An avid gamer since I first played Breakout in the Summer of ‘76, I’ve also developed a few titles ‘back in the day’ and was a prolific musician on the Amiga. I’ve had a PS3 since launch day in the UK and wanted to create a website that not only delivered balanced commentary, but that also made a positive impact.
PS3 Attitude is the result of that wish, and I hope you enjoy it.
I once nearly sold a car to Jez San just after Starglider came out, but that’s another story…
Brodiesan – Feature Writer
A life long gamer (and writer) with a passion for all things PlayStation and Sony in general. That said, not a fanboy zealot considering there are Microsoft and Nintendo gaming devices in my house too; they just don’t get used very often. Hailing from the “Forgotten Land”, also known as “Europe” and currently trying to juggle gaming, Japanese studies and the bane of all our lives; work. The great conundrum of my life; not that there are too many games to play but that there’s just never enough time to play them.
I’m also the writer on the site who has trouble knowing when to stop rambling in news posts. Like the above for example.

I have been an avid gamer since I learned how to hold a controller. My favorite games include Devil May Cry, Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Mega Man, Ratchet & Clank, Resident Evil; the list could probably go on forever. I am also a big movie and television junkie. Pretty much anything technological or entertainment-related will satisfy my curiosity.
When I’m not gaming or doing other fun activities, I’m probably studying for school at Georgia Tech in Atlanta. I’m a pretty busy guy. What else can I tell you? I’m 6′0” and enjoy long walks on the beach… Yeah, that’ll do.

I’m a geek and a gamer. Games are hugely important to me for stress relief. I work in a stressful job, and when I come home at night, all I want to do is relax and take things easy. Games help me to do that. I wouldn’t call myself a ‘hardcore’ gamer as such because I am not particularly great at them, but I do love playing them. From Warhawk to Buzz! Quiz TV, I’m generally game for anything except sports games – just not my bag!
The geek side of things comes more from my love of gadgets, and games fit squarely into that lovely niche! Anything that has limited use but fun or quirky design gets my vote. I can usually be found pouring over the interwebs, searching for every last morsel of information I can find about a game I’m most looking forward to – in recent months it’s been LittleBigPlanet!

I’ve been a gamer since I hassled my parents for a Nintendo Entertainment System and got an Atari clone instead. Mild mannered office manager by day, I enjoy my work and
find it very fulfilling and …who am I kidding!
I didn’t want to be an office manager. I don’t want to rabid on all day about performance reports and mission statements and budget meetings. I wanted to be…A LUMBERJACK! Umm…a PS3 blogger!
Writing about the latest games, playing the newest demos, reviewing the coolest games available, sharing my opinions with the entire blogosphere! With my best bloggers by my side, we’ll blog…blog…blog!
I’m a PS3 blogger and I’m OK. I sleep all night and I blog all day.

I guess you could say I started getting into gaming quite late; my first console was the original PlayStation! I love playing games but I’ll be the first to admit that I’m hardly the best gamer in the world. It is a hobby of mine that I spend a lot of time doing, and I find it the perfect way to relax on the sofa.
I’m quite a technology minded person, and I love my PS3, PSP, iPod Touch and of course my laptop. I guess you could say I love to know about things, and know all sorts of facts and information, which is why I fit in at a place like PS3 Attitude. In the future I hope to work in Business and Marketing.

I just love games. I can play and enjoy games from practically all genres. I particularly enjoy Puzzle and Fighting Games. Great music is an important aspect to a game for me, and I am absolutely enamored with the works from Akira Yamaoka and Nobuo Uematsu. I have actually seen both of them perform at the Play! video game symphony in Chicago before (and even got signatures!). I have shaken Uematsu-san’s hand and I have his autograph on many CDs and posters.
You may recognize my name from YouTube, especially regarding PixelJunk Monsters. Yeah, I did those guides! Feel free to have discussions with me regarding different strategies or maybe just about gaming in general. I’m always up for gaming, and I like to play games at a more ‘enjoyably competitive’ level than just purely competitive. I like to play good and still put on a show at the same time. Enjoy!

I’m more of a musician than a gamer, but the difference is only slight. I was brought up on platformers such as Ratchet and Clank as well as Jak and Daxter, and while that still holds, I now also dabble in immersive FPS games like Far Cry 2 and Killzone 2, not to mention loving the Uncharted series.
At the moment I study Composition and sell my music online, as well as manage Audiofictions; a Harry Potter fanfiction podcast. In the future I hope to be a well-known contemporary composer, gaming composer, or gaming journalist.

As a by-product of the 80’s, I was brought up loading games from floppy disks and cassettes (anyone under 20 should Google this; type in ‘frustration’ and hit search). Despite this, I persevered and am now the proud owner of 22 consoles spanning over 20 years of gaming history. I love most genres of games, with shooters such as Ikaruga being my favourite, but I have an all out dislike of football games. I am gadget obsessed and will happily forsake pointless things such as clothes or shoes for the latest slice of gadget pie!
When I’m not gaming I’m being a complete car/bike geek. You know the type of person who watches Top Gear on the BBC, then again on Dave, then again on Dave the next day? I invented that! I also used to train as a wrestler down in Kent but that’s another story…

Ever since I first played Sensible Soccer on the Amiga 600 using its meagre 7.09 MHz processor, I’ve been a committed and avid gamer. I’ve watched in amazement at how the industry has developed from its humble origins into the major international entertainment industry that it has become today.
I was nine when the PSOne hit Europe, and it was the first time I experienced the wonders of 3D graphics. I grew up as computer games were coming of age; I was losing my life to Final Fantasy VII and Metal Gear Solid. I felt blessed, like I was the chosen one!
When I’m not getting overly excited about my gaming destiny, I tend to be playing guitar, reading a book, watching football or a film.

I’ve been a gamer since I was nine years old when I got a PSone for Christmas in 1999. I was particularly fond of Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon, and although I enjoy a huge array of genres nowadays, platformers and action/adventure games still take precedent in my collection, including Uncharted and Ratchet & Clank. I’m also a big fan of the Guitar Hero and Rock Band games, as well as many racing games, first person shooters, and RPGs.
I’m currently studying English at University, but still find plenty of time (some might say too much!) to spend on the PS3. I’m a bit of a perfectionist, so when it comes to games I always aim for 100%.
So that’s our team; ready, willing and able to bring you the best PS3 content, daily.
