  • Matt Casomethingsina latest to jump the IGN ship

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

And to join Apple.

"Anybody who has read my work through the years will know that I’ve long been a huge Nintendo fan, but if there is one company that could entice me away from covering Mario and Zelda it’s the one owned by Steve Jobs. Beginning early May, I will join Apple as global editorial games manager, App Store. In a nutshell, I will be leading the charge for games on the App Store, so whether you browse through iTunes, iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad, the games content you see will be handpicked and organized by me and my team. I couldn’t be happier."

I used to love the site, they used to be on the ball all of the time, but I haven't been very satisfied with their coverage in the past few years (too heavily opinionated), so it has been a little while since I have been there. Peer Schneider, from the early days, was better than Matt in my opinion.
