In the early 80s, glory could be won in the arcades by those intrepid youths capable of garnering high scores. One such teen, Julian 'Jaz' Rignall, turned that skillset into a career, first as a strategy tip writer for UK mags like Personal Computing and Computer and Video Games, before becoming a founding writer for ZZAP!64, Mean Machines, Mean Machines Sega, and Nintendo Magazine System. His career then brought him to America where he worked for Virgin on titles such as Toonstruck and Jungle Book before becoming a pioneer in online games journalism at IGN. Today, he helps game devs test their wares before they hit our screens at VGM.
Jaz has seen every aspect of the games biz, from how the games are made, to how they are presented to the public, to how the press informs us about them. His insights are truly invaluable!
