GAMER BY BIRTH

From birth, he was the chosen one. He who would defy all preconceived notions of what a gamer could be. It was in his blood. It was destiny. It was........

​

Nah, none of that's true, but Justin has been an avid gamer since he could walk. His parents purchasing the original NES for him as a way to keep him distracted from the arrival of his newborn sister, gaming has been coursing through his veins since diapers. Even his humble begginnings, working at his local Gamestop, at the age of 16 was preparing him to lead a life of sore thumbs and Cheetos.

Growing up on the Emerald Coast, fumbling his way through school and life, he became a DJ for a wedding coordinator, eventually starting his own music company. Ever restless, the gaming world was always a short step away. Using Zelda's capture or the Lich King's reign of terror as an excuse to hole up in a room for hours on end, video games were always the escape his mind needed from life's shortcomings.

​Years of bridezilla's left Justin needing more from the cosmos. After years of denial from his true passion he finally realized that the gaming industry was his calling. Founding Early Access LLC. is his way of giving back to the gaming community, showcasing the industries talents, one long winded, Cheeto stained blog article at a time.

WHAT DOES INTEGRITY MEAN TO JUSTIN?

Justin, Founder

"To Be Or Not To Be ..... What was the Question?"

Integrity comes from integers. Or is it grity. Maybe it's grimy. Integral to our lives. That's it!

YARN-A-HOLIC

Marissa’s first exposure to yarn crafts was at the tender age of 8, when her Oma sat her down in her small apartment in Queen’s and showed her the wonders of slip knots and chain loops.  Unfortunately she lost interest in crocheting by her teenage years, being so thoroughly preoccupied by friends, shopping, and middle school, and any skill she’d gained went by the wayside.  

A decade later she was in a new city, short on friends and access to the internet, and decided to spring for a pair of knitting needles and a ball of gaudy acrylic yarn. A few YouTube videos snuck in during work hours later and she was on her way to knitting the ugliest scarf she’d made to date.  And yes, she was damn proud of it.

Now years later with a husband and kid in tow the knitting projects have expanded in all manner. Her projects range from the practical to the frivolous, crafted using yarn that’s either absurdly expensive or discovered at the bottom of the bargain bin. She tries to limit how often she visits Ravelry and r/knitting because, as every knitter knows, that’s nothing but a slippery slope to spending more money on beautiful yarn and designer patterns that will sit in queue for weeks, if not months. So instead she passes the time playing video games. And baking cookies. That is until she discovers her next project.  Anyone need a pair of socks?

HOW MUCH INTEGRITY DOES MARISSA HAVE?

Marissa, Editor

"Ugh, I'd rather be knitting"

Being the best employee here, I'm obviously full of more integrity than my co-workers

KNOWER OF ALL GOOD THINGS

In a world, where third-person narratives run rampant through bio sections of websites, one man dares to defy the odds... Me, Wes... I'm just a man, similar to my friend Justin, who was also given the keys to gaming by my parents to shut me up. Well it didn't work because it's all I ever talk about now.  So, I win.  Gaming is mostly my escape from the adventures/horrors of retail related jobs and the odd people that are packaged with them. 

I mainly enjoy playing first-person shooters, role-playing games, and pretty much any game that isn't afraid to change up the formula. I am also guilty of being bitten by the MMO bug, but I'm still searching for the perfect one. These days, I mostly just cycle through the many games made by Blizzard. Outside of those, I try to keep my gaming tastes diverse so that I can have enriched opinions, which I'll gladly feed to anyone willing to ingest it.

While I may be a seasoned gamer, writing is fairly new to me and I'll try my best to present myself in an honest way. You have my word that I will never sugarcoat anything I do not find favorable in a game....or anything really. Likewise, I will be more than happy to shower praise on things I do enjoy whilst my gaming adventures unfold. It is worth noting that my love for gaming is only trumped by my kiddo and wife (see above, pink cat ears, can't miss her). I would not be where I am today if not for these two majestic creatures.

WHERE WOULD SOMEONE FIND INTEGRITY WES?

Wes, Editor

"Good Embress, Dark Cheese"

I believe integrity comes from the gut. A ponchy, oppressive, sometimes upset gut.

HOW'S EARLY ACCESS IN THE FUTURE WES?

Why am I still working here, oh what has my life become? And why haven't I been able to find my razor?
