Join the Team!

The Game Fanatics (http://thegamefanatics.com) is a  community that caters to the needs of casual and hardcore gamers alike. We eat, sleep, and urinate games and maybe you do too. Our site covers the whole spectrum of gaming and entertainment, so if you have a passion for all this madness, and are expressive with words and pictures (especially of the cute furry kitten variety), then here’s your calling. We are primarily looking for game reviewers, writers, and podcast as well as video editing help.

To keep things simple, here are a few of the things we’re looking for in people we want to join our super awesome fun time happy team:

  • Love video games and be knowledgeable of the industry. Duh.
  • Be able to contribute at least once per week. If you can’t find the time each week to write up something, then the readers will never get to know you and everybody will be sad.
  • Have some sample writing. We love writers who have already got work for us to read. If you have a personal blog this is even better.
  • Send us samples of articles on par with those you would expect to contribute to the site. When you send in your email saying how great you are, include at least two samples of your work; one being a news piece, one being a longer opinion piece. This lets us see how well your style gels with ours.
  • Have a personality, but don’t be annoying. It’s a fine balance.

We are a pretty laid back site, currently a team of two die-hard gamers looking to expand and branch out.  All current staff are volunteers, as we become established methods of payment will be up for discussion. We are looking for anyone who wants to get started in the field of gaming journalism and gain some experience for a possible professional career, or simply a passionate gamer who enjoys writing and hopes his work will get more widespread.
