About George McComas

George McComas is an author for Screen Rant's Gaming section who likes to focus on RPGs and horror games. He has an MLitt degree in Creative Writing and loves to cook. He lives in a little Glasgow flat with his fiance and hopes to one day publish a novel and own a cat, in no particular order. 

Industry Focus

George writes mainly about RPGs, everything FromSoftware and any weird indie title that the algorithmic winds will see fit to sweep his way. Horror titles are another favourite, as well as anything story-focused and slow-paced. A staunch defender of any and all walking simulators. 

Favorite Media

George loves retro PC games, and not just because they were the only thing that ran on the crumby old laptop he owned as a teenager. His favourite games include Thief II, System Shock II, and Silent Hill II. All the 2s. He's also a huge fan of Disco Elysium, the Max Payne series, and Sekiro.
