Jay has loved games since he was in Kindergarten, and he never ceases to be passionate about them. Jay thinks the current generation of systems represent a renaissance in gaming, and that role playing games are in serious decline. When he's not grinding out levels in Call of Duty 4, writing articles for Talking About Games, or playing the guitar in Rock Band, he discusses existential philosophy with chimpanzees.

Ian currently attends Full Sail in Orlando, Fl., where he is taking Game Development.
