Mark your calendar to join us from 6pm - 9pm, Wednesday, October 31st at Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain. My Special "HALLOWEEN" Guest this week is "EVIL ED", a.k.a. Ed Greene, Founder of the #1 Video Game Review Site in the World!
When it comes to Halloween my Special Guest can't be someone who is considered "normal" by most peoples standards. So brace yourself! Dramatic, obnoxious, rebellious-these are just a few of the words that come to mind when describing this self-proclaimed, "God of Video Games". Looking more like a California surfer dude than what one might assume someone with the moniker of "EVIL ED", Ed Greene, Founder of the worlds most successful Video Game Review Site makes those suffering ADD (attention deficit disorder) seem rivotedly focused! "EVIL ED" is a celebrity of sorts. Known throughout the video game world, Ed Greene is the persona of what video games offer "Gamers". Gamers are obsessed with playing video games. They escape reality playing solo or organized into groups called "LANS" (Local Area Network). LAN parties are most often small locally organized groups of friends. Players form teams, teams form leagues, and leagues sometimes host massive LAN events, renting out warehouses for dozens or even hundreds of players. LAN parties are like raves for the antisocial and can go on for days! Ask "EVIL ED" why he is so devoted to video games and he'll tell you, "video games give a person the one thing they don't have in society-a free will. In life if you do something wrong you end up in jail or pennyless. In video games if you do something wrong you hit reset. Movies and Television can't do that-only in video games can you do that". "EVIL ED" understands the youth market because like Peter Pan he has refused to grow up! Ed knows what appeals to "his" group and will be airing his own television show next fall. "General audiences are what I'm shooting for. I'm trying to bridge the gap between gaming geeks and normal people", says EVIL.Video games is a $38 billion dollar a year business Vs. $8 billion for movies. EVI L's WWW.EVILED.COM receives 40 million impressions per month and features text-based video game reviews, industry news/gossip and video clips starring "EVIL ED" partying with famous game developers and flirting with models. EVIL says he was the first to combine games and girls.EVIL works with over 450 third party licenses that develop software and peripherals for designated platforms including Sony's Play Station, Microsoft's XBox, and Nintendo's Game Cube in both PC and Mac formats. Everyday is like Christmas for EVIL as every developer of video games in the world sends him free hardware and video games to review. "EVIL ED" promotes both local and worldwide product manufactures such Sketchers USAwhere EVIL is promoting their back-to-school shoe give-away and Emaxx Energy Drink which is facing off in direct competition to Red Bull. Featured in an in-depth write-up and pictured on the front cover of the March 22-28 edition of Phoenix New Times, it is with great pleasure that "EVIL ED" , a.k.a. Ed Greene, Founder of the #1 Video Game Site in the World, will be my Special Guest this week. Please plan on joining us to socialize and meet new friends!
