Turn Your Reciepts Into​ Cash

Shopping triggers two emotional responses: gratification and remorse. Most of the time we feel gratified from purchasing items we’ve long pined for. Conversely, when we end up spending more than we should, it’s the latter that takes hold. Shopping is great, and we shouldn’t feel guilty about buying things as long as it’s within our allowed spending budget. To rid you of the guilt of shopping, Snapcart found a way to incentivize shoppers through its app. Here’s how.

2016 Mitsubishi Lancer EX GT-A 2.0 CVT

This is it: the last Lancer. Mitsubishi confirmed earlier this year that it will discontinue the production of vehicles under the Lancer name except in Taiwan and China.This means that the 2016 Lancer EX GT-A 2.0 CVT will be the lineage’s swan song—the last descendant of a family of cars that to us Filipinos was almost synonymous with the Mitsubishi brand.We got to test it out before it fully goes out of production, leaving the Mirage to represent Mistubishi’s sedan range on its own. We take a look at whether the most recent GT-A serves as a fitting farewell to such a beloved and iconic name.

CTR - Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled

During the 90s, Mario Kart was the game of choice when it came to cartoon racing games. While there were many challengers, such as Sonic Drift for the Sega Game Gear and Mickey’s Racing Adventure for the Game Boy Color, everyone mostly played Mario Kart. Sony’s answer to the Nintendo juggernaut was Crash Team Racing, which originally came out in 1999. Twenty years later, we get a remake called Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, which follows in the footsteps of the 2017-2018 releases of the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy, the remake of the platformer trilogy. Nitro-Fueled also includes content from the 2003 game Crash Nitro Kart and the 2005 game Crash Tag Team Racing.

Mordhau

Several years ago, I was very intrigued by a game called Chivalry: Medieval Warfare. It was one of a handful of successful mods that arose from the Half-life series. One of my biggest complaints is that combat was very clunky and the learning curve was extremely high (think trying to master rocket science in a high school physics class). Regardless, it was one of the first first-person multiplayer medieval combat games out there. Its awkwardness and steep learning curve didn’t keep my attention for too long.
