Tom Orry

Editor

Frequently referred to as the 'content machine', Tom is responsible for the fresh words that appear on the site every day - often involving the man-handling of PRs, editing 25 page reviews, and marathon gaming sessions (it's a hard life...). Despite being a walking video games database, Tom is constantly ridiculed by co-staff for being so crap at them.

Wesley Yin-Poole

Deputy Editor

When not masquerading around the World of Warcraft universe, or allegedly destroying other gamers at Street Fighter II, Wesley makes use of his strong journalistic background and spends a large proportion of his working day generating original news stories, hassling poor games PR folk on the phone, and writing features. As well as this, one of Wesley's weekly tasks is to get the editorial team to the pub every Friday afternoon, having convinced Adam it's an 'essential team building exercise'.

James Orry

News Editor

As news hound for VideoGamer.com, James spends most of his time on dodgy sites sniffing out all the top stories and gossip of the day, whilst uploading any new screenshots he finds. During times when Tom collapses from exceeding his content production yield, James immediately takes over and keeps the content conveyer belt moving.

Neon Kelly

Previews Editor

Although hired primarily because of his cool name, Neon spends most of his days playing pre-release software, occasionally doing a strange happy dance on his chair. When not attending press events or writing previews he can often be found playing awful games from years gone by or explaining to people that his name really is Neon. It really is.

Seb Ford

Video Producer

Seb possesses a vast array of talents (he makes a killer spag bol) and is responsible for the sexy in-house video productions that appear on the site every day, now in magnificent high-definition. He is also renowned for his legendary parties, in which apparently lots of people get naked. Frankly, until he invites the rest of the team to one we're going to assume he's bluffing and has expertly photoshopped the lewd photographic evidence on Facebook.

Coming Soon

Joe Rekedt-Nagy

Lead Developer

Unusually, when this particular job vacancy was open, rather than applying using traditional means, Joe simply teleported into our office using some sort of man-made mobile vortex, cleverly created using PHP. This alone was enough to convince us he was the man for the job, and he started the following Monday. Joe spends his time creating more subtle but equally mind-bending systems behind the scenes, helping to keep this delicious site running.

Laszlo Rekedt-Nagy

Developer

With Joe spending an increasing amount of time in the basement laboratory, pushing technologies far beyond their design limits purely for recreation, we needed someone to take care of Pro-G Media's newer developments. Luckily for us Joe had a twin brother, Laszlo, who is quite possibly the result of one of these experiments - half man, half coding machine. Living up to this, he silently taps away at his keyboard producing powerful systems that power our goliath backend.

Chris Thomas

Sales Manager

Chris joined us in late 2008 and took over some of Adam's more serious responsibilities, such as making sure the office bar is well stocked with a wide selection of chilled beer. His other responsibilities include the glorious adverts that you see across the site, which help us cover the cost of Seb's ambiguous food expenses. Due to the importance of Chris' role, on his first day he was provided with a more expensive office chair in addition to a limited edition SEGA pen, which the rest of the staff are reminded about on a daily basis.

Adam McCann

Operations Director

Pretty much doing everything that doesn't involve content, including site maintenance, creating fancy graphics, attending meetings, and co-ordinating advertising and marketing, many find that Adam is a little insane. At time of writing, best estimates have Adam resuming recreational activities and a social life in the year 2053.
