Experience includes high-profile launches like Street Fighter 6 and Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero. Chris is also an actor and singer who has performed in New York and regional theatres across the US.

Favorite Games

I've been a fighting game fanatic for as long as I can remember. Some of my favorite series include Street Fighter and Marvel Vs. Capcom. 

Favorite Anime

I grew up religiously watching Sailor Moon on Toonami (#iykyk). However, JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is one of my recent favorites (PS - My favorite Joestar is Joseph).

 

Favorite Console

The PS2 is by far my favorite console. In fact, I recently bought a used PS2 console from an antique store and I'm revisiting classics like Tekken Tag Tournament and lesser-known titles like Namco X Capcom.
