Carlton is a video game journalist who grew up playing 16-bit consoles in the late 1990s, quickly developing a love for all things RPG and FPS. His favourite video game is Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped on the original PlayStation, which he’ll defend as having the very best 3D platforming in a game that doesn’t include the word “Mario”. In addition to Creative Bloq, you can find him writing words about games in places like Debug Magazine, WhyNow Gaming and more.
