The Episode of Satan Morroc is just around the corner, few more months and the Episode of Another World will be reaching our shores. This is the episode in which 3rd Jobs will be accessible. But what would this episode change in the system, or will it create another set of bandwagon waves for players who just love to cookie-cut?
Well personally, this will be one massive episode [much more intense and gameplay-changing than Heritage Episode] that will change the entirety of the game and its players. As far as I can see almost every class on the first set [2-1 Classes] have something special to dish out whether on monsters, or other players. Hopefully there will be no underdoggings in this episode and it will be a matter of skill, strategy and perfect attitude from this moment on.

In cooperation with the humble citizens of Baldur comes a pristine booth inspired by one of the most beautiful cities in Midgard- Amatsu.
“While this year is much much better than last year, the competition is extremely fierce as well because our audience will be local and international gamers. This year is a no non-sense year for the booth organizers”
So what is in store for this collaborative booth concept? Two primary side-events and more surprise events await our guests. Have a taste of the authentic traditional Japanese ambiance despite the fact that the space is extremely limited. Have a shot at our games and you might take home limited edition Siroma Dolls and other imported-from-other-cities merchandise.
So if you guys are interested, visit our booth on October 18-19, 2008 at the World Trade Center, Pasay City to experience a massive gathering of gamers under one massive venue.

*wipes forehead* For our avid readers and guests we would like to apologize for delayed updates because we’re preparing for an event about a month from now. And our website will be updated from time to time so you guys will see its development. Clue? Cherry Blossoms. And yes it is related to Ragnarok Online.

I believe every MMORPG player knows Ragnarok Online as it conquered a huge chunk of the gaming population and it has been running for almost six years now [about five years in the Philippines]. In the Philippines, its success is beyond massive especially on its first years it has been a household icon because it encompassed a vast age bracket of players in a distinct not-too-mushy-2d-not-too-hardcore-3d-just-right-cutesy game play.
Cabal Online reached the Philippine shores just recently, and it made a boom on its first weeks; attracting the population of gamers who tried Ragnarok Online as well. Critics gave it a nod, praise and overwhelming feedback.
We will proceed to evaluate the two games in the succeeding posts, divided into several aspects and will compare and contrast the two games of today as they battle it out which is better and which is just plain common.

This is probably my first time to do a site review. And it’s going to be big because our maiden issue is about the company who brought my favorite game of all time- Ragnarok Online. Today we will be checking out Level Up Games and let’s see what makes it appealing to its gamers. Our review contains different categories to show how far the website fared against our standards through a system of candy points. Excited enough? Read on. *wink*
Sexiness
The Level Up site is a very appealing site as it gives off vivid graphical experience, you’ll get a dilemma where to actually go first. The links are well organized now, and to my taste it’s not cluttered because the links will lead to the information and updates a player needs. Because of the overhaul and lots of upgrade than the previous appearance, I’m giving the site four candy points. 
Update Factor
One, if not the most, important factor for a site to be informative is constant updating of facts and news. This is one of the main issues that has been cleared, and I think this is one of the best upgrades of the site from its previous schemes. Updates will keep the player aware of what’s hot and what’s not in the game they are in together with the latest in the system upgrades or upcoming patches. The “constant update thing” will never go wrong, and will not let a player hanging from nowhere. Five candy points for the successful updating scheme. =D
Eye Candy
The Level Up Games website is a graphical fireworks display with all the flashing advertisements promoting the games to the good color combination. I think it was a wise palette choice to choose black-graphite background to make the fiery scheme of the game advertisements stand out. Well besides, background is supposed to be found at the back. [Lol >.<]. For the Eye Candy Factor, I’m giving the site four candy points.
The Verdict
Providing fresh information without sacrificing visual quality and interactivity. The new and improved Level Up Games site proved its worth to pass our standards. We’re just hoping it will be in a constant roll of updates for the benefit of the players, and possibly newcomers. I would like to suggest constant site face lift as well, not because it’s a girl thing but a site that constantly shifts to the needs of its users may need constant upgrade and getup change as well. A good-looking site today may be a turnoff in a while because it is always the same thing you’re seeing.

That was fun. And I hope you had a great time reading the post as well. Stay tuned for more updates. *bows*
