Making the most out of being a gamer in Malaysia

Xerozia — Tue, 03 Jun 2014 21:26:26 +0800

Hi guys, I run a somewhat new review site called Explicitly Honest where we review games and whatnot. I've posted on here before about a contest we had.

Anyway, Im trying to write an article/guide on how to make the most out of being a gamer in Malaysia.

This Assumes you have a credit/debit card to make purchases with.

So far I have:
1. Taking advantage of US only digital deals and how to make a fake address (like Amazon, or GameFly)
2. Knowing how to take advantage of your platform. (Like PS+ and when/where to buy it) or PC gamers and sales.
3. A list of sale sites (e.g. cheapshark, humblebundle, findmeadeal)
4. Knowing what the bigger stores that deliver are in malaysia (i.e. GH or HeavyArm)

Those are only for software really.

Is there any advice I can try to look into.

Are there any proper ways to deliver gaming peripherals to Malaysia without the massive shipping fee? Is there a point?

Is there like a shop you always go to that always has the best?

Is there any online place you go to to find out more?

Is there a lelong shop you like?

ANYTHING to help us in Malaysia know how to navigate properly. I figured it would be helpful to everyone to have a list like this.

Thanks to those that give feedback.

Hey guys, I've started up a new website for game reviews and whatnot and I'm celebrating by giving away a Titanfall key in a raffle for my page. Im posting here since there seems to be so much Titanfall, plus, I love my PC more than my consoles.

Plus Titanfall.

My page: https://www.facebook.com/explicitlyhonest

The post: https://www.facebook.com/explicitlyhonest/p...?type=1&theater

Only 2 more days left.

My site is basically a review site I do in my free time with some friends. Content is kinda slow now, but if you're interested, you can follow us in many ways, but Facebook would be the best bet
Our writers are still learning, so some helpful criticism would be nice.

Thanks guys

*Edit: ALSO SORRY THERE'S ONLY 1 KEY. I AM A POOR STUDENT

Explicitly Honest - A gaming site

Sorry if I'm breaking any rules, but there doesn't seem anywhere else for me to post for this and there doesn't seem to be any rule saying not too...

I'm not trying to advertise any products since I have no ads or revenue, I'm just trying to red readers or interested people D: I figured it would be okay to post here since I'll also be doing PS3/PS4 reviews and maybe once I get my XB1... I posted this to the blogs section as well:

Hi guys, I made a site a few weeks back and I'm finding it hard to get it out there since most of my friends list aren't gamers.

The site is Explicitly Honest.

It's a site that focuses on reviewing things for gamers. This includes games, software, hardware etc.

We also try to focus on discounts for you guys collectively so you know what's going on and what's good atm.

This is our Facebook page where we will post updates and whatnot and link to articles.

All writers are English speakers living in Malaysia and Singapore and we are all students just doing this for fun. We're looking for people who are interested in the very least to like our page. Right now we are having a Titanfall contest (only one copy we can afford sorry D: we are poor students) and you can try entering that, the chances are fairly high for a raffle since not many people like the page atm

Thanks to those who are interested and thanks for the support
