About Christopher Condry

Chris Condry is a devout acolyte of the church of pop culture and always has been. After formal training as a science writer at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and San Francisco State University, Chris found a way to ply those skills on the movies, TV, comics, and games he loves. Now, with over three years of experience writing short-form and long-form analyses about a wide array of media, and with a number of citations across the web, Chris can confidently say he’s achieved some level of authority. He’s a lover of all genres of video games, but most of his favorites are action RPGs like Mass Effect, Fallout, and Horizon. Also, don’t get him started on why the original Conker’s Bad Fur Day is the most underrated game of all time because he’ll never stop. The Best War Games has been there for Chris many times, usually when he forgets where to find all his favorite weapons in RPGs, and he’s thrilled to help others with the same.

Proudest Gaming Achievement

Scoring a Domination Victory in Civilization 5 on Diety difficulty. It only took about 100 hours to defeat Greece and then it was off to the races.

Favorite Games

I once played Paper Mario only for an entire school semester on a dare. If that's not love, what is?

Favorite Games

Half of the time it's narrative-driven, cinematic sagas like God of War and Hellblade. The other half of the time it's cute, relaxing RPGs like Paper Mario, Cult of the Lamb, and Coral Island.
