About Mark Hospodar
Mark Hospodar has been an avid gamer ever since he fired up the original Medal of Honor on his PS1. A history teacher by training, Mark has branched out into the fields of fiction and non-fiction writing. He has co-authored several published works, including Future Imperfect and Tales from the Grimacing Goblin. However, his love of gaming has never dissipated over the years. A good, old-fashioned RTS title will always bring him back into the fold. His other interests include horror movies, toy soldier collecting, and anything Batman-related.
Favorite Games
My all-time favorites consist of Age of Empires 2, Crusader Kings 3, the Elder Scrolls series, BioShock, the Total War series, and Batman: Arkham Asylum. With a background in history, I love games with immersive historical settings like Kingdom Come: Deliverance or complex gameplay mechanics like the Gary Grigsby series.
Favorite Console
The PS1 still brings back fond memories for me. Even now, I'll still periodically revisit games like WWF Warzone, Medal of Honor: Underground, and the Army Men series. PC is also where I played the majority of my favorite strategy games, chief among them Age of Empires 2 and Sid Meier's Gettysburg.
