About Tiago Manuel

Tiago has a bachelor's degree in Political Science and nearly a decade's worth of experience reporting on video games, movies, deadly real-life cults, and TV shows.

Proudest Gaming Achievement

One day, my squadmates told me I had just killed one of the best Apex Legends players in the world. I won't reveal his name. That's not to protect his identity, but because I never went to check his name in case they were just lying to me.

Favorite Console

The PS1 and the fantastic memories I have from playing it are definitely to blame for me being here writing this right now.

Favorite TV Shows

My favorite TV shows of all time are probably Danger 5, Toast Of London, and Xavier: Renegade Angel, and yes, none of those titles were just made up.
