Today will be my last day as Chief Editor at GBAtemp.net :(

Today will be my last day as Chief Editor at GBAtemp.net :(

I've been a member of the forum since day 1, and part of GBAtemp from before it even became a website.
I started out as a mod/release poster and worked my way up to admin, then became Chief Editor.

As Chief Editor I dealt with over 150,000 press inquiries, aquired over 1000 game review codes, and built a team of amazing mag staff who I hope will continue to publish great content for the site.

I am sad to step down, but I'll be 40 years old next year and perspective and priorities change with age. I'm doing really well in my career IRL, and my children are at the ages where they need me more than ever.


For these reasons I've made the choice to move to Former Staff.


I wish everyone here all the best, and I hope to watch the site continue to grow. When we started this forum I had no idea it would become so popular, and still be going strong nearly 20 years later!


Thanks for everything and keep on rocking..

Peace out G-town!





P.S Don't ever let anyone tell you you can't do or be something. Always challenge if you believe you are right, but most importantly, follow your dreams - if you put the work in, you'll go far!

I'm happy to hear that all's going great on your side IRL but at the same time sad to see one of the best Mag Staff members leave as you've been a great help for the website and to me personally since I joined the staff. Thank you for all you've done and for checking my pile of reviews :D It's been a real pleasure working with you these 5 years! Hope we'll get to work together again; until then, I wish you the very best! :yay::yay::yay:

Best wishes T-hug! I remember when, back in the IRC days, we sometimes used to talk about releases and stuff (I was admin of GBArl at that time).

    @SylverReZ, then the chance of potentially me wanting to have a phat xbox 360 is -1%
