What is “GameCrashers?”

GameCrashers is the product of a simple thought: not feeling ashamed for loving video games more than anyone else.  We’re here because the video game industry is a crazy place.  Some one has to decipher the lunacy that gets posted on the inter-webs every day.  Get ready for honest opinions, comedic commentaries, occasionally competent reviews, and partially inebriated podcast hosts.  We’re not you’re usual video game website.  We’re gamecrashers and we’re okay with that.

Who is “GameCrashers?”

Rob James

GameCrashers’ overlord and general head pooh-bah, Rob has been a video gamer since the “not-so-heady” days of Battle Chess and Wolfenstein.  These days, when he’s not working as a video editor, television producer, and writer, he has made it his goal to immerse himself in as much of the video game culture as possible.  When he’s not playing video games he spends a good portion of his time with his photography, and living it up in NYC.  GameCrashers is the product of a simple thought: not feeling ashamed for loving video games more than anyone else.

David Orosz

Born and raised in Long Island, New York, Boris presently lives with his beautiful wife in Los Angeles where he is pursuing a life of game programming/design and crime fighting. Currently he works for Disney Interactive Studios on many secret endeavors that he cannot tell you about, along with an assortment of personal prospective projects he also cannot tell you about. In his free time he’s stuck doing podcasts for no money with Rob. He is a lucky, lucky man.

Sean Marks

Sean was born into poverty in 1982. It all blurs together until about 2006 when he met Rob (Ed: and beer was had by all). His lovely girlfriend often refers to him as a “stone cold fox”, most likely due to the amount of hair covering his body. He holds a lucrative position in the entertainment industry, which this blog will eventually cost him. He joined Gamecrashers under the guise of fame and fortune and has received nothing but a sore anus thus far. He is very happy none of his fellow Gamecrashers are fat.

Brian Hertler

Due to the unspeakable nature of his crimes, Brian was recently exiled to Atlanta, where he’s now studying games as part of the Digital Media program at Georgia Tech.  GameCrashers turns to him for opinions on previous-gen and independent games, mainly because he’s too lazy/cheap to upgrade his hardware.  He toils under the delusion that he’ll eventually become a world-famous indie game designer millionaire, and everyone else is too polite to tell him otherwise.

Jason Perini

Jason Perini is the resident PC gaming snob.  He hasn’t owned a console since the SNES (other than a freely aquired, quickly-dying XBox 1 that functioned solely as a Soul Calibur II machine).  He loves first person shooters, PC RPGs, and games where you build space ships that shoot other spaceships.  He lives in New York City and works as a computer progammer for The Man.  He is a regular on the Gamecrashers Podcast because he loves to listen to the melodious sound of his own voice.
