Our Team
Any publication is only as good as the people who contribute, fortunately for us we're backed by a very talented and hard working team, one of the best in the industry.
Executive Team
 |
Shawn Snider, Executive Editor
Shawn brings nearly a decade of industry experience to the publication. He is an expert at late night update marathons and coding sessions, a pizza connoisseur, and likes to think he's good at Company of Heroes (when in fact he's truly terrible). |

Rick Poulin, Associate Editor / News Editor
Rick has learned a lot from games over the years, and most of that time involved PC real-time strategies. The likes of Warcraft 2 and Starcraft laid the groundwork for basic financial management early in high school, followed by a lesson in Command and Conquer politics combined with a very long stretch learning team dynamics and project management from the Age of Empires series. Intersperse a racing game or two for drivers' ed and you've got a nearly complete picture. Remember kids, red lights are optional, and you get bonus points for driving on the sidewalk. |

Andrew Sztein, Associate Editor
Andrew has been gaming since he was six years old, in an attempt to learn AI patterns such that he is prepared to fight back when the robots rise up against humanity in a bloody, albeit very cool coup. Thanks to gaming, he is also prepared and looking forward to a possible zombie apocalypse.

Alex Coulter
Alex's tale of video games is a tragic one. As a young boy, while all his friends were playing Super Mario Bros., he thought he was having fun as well. Little did he know, he was playing "Mario's Time Machine". After many years of intensive hypno-game therapy, Alex has finally been able to live a normal life. Now, he spends his days reviewing video games, so no child has to live through the sick, sadistic, and educational games that he had to endure. |

Daniel Acaba
Gaming for the past twenty years Daniel has put in plenty of time into video games. Time enough for them to become a huge part of his life although one has to wonder what else he could have been accomplished with all that time if he wasn't gaming it away. But he prefers not to think of such trivial details and enjoy the games as they come. |

Isabel Jarvo
Isabel, a genetic cross between a Vulcan and an assimilated Borg feline, enjoys long nights playing shooters, romantic walks through Rapture and kicking her boyfriend's ass at Mario Kart and Dr. Mario. She swears she's female, though most of the male gamer population is convinced she's bluffing |

Kristine Greaves
While Kristine may be new to reviewing, she's definitely not to gaming. Starting with an Atari at the tender age of three, Kristine has been an avid gamer her whole life. With a lack of consoles plaguing her home, she has upped her PC gaming and enjoys MMOs and shocking other gamers with her lack of a Y chromosome. |
