Recently a group of online game providers Level-up Games organized a 2 day event (November 3-4 2007) for Paradise Philippines Online Gamer Community, Level - Up Live 2007. And it was set to create a record to be the biggest online gaming event in the country.

Level - UP Live 2007 : Logged and Loaded at the World Trade Center Philippines is such a huge success. The crowd was unexpected, the booths were blockbuster, the games and the goodies are making the crowd crazy and alive. And what’s the best in this event is that you can have all the fun for just 50 pesos as a registration fee.

Manila is an eclectic mix of old and new, of elegance and frugality, and of stillness and activity. It is a mishmash of everything Philippines, where heritage sites and cultural centers throb to the vibe of commerce and recreation in Manila. As the Philippines head into the storm months of the year, Manila shows another of the city’s paradox: the crazy weather.

Manila by October blends rain and sun. One minute Manila is bright then overcast in the next. Either way, Manila is the place to be in October. Just as rain and sun make rainbows appear, Manila is bound to shine this time of the year as attractive season’s specials at G Hotel Manila brings the city in style to Manila visitors.

That line in the song of Greenday, makes me think of the number of overseas Filipino workers who will be coming home for the Christmas season in this paradise Philippines. September, the rightful start of the ‘ber’ months, signifies the coming of the Yuletide celebration. As the whole world knows, Christmas in the Philippines is like no other. We start off early (as I’ve said, as early as September), and end the celebrations at a later date – by the end of January in the preceding year. Because of that, our kababayans abroad cannot allow the season of Yule to pass without visiting their dear homeland – the Philippines.

Most of us, Pinoys are lakwatsera(travelers) at heart. “Tara pahangin tayo.. Punta tayo sa Mall.” or “Tara pasyal tayo sa Mall” are common phrases you will hear from Pinoys encouraging a friend or a family member to go to a nearest mall with no shopping intentions. We are easily thrilled by walking at the mall, window shopping and/or chatting with a friend or family.

Pinoy just love to have fun with their love ones, family and/or friends. We tend to find time from our busy days to be with them and have some fun filled activities. And one of the favorite Pinoy hangouts especially the MASA is the Star City in CCP Complex, Pasay City.

The park is open Mondays – Fridays (4:00pm -onwards) and Saturdays - Sundays/Holidays (1:00pm - onwards). You can almost find everything at Star City from tiangge, food, rides and games.

Here are some of their rides and attractions you will find at Star City:
