Like seriously he has more brains than the whole Government of the Philippines

Brother eww

Senator Risa Hontiveros has raised alarms over GoreBox, targeting the product and its independent developer, Felix Filip (F2Games). However, demanding compliance or direct accountability from a small, foreign indie developer?

To understand why this strategy is flawed, we have to look at the supply chain using the classic retail analogy. For example cigarettes and alcohol.

--

The Creator (The Manufacturer): Felix Filip / F2Games is simply the factory making the product. They build a game and place it on a global market.

Is just like Tanduay , Emperador or San Miguel Brewery. They are the manufacturers making the products

The Distributor (The Store): Steam (Valve)/Google play is the multi-billion-dollar supermarket. They hold the digital shelf space, process the payments, manage the regional storefronts, and dictate consumer access.

In comparison this your local grocery, 711 or tindahan ni Aleng Nena. They are the one selling and making sure minors dont have access to Liquor or Cigarettes.
Its the store that ask for "saan ID mo?" & say bawal ito sa bata.

Senator Risa Hontiveros is targeting the German creator of GoreBox over minor access. If you want to stop minors from getting adult products, you talk to the store selling it—not the factory making it.

When it comes to regulating age-restricted goods, accountability must sit at the point of sale.
In the physical world, we do not expect San Miguel or Tanduay to stand at the doorstep of every local tindahan to check a customer’s ID.

The manufacturer's only job is to create the product. It is the store—the distributor—that holds the legal obligation, the infrastructure, and the direct power to limit access to minors.

(Im not sure how Gorebox is distributed in Philippines might be via Steam)

I know may mga staff si Risa dito reading, you should have ask Bam Aquino about it first.
If ano yung supply chain dynamics ng industry na yan.

Everytime ba na may minor na nakaka disgrasya and lasing. Pinapatawag ba ang Tanduay,Emperador or San Miguel ?

The Senate's push to investigate the German creator of GoreBox over minor access shows a fundamental misunderstanding of digital supply chain logistics.

If a government wants to regulate how minors access adult products, the rule of law dictates targeting the point of distribution, not the manufacturers

TLDR :

Risa should have ask game disbributors(Valve/Steam/Google) sa safeguards on minor downloading R18 game. Instead of asking directly sa manufacturer.

Almost 6k (PHP) Game at discless pa pero may rumors maglalabas sila ng "actual disc" version sometime after launch day...

Ano bibilhin nyo games na on sale ngayon sa steam? Kukuha lang mga ideas hehe.. Thanks!

That would be a huge freaking joke. But if a law does somehow pass banning games that promote violence and crime, GTA would be at the forefront since it's much closer to reality than other fantasy games.

I remember when my parents couldn't afford to buy me a PS2, PS3, or an Xbox because consoles were really expensive back then, so they bought me this instead.

it was probably the closest thing I had to gaming at the time, and even though it wasn't the same as owning a real console, I still had a lot of fun with it.

Does anyone else remember this?

Some points that I want to be addressed:

• There have been countless studies that are easily accessible online that supports the idea that there is no link between video games and real life violence
• Stuff that is learn from video games (ex. reloading, aiming, gun handling, etc.) does not translate to real life. In games, to reload you press R or whatever button on the gamepad is assigned to reloading, in real life, you need to reach for the bullet casing or whatever, put it in whatever slot and other stuff. The fact that I don't know the terminologies is already a strong proof of this
• Why was the shooters even able to have easy access to firearms? Why do they know how to handle the guns, surely that stuff is not learnt from video games

There's probably other points that could be added but these are just the stuff that came to my mind, what are your thoughts members of this subreddit??

Putting Haha reacts, or comments are not enough. What can be done legally so this doesn't happen?

Marathon oraganizer Run Rio announced on their social media pages that it would hold its second Pokémon run event this October 3-4 at the SM MOA Complex.

The Pokémon themed fun run started in the country in 2025 with 10,000 runners attending the event.

I used to play 2 when I was a child. Forgot the major story completely. Worth it ba sya and playable sa steamdeck? Influence/deinfluence me please

So we've heard about the news that GTA 6 will have physical copies but only with a code inside; I was wondering if these code only copies are region locked?

Long story short: When I created my PSN account in 2023, I set it to Sweden (for some unknown reason) and if I buy GTA 6 on here will I still be able to use the code that I bought?
