The Raven Republic
Last June 28, we held the second Iron Fisticuffs tournament. Basically since we’re now looking at other games to play each other at, things naturally turned to that genre which was birthed from the very idea of competition: fighting games. Specifically, Tekken: Dark Resurrection.
Calling all Ravens in the vicinity of Metro Manila!
PHILIPPINE ARMORED CORE TOURNAMENT IV
Just finished uploading about 150 megabytes of pictures to the gallery. High resolution wallpapers, screenshots and scans are there, alongside smaller thumbnails from the previous games.
Yes, I know I could have a lot more interesting pictures by lurking here and here but seeing as those are owned by other people and not FromSoft itself, I decided not to.
If you’re only going to check out one area from the dozens of new ones, check out the Armored Core: for Answer screens and scans, which are mainly sourced from the AC Wiki. White Glint and that 1st Ranker blue AC are so beautiful in hi-res they make my eyes water.
Anyway, just check it out.
Thank you Big Rigs, the best game ever made. If it weren’t for your greatly detailed textures and spot-on collision detection, as well your tight controls and realistic physics, this shot would have never happened.
Yeah there’s Rick Jesus in the center, and Goat Iscariot to his side. The other disciples may have moved around a bit though. For comparison’s sake:
After a year and a half we finally decided to go and do it: buy ourselves the grand domain name of ravenrepublic.net. Sure some of that underground, free flavor will have been lost, but I don’t think it matters now anyway. We know who we are. Now it’s time to let the rest of the world know.
Plus now that I look back having a cjb.net domain makes us look like freeloaders and amateurs. Haha.
In case of any troubles with the new address like broken links or error pages, direct your questions and complaints to the help desk.
Raven Republic (.net). Spread the word.
Late updates seem to be the norm around here. Gotta change that for the New Year, RR!
Just this past December 28 to 29, a number of us went to have some R&R (the real R&R) over at Tagaytay Highlands. Once again, care of the kind sforzando, we stayed at a pretty nice condominium unit with all sorts of activities and good eats planned.
The majority of the Armored Core fanbase is abuzz with the new AC game that From Software has announced. What started out as a mysterious counter on the Armored Core site has now erupted into a full scale information feeding frenzy. Named “Armored Core: for Answer” (as far as I know, anyway), the game deviates from the usual premise of single player missions and eventually online versus by finally putting in what some fans have been clamoring for for a long time: coop missions. In huge, wide open spaces. Against huge, wide bosses/fortresses. With transforming mechs. Online.
