Ozzie 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. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, 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. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?

        A bunch of us are likely getting together for a tournament once it's out of Early Access on Steam. Deathlove?

      Although the PS3 and Xbox 360 did have Diablo III releases previously, they are getting the new Ultimate Evil Edition tomorrow as well.
