About Robbie Mitchell

Robbie has been an avid gamer for well over 20 years. During that time, he's watched countless franchises rise and fall.
He's a big RPG fan but dabbles in a little bit of everything. Writing about gaming the last few years has been a great way to fund his habit. 

Favorite Console

For as long as he can remember Robbie was a Playstation fan. His first gaming memories are on a PS1 and he's owned pretty much every Sony console (including the truly terrible Playstation TV).
Sadly for Sony, Robbie recently turned his back on consoles to focus on PC gaming. He hasn't looked back since.

Proudest Gaming Achievement

He's still with his non-gamer significant other even after playing through It Takes Two.

Favorite Games

Final Fantasy 7 - one of the greatest RPGs of all time.
The Last of Us - perhaps gaming's greatest story.
The Fallout Games - a guilty pleasure.
Dying Light - amazing parkour + zombie stomping
The Witcher 3 - Geralt is the G.O.A.T
