The Eurogamer Staff

Tom Bramwell

Editor At Large, Eurogamer.net

Tom joined Eurogamer in 2000 and became Editor in January 2008. Tom is responsible for editorial, so you really can blame him for everything, even if he didn't actually do it. Cool, no?

Ellie Gibson

Deputy Editor, Eurogamer.net

Ellie previously edited our sister site, GamesIndustry.biz, but found the dress code restrictive and became our Deputy Editor in January 2008. She has a suitcase full of wigs.

• Username: Ellie

Oli Welsh

Reviews Editor, Eurogamer.net

Oli joined Eurogamer in 2008 as MMO Editor. In 2010 he became reviews editor, taking responsibility for all the site's reviews, although he continues to look after the MMO section and punch rats in the name of science. He is known as The European because he went to Calais once.

Wesley Yin-Poole

News Editor, Eurogamer.net

Wes lives for news. He eats news, sleeps news and writes news. On his days off he chases news. He's having a third arm surgically attached so he can be permanently on the phone and he supports Chelsea FC, which didn't come up in his interview...

Rob Purchese

Senior Staff Writer, Eurogamer.net

Rob recently ascended to Senior Staff Writer having originally joined the company to do admin work. His meteoric rise has been noted and he will die under suspicious circumstances in due course.

Fred Dutton

US News Editor, Eurogamer.net

Yeehaw! Washington-based Fred joined Eurogamer in 2010 to help us keep our growing US audience updated throughout their daytime hours, and so we would have someone to talk to on Skype.

Richard Leadbetter

Technology editor, Eurogamer.net

Rich is known as The Blacksmith of the Future round these parts. He's spent 20 years writing about games, mainly for magazines the youngsters of today haven't even heard of. Today he runs high definition video specialist firm Digital Foundry Ltd., in between writing for Eurogamer about things too technical for the rest of us to understand and using words like "hypervisor" in a serious context.

• Username: Grandmaster

Tom Phillips

Website & Video Administrator, Eurogamer.net

Tom grew up somewhere in the top right of England, but when we offered him the chance to make pictures and videos and put them on the internet and stuff he immediately fled south to join us. Suspicious beard.

John Bedford

Content Editor, Eurogamer Network Ltd.

John joined Eurogamer in April 2011 to work on our syndicated content packages and to write about MMOs, which seemed like a sensible step for a recovering WOW addict. Oh, working from home today, are we? Working from Azeroth, more like.

• Username: Bedders

Johnny Minkley

Editor, Eurogamer TV

Johnny's CV includes a spell in charge of the other industry trade organ, MCV, and he continues to contribute to Radio 1's games coverage on the Jo Wiley Show.

• Username: JohnnyM

James Hills

Video Editor, Eurogamer TV

James is in charge of making the pictures go with sounds and things like that on Eurogamer TV. He also holds the camera, moans about things and dislikes cheese with pathological intensity.

• Username: Escher

Mark Kennedy

Lead Developer

Mark's been here through several iterations of the website and wrote most of the code that makes it buzz and whirr. He also fights off Internet terrorists when they try and take us down like in Die Hard 4.

• Username: sharpkiddie

Craig Munro

Senior Developer

Craig does the same sort of thing as Mark, but is more handsome. He also emails us occasionally trying to convince us to give blood, which is very noble, although his method of collecting it is a bit suspicious.

• Username: craigy

Chris Ward

Senior Developer

Chris is responsible for things like the amazing Eurogamer TV technology, and boasts an encyclopaedic knowledge of film and TV. Now that we've moved offices he doesn't have to drive us home at the end of the day.

• Username: fatchris

Martin Taylor

Designer

Martin is currently in his second spell at Eurogamer, designing our websites and performing other graphical duties when the need arises. Also, his desk is piled high with quirky Japanese things, which is useful for distracting visitors when we can't be bothered to talk to them.

• Username: mouse

Simon Downes

Developer

Simon eats. A lot. No, seriously, really a lot. He also claims to work on top secret projects which he can't talk to the rest of us about because we don't have the right level of security clearance. But we all know he spends most of his time typing "cheeseburger" into Google image search.

• Username: jungle_ninja

Geoff Wright

Systems Manager

If Mark fights off Internet terrorists, Geoff is the one who puts in the final boot. He ensures our sites don't fall off the Internet. He only uses computers via terminal, and refuses to acknowledge GUIs exist.

Josh Heaton

Designer

Josh creates many of the beautiful advertising takeovers you see on the site wrapped around the rubbish content no one cares about. He's also rubbish at FIFA.

Tom Champion

Expo community manager, podcast host, office manager, hero

Tom, or 'Tom C' as he's affectionately but unimaginatively known, joined Eurogamer in May 2009 to help with the Expo. He was so good at peeling Blu-Tack off the walls that we let him stay. He's now the host of the Eurogamer.net podcast and responsible for everything no one else wants to do.

• Username: Venatio

David Lilley

Business development manager

Like Rich, David has been in the games industry for two decades now. Come to think of it we've never seen them in the same room. Anyway, David is responsible for the events, research and content licensing side of the Eurogamer business, and making sure we peel all the Blu-Tack off the walls properly at the end of the Expo.

• Username: Ginjau

Dan Robinson

Sales Director, Eurogamer.net

Dan joined Eurogamer in 2006 and is responsible for the network's advertising, without which none of us would be here. Not that you can see us under that f***ing overlay.

• Username: Spydez

Matt Styles

Consumer sales, Eurogamer.net

Clean-living Matt also sells advertising space across the EG network, and I really can't think of anything else to type, even though he's lovely. He's wearing a shirt that says "Monday". Topical.

• Username: MrMcStyles

Martin Lyford

Lifestyle sales, Eurogamer.net

Martin phones people up and asks them to advertise on Eurogamer.net. When he's not doing that he entertains us on staff days out by cycling while smoking and crashing into colleagues.

Dean Smith

Consumer sales, Eurogamer.net

Dean joined Eurogamer in 2010 and was immediately renamed "One Man Stag Party" by editor Bramwell thanks to his raucous support during lunchtime FIFA matches and his geeeeezaaaaar accent. Currently has his hood up indoors. OMSP.

Andy Wingrave

Ad Trafficker, Eurogamer.net

Andy "Wingo" Wingrave joined Eurogamer in 2010 and is responsible for making sure all the lovely advertisements that pay for your kids' education go up on the site without exploding the internet. He hears what you are saying but aaaaaaah.

• Username: MarginWalker

Rupert Loman

Managing Director

Rupert is the boss and co-founder of Eurogamer Network, and is responsible for the day-to-day running of the company and making long-term plans for our expansion, such as putting hose-pipes in our mouths and turning the tap on really quickly.
