Great Video Game Ideas Not Used
The Team
Andre is a life-long and passionate gamer who only wants to help improve the video game industry. With his article series, he intends to not only share his thoughts but to also to entertain and make people think. Great Video Game Ideas Not Used has become just as big a passion for him as sitting down and playing a worthwhile game.

A good portion of Andre's time has been spent trying to show off his creativity, whether it be writing, in music, or coming up with a video game or even TV show idea, his mind is always working. GVGINU was just one perfect outlet for the mass of energy and thoughts buried underneath.

Andre is also a family man and tries to balance out time well, not always being successful. But he hopes one day that his children will share his love of gaming and that he can properly educate them about the differing games and what they truly are.
