Dave Halverson is an American video game journalist who has been the founder, publisher, and editor-in-chief of GameFan (where he wrote reviews as E. Storm, Skid and Takahara[1]), Gamers' Republic,[2] Play,[3] and currently the new versions of GameFan.[4] Halverson is regarded as a well-known but a controversial and polarizing figure in video game journalism regarding his personality, actions and statements,[1][2][5][6][7][8][9] such as his aggressive criticism of the poor reception of Golden Axe: Beast Rider by many other outlets, and also initially giving the Xbox 360 version of Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) a 9.5, which is regarded as one of the worst video games of all-time.[10][11][12] He also reviewed anime releases, including for Gamers' Republic.
