Pardon the pun, but look at these babies.
I knew that they were getting new games and I also knew that they were getting a new shooter but check “The End is Near.” It’s a new game but the campaign they’re doing is utterly different.
Let’s wait and see.
MOG TV aired its first episode and it sure looked fun! The hosts were fun to watch and the segments were informative as well. Here’s a first clip that I got from Youtube.
They got their own Youtube Channel. Search for AngMOGTV’s Channel and you’ll get the rest of the segments they did.
I heard that their game segments will be more varied on the next episdoes, meaning it won’t just be about e-Games titles. Second episode will have DOTA which is Defense of the Ancients, tips on securing online game accounts, and more gaming reviews. I really liked the Acer Aspire Predator gaming review although I wish they could have put in more stuff about it. But great first episode. Kudos to e-Games and TV 5 for their first Gaming and Tech show.
Audition Celebrity Dance Battle, the first TV dance contest based on the highly popular Audition Dance Battle debuted on Philippine National TV last Sunday. It was shown at SOP, popular GMA TV Sunday musical variety show.
Check out the Youtube video here.
They invited me to watch it and it was aweseome, especially meeting the finest Filipino actors and actresses, singers and dancers.
Audition Celebrity Dance Battle will air for three consecutive Sundays at SOP so watch out for it. Some really great stuff is happening for Audition Dance Battle and its parent company X-Play. Stay tuned folks.
e-GAmes, our favorite online game publisher in the Philippines, is cooking up some major stuff this quarter. I just got to talk with an e-Gamer perp and showed me what they’re working and it just looks great. I can’t reveal the specifics but it’ll give players more reason to play their games and visit their web site. if they pull this off, it’ll blow the competition out of the water. Stay tuned!
It’s been more than a month since I updated the the e-Games Grapevine/Gamevine. Blame it on work, but mostly on long vacations (even though it rained for the most part). But it was a welcome respite. Now I’m back, fully recharged and I’ve got some big updates.
First up is e-Games e-Gamer Millionaire promo. If you’re living in the Philippines and you’re an active gamer, just buy an e-Games EP card and you get a raffle entry.

Wow. The Christmas and New Year season must have been really good to me because I completely forgot about updating the e-Games Grapevine close to a month. But better late than never because e-Games has got a lot of cool stuff coming out this year.

Pretty Snazzy right? What is the Dark and Light? I’ll reveal more when I squeeze more from the e-Games rep that I talked to. Cabal Online’s getting ready for Lord of War Patch which they say will make the Nation Wars even more compelling.
