grade NAND to continue fulfilling Vertex 4 demands.

Donate Your Used Tarpaulins


Please help us in our advocacy to help our poor communities in the sectors of livelihood and education - the two most needed in our society to help it rise up from poverty.

The movement aims to deliver a two stage project:

1. Livelihood
To convert old and used tarpaulins into useful items like reusable bags to minimize plastic usage, tents for emergency relief housing to serve as temporary shelters after recent disasters like floods and earthquakes, school bags for school children especially those in the remote provinces, etc.

We will be employing housewives, the unemployed and out of school children to form a cooperative to transform the tarpaulin waste into usable crafts.

2. Donation
We will be visiting the depressed communities both within the metro and in the provinces to donate the outputs of our hardworking countrymen thru the help of NGOs, movements, advocates, and in cooperation with the LGUs.


Communicate with us:
