Meet the New Community Manager: Joveth (aka jgonzo)
Hey everyone! The name is Joveth and I'm the latest addition to the Capcom Unity team, joining fellow community managers Snow and s-kill. Rather than remain a figure of mystery and intrigue and stay hidden in the shadows, I wanted to tell you all a little more about myself. My gaming history goes all the way back to Mattell's Intellivision, which then progressed to (in order): NES, SNES, N64, PS1, PS2, 360, Wii, and finally the PS3. Along the way, I also picked up the original game boy, GBA, Game Gear, and the DS (and at some point, Tiger Electronics' Quiz Wiz which I really wanted for my 12th birthday thanks in part to an endless barrage of television ads).
I actually had a long paragraph talking about the intricacies of my Capcom palette, but I figured it was best to cut to the chase. Favorite Capcom games and franchises: DuckTales, Little Nemo: The Dream Master, Ghosts 'n Goblins, Mega Man I and II, Street Fighter II, Resident Evil (series), Mega Man Legends, Power Stone, Devil May Cry (series), and Dead Rising. I've dabbled in others, but those stand out the most for me. I'm still making my way through franchises that I've never played before and I'll keep you all posted on anything new that I really dig.
Now I wasn't born fully formed, springing out of Mega Man's head and ready to work for Capcom. I actually got my start in the game industry working HR for video game developer Crystal Dynamics. Then I moved over to the marketing side and started working for Eidos where I was recently working on Batman: Arkham Asylum. I've also written and edited for a few blogs, mostly about comic books (one of my other passions, aside from video games).
Anyway, I'm sure you've all had more than your fill of jgonzo info so I'll leave it at that. If you have any more questions, feel free to shoot me a message! I'm looking forward to hearing more about you folks- the community-and all of your thoughts and ideas!
Oh, and before I forget, a special thanks to Mike Thompson for my comic book portrait.
