Early Childhood Memories

A look back at the past of how my gaming passion began ~ Cher Cabula
It was a very distinct memory but I remember it like yesterday. My family has just moved to Antipolo at that time and I was an incoming third year at the best Catholic school in town. I was making the most out of my summer and got so tanned because of it in the process too, My mom had to get something from my godmother’s house and I went with her. It so happens that my godmother’s nephews were there as well. I peeked into the entertainment room and there they were, huddled in front of the TV and flustered over a game. (more…)

Landing My Dream Job

I’ve been reading game review magazines since I was a kid. Ever since I stumbled across EGM and the other old school videogame magazines I had kept on asking my dad 150 PHP so I can run down Cartimar and buy myself the latest issue at the magazine store. However, those were the times when I was still collecting basketball cards because I had neighbors who do, so I was forced to allocate the money I asked for to either the cards or the mag.
There were times when the mag won and there were times the cards won. There was however one thing that stuck, I wanted to be a game reviewer. (more…)
