Cleveland native Tim Spaeth grew up in a happy household – a household with a father whose major client happened to be an Atari games distributor. This led directly to Tim's first nickname: "The kid who got Atari games before anyone else." Indeed, he knew Pac-Man and E.T. were colossal bombs weeks before the rest of the world, and the resulting celebrity brought him great pleasure.
Through the years every aspect of Tim's life has been touched by gaming. He mastered typing thanks to Space Quest, honed his poker skills on The Sierra Network, and learned to hate after a particularly traumatic game of Tecmo Super Bowl.
Today, Tim lives in Chicago with his three kids and strives to find that perfect balance between family, career, and Warcraft. He enjoys broadcasting, martial arts, rock and roll, growing and shaving his beard, singing show tunes to the homeless, and losing at Mario Kart to his lovely, talented, and amazing girlfriend.
In late 2008, Tim became the producer and host of the GameCritics.com Podcast, and he's thrilled to be bringing GameCritics' unique editorial voice to a brand new medium.

Nice back and forth guys regarding Left 4 Dead. If only Gene were there to actually pick up that chicken foot (Prison Break reference) and argue with Dan on the game. BTW, I have played some of Left 4 Dead, but not in the online multiplayer modes. I played co-op and it was great fun for a while, so I have to figure that the real fun begins playing with friends or strangers online. Or maybe the game is like most (360) games. It gets caught up in a swell of hype and attention from players and journalists at release… Read more »
