The Team
If you’re keen on JRPGs, RPGs or those interactive spread sheets otherwise known as “Wargames,” Matt’s your man. The weirder the game, the better, and you’ll generally find him happiest when playing those JRPGs that have sold ten copies around the world. Matt cares not what platform he plays these games on, as he has them all. Just don’t ask his opinion of a game before he’s had his ten morning coffees. He’s cranky then!
Contact Matt at matts@digitallydownloaded.net – please direct all editorial enquiries to him directly.

She has has developed a great love of life sims and FMV titles. For her, accessibility is one of the most important parts of any game (but she also really appreciates good UI).

A true optimist, Harvard manages to find something to enjoy about any genre of game. He enjoys JRPGs the most and while he’s pretty terrible at action or strategy games, he continues to play them anyway. He is constantly trying to recommend obscure titles to his gamer friends, even though most of them resent the many times he has let the team down.
