Nate has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. The Last of Us: Part II, Ghost of Tsushima, GTA 5 are a some of Nate’s most loved games. Generally speaking, he has become a big fan of platformers, open worlds, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. That’s one of the reasons he is so passionate about analyzing game storylines on his articles. Because, what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
