GI Show 101: How To Be A Game Journalist
Veteran game editor Dan Amrich has written a book that tells you how to break into game journalism. We interviewed Amrich about his new book, Critical Path: How to Review Videogames for a Living and also break down Asura's Wrath and Syndicate.
Reviewer Jeff Cork and Reiner stop by to talk about the gonzo action in Asura's Wrath in the first segment. Our interview with Dan Amrich is next, with host Matt Helgeson and Phil Kollar inquiring about his new tome and how it might help aspiring game writers break into the business. In the final segment, Bryan Vore and Kyle Hilliard drop in to discuss the surprising Syndicate, which features some unique sci-fi shooter action and great co-op.
If you're interested in purchasing Critical Path: How to Review Videogames for a Living, head over to the book's official site. The book is available in paperback, iBook, Kindle, and Nook formats. Amrich is currently employed as Activision's social media manager, you can read his work at oneofswords.com.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
