    Korean soap

    Is there anyone here who watches Korean soap drama and romance? It is very popular in Asian countries. Even Japan is having a share of those Korean soap which features romance stories with different backdrop. Right now the most popular is Goblin, a love story of a ghost and a woman who looks...

    Favorite science-fiction show.

    I am not fond of science fiction but my husband is. You can guess that he never fails to watch the X-files. It's just unfortunate that it is now gone in the cable channel. Now he just watch Discovery and National Geographic which has more of science than fiction. He is hoping that the X-files...

    Windows 10

    I have to admit my fear of upgrading to Windows 10. My office laptop is still on Windows 7 and there are talks that our office will upgrade to Windows 10 within this year. I have been hearing of so many issues with upgrades particularly the compatibility of old programs. But what can I do if the...

    What do you all do for a living?

    I am a bank employee for so many years now and I think this will be my job until I retire 5 years from now. If you would ask me, I am happy with my job although sometimes the pressure is too great that I get sick due to excessive stress. But in terms of compensation, I get a high salary although...

    What car do you have? What car do you want?

    Mine is an automatic people's car. It is the Mirage made by Mitsubish with a displacement of only 1200 cc. I chose this small car for my personal use so I can save on gas which is getting costlier each week. But for my dream car, I would love to have a Ferrari which is the status symbol. It's...

    Have you ever made a game?

    It was a long time ago when I was part of the team that created a star trek like game. It was actually a simple dexterity game like tetris but what comes down are stars that were supposed to be bombs. My role in the creation of that game is as designer of the game, the functionality and the...

    First game you ever played..

    Hmm, I don't exactly remember the first game I have played but maybe it is the Pong in the Atari machine. It is a simple pingpong game where you play against the machine. What rattles me was the sound effect that I always get panicky. There's also an option to play with someone and that would be...

    Oldest Computer

    Our home desktop was bought in September 2009 so it is turning 8 this year. But it's still running okay and may last for another year or so. The OS is Windows XP because it has only a 32-bit processor which cannot carry the newer version of Windows much more the Windows 10. But as I said, this...

    Board Games

    I agree with you. I also love Monopoly although sometimes it gets boring when the game extends for hours. In fairness to the game, Monopoly is one good way of bonding with friends or relatives, depending on who you are playing with. The only downside is the duration of the game. At my age now, I...

    If you could live in any game...

    I'm a simple person and I love traveling so maybe I would choose Super Mario of the olden times. They had a lot of places to see and every place presents excitement and suspense. But to be honest, it would be tiring to be traveling continuously especially if the destination has something in...

    What 'Type' of OS do you use?

    We have an old PC at home which is a core duo running on Windows XP. But for the office, I am using an HP Elite laptop which is appropriate for my job because I had to move to 3 offices every once in a while. But don't ask me about the games because our office is very strict with the official...

    At what age did you get your first console/PC?

    To be honest, I never had a console of my own. I only play with my friends who have computers at home. In the earlier years of computer game, I was fortunate to have a classmate who has an Atari box that is connected to the tv. We would be playing after classes and it was really lots of fun...

    Why do you actually enjoy gaming?

    Thanks for agreeing and I'm glad to know that we are on the same boat. I also love playing with the computer. Right now, my diversion is Candy Crush. It is a simple game of dexterity and not so exciting as the interactive games where you can play with an opponent. However, that robotic game...

    How many hours do you play a day?

    During my playing days when I was younger, I play for 1 hour and a maximum of 2 hours per day. But that's only for the weekdays because I am occupied during the weekend. So if I would get my own laptop and install games for my entertainment, I would still probably spend just the same amount of...

    Who uses a laptop for gaming?

    We have a desktop at home but I have a laptop for my official computer in the office. It's just sad that our office is very strict when it comes to installing software. The USB port of my laptop is even blocked. But anyway, I am looking forward to my husband's plan to buy a laptop and I'm sure I...

    Are Games good for you! (Short Article I wrote on Games)

    There is a saying that "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." With that premise, it is obvious that man invented games so he would enjoy life and not be confined to just working and eating and sleeping. Even when we were young before the digital age, there were the traditional kid's games...

    Worst Game Ever Played?

    I don't remember much but the name of the game is Pong and it's inside the Atari machine (that is hooked on tv). Once in a while, my husband would borrow the Atari of his friend and we would play at home. I couldn't forget that Pong game because I had never won and in fact, I got peeved when I...

    Renting games before buying?

    My nephew is not a game addict but he is up to date when it comes to games. I remember that I first heard DOTA from him when I was ignorant of the meaning which he told me. Anyway, my nephew would go to a cyber shop to test the games before buying. Some cyber shops that specialize in games are...

    Why do you actually enjoy gaming?

    For me, a computer game is like any social game where I play with someone. Interactive games are exciting mainly because of the opponent who is on the other line. Playing a game helps me forget the worries especially the tension in the job. But I also play game apps once in a while. Would you...

    Are there any games you can play over and over and never tire of?

    Hmm, this is hard to think but I will settle for NBA. I am a fan of basketball during my younger years and playing computer basketball is like playing real basketball because the animation looks real when I am playing my second half of the game. What I like in this game is the tricks of handling...
