About us

Oh, hello there. Sorry, I thought I was alone.
Well, since you’re here, I might as well introduce myself.
I’m the Baron, pleased to meet you.

So, where did we start?

When my newspaper empire crumbled in 1947, I had an epiphany: the cathode-ray tube amusement device would be the future of entertainment.

Boy was I right!! And my ray lifestyle magazine: “Ray Times” was poised to ride the wave of technology.

Here we are today, with cathode-rays beaming into the eyes of gleeful children and emotionally stunted basement dwellers in households the world over. Granted, kids today call them “video game boys” and the discerning “gamer” is looking for reviews, opinions and intelligent commentary more than 44 pages of pin-up models, so I’ve hired some whippersnappers to re-brand and print the magazine on the world’s united network of telegram wires.
Anyway, I’ll let them take it from here on out, ta ta.

What we do


  • Reviews (probably, but not objective and maybe not particularly professional)
  • Opinions (steaming hot opinions, prepare to have your echo-chamber SHATTERED)
  • That’s about it
  • Oh, news?

Is that it?

Uh, yeah. Have fun!
