Who says cuteness and competitiveness cannot go together?
Without a doubt, Shanda Group was the leading online game developer in China by early 1999. They are the ones who developed the cute but highly competitive game called Crazy Kart that once touched so many hearts, including the Filipinos. On July 31, 2013, with a heavy feeling, Shanda Group finally had their last race and let Bakal Boy, Tweetums, Sid, and other characters maneuver on their own. #DriveFree
When Shanda Group licenses CrazyKart overseas, various countries in Asia availed of the franchise, including the Level Up! Games, the Philippines' forefront of successfully localizing foreign games such as Ragnarok Online, RF Online, Flyff, Cabal Online, and immeasurably more.
Nowadays, when somebody mentions "CrazyKart," it sounds like jargon. But from 2008 to 2013, Crazy Kart is widely known in the Philippines, and it is seemingly one of the reasons why high school students in the country cut class. Not emphasizing the unfavorable impact of this game, but to give a clear manifestation that this game dominates back then.
Out of longingness for the competitive gameplay, In 2018, Shanghai Longwan Network Technology Co., Ltd. reached out to Shanda that their company is more than excited to take over and has decided to bring CrazyKart back to life from a 5-year death.
Shanda's game licensing agreement that the game developers and online racers care about is successfully signed. Therefore, game development is continuous under the new management of Shanghai Longwan Network Technology Co., Ltd.
To somehow ease the anxiety brought by the Covid-19, Here's a piece of good news. The server is up and running smoothly! Even if it is a China-based game, there is a character named Bakal Boy waiting for you in-game and a racetrack called Pinas where you can compete intensively around the Mall of Asia while listening to Tsuper Duper by Ang Bandang Shirley. How cool is that?
The in-game ambiance appears to be adorable like Cocomelon or as soft as a marshmallow, but "After you" is not a thing here. No matter how low your level is, whether a sprout or a king, still, your opponents are traitors that will not give any consideration. They can charge destructing unique skills that will take you behind them from a 100-kilometer lead. So, be ready to fall, jump, drift, spin, and fly!
Now, are you mystified how Bakal Boy and the Pinas racetrack look? Why don't you try playing the game and see for yourself? There are a lot of updates coming. Nevertheless, the server is percent playable 24/7.

Remember Half-life? and that creepy loading screen showing a bald man with a valve on his head? Well, that game is turning 22 years old today.
Based on Kirkland, Washington, Valve was formed by the former Microsoft employees Mike Harrington and Gabe Newell. Their first video game product was Half-life which was inspired by the FPS titles Doom in 1993, Quake in 1997, The Mist of Stephen King in 1980 and a 1963 episode titled "The Borderlands" of The Outer Limits.
During the development, the game was developed in Quake engine by Id Software and modified the engine to make the GoldSrc engine. Valve signed with Sierra On-line to publish the game and on November 19, 1998, Half-life was released. The game receives critical acclaim from different critics and achieved commercial success worldwide.
In 2004, Valve released the second sequel of the game, Half-Life 2. And the sequel created different series like the Lost Coast in 2005, Episode One in 2006 and Episode Two in 2007.
After 2007, Valve didn't released upcoming sequel of Half-life for decades and cancelled different titles for the game. In 2020, Valve releases a new game for Half-life, but in VR, the Half-Life Alyx that were set before Half-Life 2 story.
Feel so old right? What are your fondest memories from the Half-Life game? Let us know in the comment section.

One of the most inconvenient events that may happen to all of us is having an intermittent connection, especially today, most of us are now working from home and students having online classes. What if you were working on a deadline and the internet connection suddenly stopped? You will be left hanging, wasting time until the connection comes back. Or what if you are just playing your favorite MOBA game, Dota 2 and your Internet connection suddenly stopped? You will get hammered with a low-priority penalty that takes time to recover.
Having an internet backup connection during internet interruption is very crucial, but since this unfortunate event rarely happens, we should look for an internet backup that doesn't break our wallet but reliable.
You probably heard GOMO! from our previous post that went viral, it is a new digital telco that provides Internet data with "no expiration". It is like a bank, but for your internet data. Because of this feature, using GOMO as your Internet backup will save you a lot of money without worrying about extra monthly bill for an internet you only use as a backup. You load it, and only use it when there is no internet connection.
The only drawback of GOMO is their poor network coverage, Globe, their network partner, does not have enough towers that will give strong internet connection in every area of the Philippines. The speed you will be getting will depends on the Globe signal. So, before deciding on using this guide make sure you already know the internet speed connection in your area. If it is good, well this is for you!
Lastly, only use this guide when your main internet connection is from other Telcos, and not from Globe. Also do not use this guide if your sole purpose is to make it your primary internet connection, promise, it will cost you even more. Also, this guide involves replacing the built-in sim with the Globe Prepaid WiFi router which will void the warranty of your device. If all good for you, let's go ahead.
In this article, we will show you how we pair GOMO And Globe Prepaid WiFi as our cheapest backup internet connection.
GOMO and Globe Prepaid Wifi

Their newest Globe Prepaid Wifi is an 4G/LTE router that cost around PHP 999, it comes with a Globe sim that has a 10GB FREE data. However, in this guide, we will not use it.
On the other hand, GOMO Sim is a 5G ready sim and it is currently available through online via their official website at gomo.ph or from Lazada and Shopee. They currently have a promotional price of PHP 199 from PHP 299 that includes FREE 25GB of data. You can check here our GOMO Sim review and unboxing for other details.

Lastly, the 12v (1amp) charger that powers the WiFi router.
We are now done with our quick unboxing; let's proceed on how we can use GOMO With Globe Prepaid Wifi.
How to Use GOMO With Globe Prepaid WiFi
First, you need to insert your GOMO Sim into your mobile phones to get your FREE 25GB data load. You need to download the GOMO app from Google Play (Android) or App Store (iOS) to activate the sim.
Once done, we can now insert our GOMO sim into our Globe prepaid WiFi router.
At the bottom, remove the warranty sticker seal to reveal the router's sim card slot. Once done, push the sim card to untack it, then replace it with the GOMO sim.
Now, boot up the router. In few minutes, you should be connected to the internet. If you have a desktop computer, you can connect through UTP cable to access the admin dashboard. For wireless connection, the Wi-Fi SSID and password are located at the back of the router.
For accessing the admin dashboard, here are the login details.
Note: Internet speed connection that you will get will still depends byyourgeographicallocation. In our case, this speed test result is from General Santos City at Barangay Lagao. The nearest tower is 2.26 km.
The same speed test result on our GOMO Review, we got 13.6 Mbps download speed and 9.9 Mbps upload speed with 78 Ping, enough to browse websites and play your favorite video games. The speed result is not bad for an area that is far from the tower.
While near the Globe tower, we get something like a 40Mbps download and 20Mpbs upload speed.
Conclusion
GOMO and Globe Prepaid Wifi as your internet backup connection is a great deal, it serves as like your emergency kit. Rather than subscribing to an expensive monthly bill that you only use when there is no internet connection, you'll be saving a lot of money with GOMO because of its unique feature "no expiry" of data load.
You can stack up data load onto your GOMO account without worrying about your load getting expired. You only use it when intermittent internet connection kicks in and you still have enough data for the next downtime.
For PHP 299 of 25GB data, you can do a 1-day extensive work or even more. It can even download a full game Player Unknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) and has extra data.
For those who are planning to use this as your main home internet connection, please don't. It is going to be expensive.
