Centaku Media: South Korea Bound

I posted on my Twitter a while back of an acquisition of exciting proportions! It’s a key to an upcoming adventure coming later in 2019 that will change my life as I have made it to Level 30 on this planet. I have obtained my very first passport! It took a year, maybe more, or […]

Backseat Gaming, and You – #PoorSportsmanship

For those who are just tuning in, I would like to explain to you what “Backseat Gaming” means. It seems it’s a term used in a very few places, especially in the online world, but such an activity could have happened to you, and you may not realize it.

Eorzea Journal Update #2 – A Little Rusty

This is the first update for the Eorzea Journal in a very long time! And it’s also the second one in our written series in a while, too. The first one, I thought, was going to be a series that would last for more than that, on the Jenova realm. While plans fell apart for […]

Interesting Find: What If Jet Set Radio Was on the Nintendo Switch?

Another April Fools Day is done. While there are many convincing jokes for the day that comes once a year, there was one that really, really needs to come to reality. For those out of the loop–like 20 years behind–there was a game released for the Dreamcast called Jet Set Radio (or Jet Grind Radio […]

The 24 K-Pop Concerts I Attended in the 2010s

Back in February 2018, I made a personal accomplishment by attending 20 K-Pop concerts since 2012. The first K-Pop concert I ever attended was BIGBANG‘s first world tour, held at the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ. Since then, a close friend made it an effort to attend as many K-Pop concerts as physically and financially possible. […]

“We Need A Healer!” – #PoorSportsmanship

In the mid-2000s, before I launched the original Centaku Media blog, I used to highlight horrible players for the pettiest things done upon unsuspecting players, including getting kicked from a Linkshell in Final Fantasy XI because of “spies”, and myself getting told I needed to heal more, playing a level 20 Red Mage, from a […]

A Retail Horror Story, As Told By A Starving Otaku

This is a story that I’m pretty sure everyone can relate to (and one which will especially explain my absence for so long) when it comes to working in the retail industry. I originally thought of just writing this as a personal Facebook post, but it would be too long… So why not share with […]

Unfollowing Twitter Users After 10+ Years

September 29th marks the 11th anniversary (or #Twitterversary) since I registered an account on Twitter. And the timing is perfect as I finally got the nerves to return to the microblogging platform and clear nearly 400 Twitter accounts from my feed. Well, not EVERYONE. Just the ones who betrayed me. 😀 Not really. 😀 After […]
