GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Thursday, Oct 8, 2009

After years of trying to make it as a video game journalist I have taken a huge step towards my goal.

For the first time, I have had a review published on GameSpot.

It's for XBLA title "Ion Assault" and you can read it here.

How did you do that if you're not apart of GS staff? Can anyone do that?!! Congratulations though! I am sure your parents would be very proud of you! I certainly am!

It's a freelance review, meaning that it's a one off. I'm not on the staff or anything like that. I managed to prove myself as a writer through work that I've had published on a smaller website, www.hookedgamers.com
