“Fix” Snap Steam installed games

Recently I installed a Snap package of the Steam application on my Ubuntu 16.04. I read about it in a blog post and just had to try it out. I’ve been migrating my most used desktop applications into their Snap versions over the past year, so why not Steam too. It’s “cleaner” that way, or…

Gaming on Steam Deck in PH

Early last year, I was thinking about getting a gaming PC. Already started asking around and looking at the prices of the components that I thought I would need to build my gaming machine. While the desire was there, something was always holding me back. (More expensive than I thought.) Then I found out late…

NieR:Automata and DLC Country Locked

For the Nintendo Switch game version. This is a fantastic game! Loving it. I happened to stumble upon a games news article talking about which Nintendo Switch games to play that have recently been released or coming out soon. That was in October. A month or so later, and here I am playing NieR:Automata The…

MHRise: 5m 49s Nargacuga Kill

It has been several weeks since I have completed the main Monster Hunter Rise quest line. That is, all of the elder dragon quests starting from Wind Serpent Ibushi, Narwa The Allmother up to Crimson Glow Valstrax. That last one is surely one big and mean dragon. He is one of the more annoying dragons…

Nintendo Switch Send To Smartphone Connection Failure

Nintendo Switch‘s Send to Smartphone feature as a way to share screenshots and videos from Album to smartphone keeps on failing to connect. 🙅 I don’t know why. I must have tried this three or four times, but each time it would fail to work. This sucks! 🙄 I have a Samsung A52 phone with…

Here Boy, Go Fetch!

Yes, this is not a post about a puppy or any living, furry, four-legged companions that many people love and keep at home. Unfortunately. Rather… This is about Diablo III non-combat pets that were intentionally and unintentionally acquired during the course of playing wasting thousands of hours on this once classic and popular, hack and…

This Razer Naga Epic Is Worth Every Dollar

Razer. For gamers this brand is synonymous to expensive and sexy and cool. I probably could not afford any of their gaming laptops or desktops. I mean I could save up for it but I guess it won’t be practical for the kind of games that I play. But, oh boy, would I love to…

DotA @ over 37,000!!!

en route to my destination one friday in a kinda distant past, i was rather bored with the shows that were available on the rather tiny screen in a rather smallish A320 aircraft. the seating is cramped, as what is expected of economy class flights. and if you are claustrophobic, flying this way certainly is…

The 6th installment of the very successful Humble Indie Bundle (HIB) includes the acclaimed Adventure RPG (ARPG) Torchlight. Released back in 2009, this is the first part of the franchise from Runic Games. This particular game (well actually it was Torchlight 2, the sequel) has caught my eye, and interest, for the past month since…

Diablo 3 And Why It Sucks

We’ve  been had. I feel Blizzard has been “playing” its players with Diablo 3 all along. I’ve got over 250 hours logged on my Barbarian (I think it’s close to 300 or even more) and guess how many drops I’m actively using? There’s like only 4! This is not even BIS (best in slot) items,…

Gone To Tristram. Will Be Back After Inferno.. .

Have not posted for a while on this blog here. Blame it on work where more than half the time I’m forced to use Windows because we’re using MS SQL on a project. I can’t complain though. I’m learning new things. Which can only be good, right? However the above is not entirely true. That…

Lord of Ultima for Ubuntu

Lord Of Ultima – One of the two games from EA that is now available for download straight out of the Ubuntu Software Center. EA, that sounds familiar doesn’t it? Of course! It is the same game software developer and publisher who has brought us the hit games such as Battlefield and The Sims. Surprising…

DotA 2 Coming Soon To PC and Mac

No that is not some cheap play on words to get you to read this post. It is not a typographical error too. The title says what it says. DotA 2 is really coming out. And you thought Heroes of Newerth (HoN) is the [unofficial] sequel to the very popular Warcraft 3 mod – Defense…
