Trevor Rivers/Assistant Producer, GameSpot Live
"I've always thought that most people would embrace gaming if they'd just give it a chance. Call me a gaming hippy, I suppose."
Trey Walker/Platform Editor
"For these games I suggest a radical course of action: massively multiplayer mergers."
Andrew Park/Platform Editor
"One game engine that every developer used. And only one game engine."
Giancarlo Varanini/Platform Editor
"There are still a few notable SNES games missing from the Game Boy Advance library, but then again, maybe they should stay on the SNES."
Greg Kasavin/Executive Editor
"Something dawned on me recently--I've started looking forward to patches."
Jeff Gerstmann/Platform Editor
"This whole MMORPG thing is starting to leak off of the PC and get all over the consoles, where it simply doesn't belong."
Sam Parker/Hardware Editor
"I love to hear about promising new technologies, but I'm too skeptical to plunk down $300 or more for something that doesn't work right now."
Justin Calvert/Deputy Editor, GameSpot UK
"I have a definite penchant for games that allow me to play as a character that resembles the figure I see in the mirror every morning."
Ricardo Torres/Platform Editor
"There's one little thing I'd like to see added to the compilation before it hits the US--namely, Sonic CD."
Tim Tracy/Associate Producer, GameSpot Live
"Microsoft and Sony are about ready to go headfirst into the broadband gaming market, and I'm really not sure how I feel about the whole deal at this point."
Miguel Lopez/Platform Editor
"It's been rad and intense doing this for you guys these past two years."
Joe Fielder/Site Director
"Have you ever seen an episode of a TV series where a cast member takes a few moments to address the audience to say thanks and farewell to everyone he's worked with?"
