The Big Boss

Site Owner

Hey Folks! Well I am the owner of GamingBolt.com. It all started with a dream. A dream that I had envisioned in 2006 when I was in college. I always wanted to create a site of my own. But things really started to go underway in 2009. With GamingBolt.com, my aim is to develop a community of video gamers who will share their best experiences with us and of course among themselves. We are not competing against any of the bigger names instead we just want to make our presence felt in the video games industry. Thats our aim. So that everyone can “Get a Bolt of Gaming Now!”

Will Kenny

Co-Administrator

Hello, I am Will Kenny and am assisting The Boss as a co-administrator at GamingBolt. I’ve been gaming for about 4 years now, but that hasn’t stopped me from going back to enjoy the old classics; DOOM, Fallout 1+2, Diablo…I’ve done a bit of dabbling in the ol’ console gaming, but I’m really a PC gamer at heart. I’m a student at the moment, and Gaming Bolt is like a part time job for me right now. I get huge enjoyment from writing for GB and helping it to grow and flourish, and I hope it will grow in size to become one of the biggest games review sites on the net!

I’m not that old, so i wasn’t around at the time of the NES or other older systems, but i was a PC gamer since i was very young and i have only been playing with my Computer until i got into consoles with the Playstation 2.  Which brought me in to the great Playstation games, which are my favorite games by the way, such as God of War, Jak, Shadow of the Colossus, and many many more, and now i own a Playstation 3 which i enjoy very much, i can say my only serious gaming device is the PS3 because my PC can barley run games on Low settings, what a shame.

I’ve been an artist all my life, drawing is another one of my hobbies, i draw a lot in my free time and only a few months ago, i came to an idea that i can combine both of my hobbies, and become a Concept Artists for video games one day, thats my main dream for my job.

Being an Editor for a gaming website was one of the things i always wanted to be, i realized that i had great writing skills and knowledge, and then this new site called Gaming Bolt came up, wanting to recruit new editors, and now i am part of the staff of GB and I’m proud of it, because believe me, one day we will become big and tons of people will check our site daily, we have such a great community and staff that i am just proud to be part of.

So that’s about it, did i mention Pizza is my favorite food?

Hey there fellow Gamingbolt members, visitors, and soon to be members – I am Fred, otherwise known on GB & Xbox Live as Baldguy71. To answer the common questions I get, yes I am bald and yes I was born in 1971. I am often referred to as The Old Man, depending on who I’m playing with. I live in northern New York State with my wife and daughter, dog & ferret too. I’ve been a gamer since we had to draw tic-tac-toe boards in the sand. Then along came PONG !!!!

I’ve owned most consoles from the original Atari 2600 to the most recent Xbox 360. I mainly am into military first-person-shooters, Rock Band and Guitar Hero,  some sports games and the occasional racing game.

Aside from gaming, I also play drums in a rock band. Have been playing drums as well since I was a kid. I currently work as a sales representative for the local cable company.

I originally came to Gamingbolt when I received a invitation back a few months ago sometime in June asking me to check out the site. When I first came to the site and started looking around, I found that the site was pretty new and the community on the forums was a bit small and only a hand full of registered users. So I registered on the site and became a regular on the forums. Since then, the site’s creator contacted me as he noticed that I pick up games almost on a regular basis and offered me the chance to write a review for Call of Juarez. I chickened out. I didn’t think I had it in me to write a decent review and didn’t want to disappoint myself or the site’s creator. A while later, he extended the offer to me again, and I figured I’d give it a try. The review came out pretty good and now I am one of GamingBolt.com’s Xbox 360 editors.

Hopefully those reading this will stick around. There are more great games coming, I myself plan on giving you your ‘Baldguy” reviews, and maybe eventually some news. Otherwise, grab a seat, keep your hands and feet inside the car at all times and join me as we as a  gaming community grow and Gamingbolt is a house hold name !!!

My name is Jim and I have been gaming since the very first Nintendo and the glorious Mario and Duck Hunt game on the same cartridge.  I’m 25 and consider myself a pretty hardcore gamer.  Being a news editor within game media is not new to me but I really like GamingBolt.com and look forward to working with a great team to bring gamers the news they want and if they are anything like me, the news they need!  I play on all platforms when it comes to gaming but have to admit my dedication to consoles.  Hadouken.
