Filipino characters in Video Games that you might never heard! Must See!

I was playing video games ever since I was a child but, there are other things that I didn't know and it really surprises me to discover such things. As you have read in the title of this article, some of these characters are new to my ears. I didn't have any information about their existence until the time that I have seen and watched this video below. Now, here is an in depth preview of who are these persons and what game are they into.

SANTOS - he is featured in the game Def Jam Fight for NY and Def Jam Fight For NY: The Takeover. He immigrated to the United States to pursue his kickboxing career, but in one of the tournaments, he almost killed his weak opponent. Due to this, he was kicked out of the professional league and is now a circuit fighter where he earns his living. He trains in the Dragon House in Chinatown. His ultimate move is Filipino Pride.

PHAM LUIS and JOSE ESTRADA - The two characters appeared in the Playstation mech RPG Front Mission 3, made by Square. Possibly the character with the most unfortunate background, Jose quit obeying orders after mistakenly killing his wife during a mission and was convicted for insubordination. Swearing never to take up arms again, he was forced to pilot a Wanzer one last time during the attack on OCU Taal Base (built on the site of the real-life Taal Volcano, which is presumably extinct by 2112). Jose can be recruited in Emma's story if the player chooses the option of climbing the mountain. He will join the unit after the escape from Taal Base. However, he will be an enemy character if the player chooses to enter the mountain at ground level. He is also an enemy character in Alisa's story. It should be noted that Jose and Li cannot be recruited together. (Note: Jose's name is a mistranslation of the original found in the Japanese version. According to a Japanese-language strategy guide, the Front Mission 3 Saisoku Kouryakubon, 'Astrada' is actually Estrada.) While on the other hand, Pham is spoiled, but kind of likeable daughter of one of the richest families of the Philippines, Pham joined to the PLF (Philippines Liberation Front), an organization sworn to separate the country from the OCU. Although her character is undesirable at the beginning, she gradually becomes more serious and responsible and decides to go with Kazuki's team after the incident at Taal Base ends. She gets into fights with Ryogo occasionally. She is only available in Alisa's story but can be seen as an enemy character in Emma's story if the players don't destroy the Cadenza in Stanley Mountains. Her character is reminiscent of Shoryu Asuka Langley from Evangelion, for both personality and appearance. Pham is mentioned in Emma's story as getting married to a member of OCU Singapore's royal family (since Singapore is not ruled by a monarchy, it is presumed that the 'royal family' meant the family of the prime minister or president).

TALIM - Talim is a character in the Soul series of fighting games, making her first appearance in the series' third installment, Soulcalibur II. She has since returned for Soulcalibur III, Soulcalibur IV, and for Soulcalibur: Broken Destiny. Talim is nicknamed The Last Priestess of the Winds, and true to that nickname, has the power to sway the wind and relies on earth's nature to guide her in her adventures, and most importantly in battle. She fights with dual Elbow Blades, and as said earlier, uses her advantage of wind control to give her an unpredictable edge during combat — being able to hop around and over the opponent at any moment. This unique tactic, and Talim's soft and innocent personality, have lead to her becoming a major fan favorite, thus receiving much praise from the Soulcalibur community. What lies in her soul is Purity.

RANDY BOY JUNIOR - Randy Boy Jr. is the former OPBF Interim Featherweight Champion. He holds a victory over the Philippine Featherweight Champion and fellow countryman, Malcolm Gedo. He is the son of the boxer that caused Miyata Ichiro's father's to retire from boxing, and coincidentally, uses an identical fighting style called switch hitting. This is the primary reason Miyata decided to break off his promised match with Ippo and challenge Randy instead. Randy is aiming to defeat Ricardo Martinez to become World Champion. It is revealed before his fight with Ichiro Miyata that his father died after his world title bout. He suspects it was because he sustained brain damage after the fight with Miyata's father. Randy was beaten by Miyata after what was undoubtedly Miyata's most intense fight up until that point. This angered his manager, Mr. Sakaguchi, into nullifying their contract. Without even paying attention to his manager, Randy accepted the outcome of his fate against Miyata and then decided together with his team to go home back to the Philippines
