I wasn't always devoted to games. Once I quite liked music, was in a band and ran my own record label. Then I had my first run in with hardcore gamers and my life was changed.
At the age of 18 I landed a job as a QA tester for Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness and since then I have been rocking various game studios as a game designer. Writing about games as a critic is a welcome change of scene to being knee deep in rules systems and level reviews all day long.
Some people say they love their children or maybe their partner. They are liars. Compared to my love for gaming, game theory and gaming culture, their feelings are shallow and fleeting. My life (for better or worse) revolves around the most amazing form of art the world has and hopefully some of the things I have to say about it will either entertain you or make you think.
P.s. I am a recovering achievement whore. It has been a long hard road but I'm almost through it.
