Introducing the Gaming Archaeologist: Carlos

A brief look at LatinoGamer.com's new writer.


Hey Latino Gamer fans. My name is Carlos Jiménez and I'm the new addition to the group. Thanks to my pal Rafael, I have the chance to contribute to this excellent site by giving you "a blast from the past" of the classics that marked our childhood with video game awesomeness.

I think there is something unique about 16 bit video games that keeps people coming back from more, and in my articles, I'm going to pinpoint exactly what that is in each classic game.

I also write for Geek Legacy (geeklegacy.com), a website dedicated to all things "geek", with the penname "CJ". Check out my articles when you get the chance; I appreciate feedback and welcome constructive criticism.
