Portfolio
I have spent various portions of the last 20+ years contributing freelance articles to leading gaming sites. Here is my portfolio listing the bulk of the work I produced for those outlets, excluding scattered news articles (mostly on sites that have long since disappeared). If you would like to hire me to write about games for your outlet, please click to contact me.
Game Reviews
I maintain HonestGamers, a site that presently contains more than 900 of my video game reviews. You can find a list of those here. I also wrote for Hardcore Gamer Magazine during its entire print run. And finally, I have contributed to a variety of sites as a freelance critic. Below is a list of those freelance reviews, divided by outlet. Links have been removed in cases where reviews are no longer available for online viewing.

* Most IGN guides listed above were published in a previous version of the site's CMS, and were automatically ported over to a wiki system months or years after the fact. Credit to the original authors was lost in the move, but that doesn't change the fact I wrote the bulk--or in most cases, all--of the content featured.
** Polygon, PC Invasion, and GamesHorizon guides are often published as a series of articles or features. I am linking representative articles from such guides, rather than listing each individual article.
