Meet the OpenCritic Team

Founder of TechRaptor with a love of video games (B.S. in Game and Simulation Programming) and technology. Started TechRaptor to create a place where people could come for unbiased and high quality news, reviews, and editorials. Enjoys a wide range of games, from Shooters to RPGs and MMORPGs. Can talk for hours about the "Old Days" of World of Warcraft.

I've been writing about games and learning about how the industry works, talking to developers, and doing reviews since 2014. There's no genre I hate, but there are many that need standout games to catch my attention. If my scores seem higher than most, it's because I largely review games I figure will be worth letting our readers know about.

Mark is a Boston native now living in Portland, Oregon. Formerly the Features and Reviews Editor of TrueAchievements, he's been writing online since 2011 and continues to do so as a freelancer today for outlets like GamesRadar, EGM, and even OpenCritic news. Outside of games, he is an avid biker, a loud animal advocate, an HBO binge-watcher, and a lucky family man.

I have been playing video games for as long as I can remember. I am a huge fan of JRPGs, though I also enjoy fighters. I have been writing about video games for a few years now. If it has a great story, I am sure that I will dig it.
