About Me

Gamersedge: When I was 4 years old I was fascinated with arcade machines. I would always run up to them and stand on my toes just to see what the big kids were playing. Eventually I was able to grab the controls and thought I was playing, until I realized that you needed to put quarters in to play. This was the moment of discovery for me, instead of just watching TV, you could control and interact with the avatars on screen...from then on the rest is history...1993 in computer class we ended up sneaking DOOM onto our school computer network. Although our newly 386's could just barely play the game in minimal screen size...countless hours during class and after hours was spent playing over the network. In 1995 I found my passion of Designing Games and Levels. I found great joy in creating a various DM levels, then bringing it to school. Knowing and creating the maps gave myself an edge and advantage over the other students, until I tipped the scales too much in my favor, until they fully discovered the map. Started out as a hobbyist designing levels for Doom, then when into the mod community doing Total conversion mods for Quake, Unreal.
