About Garrett Stanczak

Garrett has been an avid gamer since the Game Boy Color was considered the hottest handheld on the market. He's watched video games evolve into one of the best storytelling mediums of the 21st century, and he loves writing about the epic worlds of gaming and the fascinating characters who inhabit them. If he's not playing action games, RPGs, or Nintendo games, it's a safe bet he's thinking about them. His other obsessions include superheroes, kaiju, sci-fi, and fantasy.
