About Anthony Taormina
Anthony Taormina has been a member of Game Rant for close to 15 years. He coordinates content for all facets of the site, as well as managing its social media, PR, and business relationships. An owner of every console since Atari, Anthony is willing to try any video game, good or bad, but prefers the ones that involve a deep and engaging story. Anthony is a sucker for any game that has players wielding a fabled sword, but can still appreciate everything from a solid sports title to a game with a deep multiplayer experience. By eventually combining his love of video games with his skills in film, Anthony hopes to make Game Rant a fun place to explore all facets of pop culture.
