Key staff
Find the full PC Gamer staff list on our Meet the Team page.

When not steering the good ship PC Gamer, Tim spends his time complaining that all Priest mains in Hearthstone are degenerates and raiding in Destiny 2. He's almost certainly doing one of these right now. "On lunch."

Evan's a hardcore FPS enthusiast who joined PC Gamer in 2008. After an era spent publishing reviews, news, and cover features, he now oversees editorial operations for PC Gamer worldwide.

Phil leads PC Gamer's UK team, but still sometimes finds the time to write about his ongoing obsessions with Destiny 2, GTA Online, and Apex Legends. He's largely responsible for the Tub Geralt thing, but still isn't sorry.

Dave built his first gaming PC at the tender age of 16, and finally finished bug-fixing the Cyrix-based system a year later—when he dropped it out of the window. He's been breaking technology ever since, but at least he gets paid for it now.

Tyler leads PC Gamer's team in North America. He joined PCG well over a decade ago, and has been a reader for much longer. Someday he'll organize his box of old demo discs, wherever it is.
Editorial policies
PC Gamer has been publishing criticism and news about PC games and hardware for almost 30 years, and above all else we strive to be honest, accurate, and transparent. Our reviews policy and how we test hardware pages, as well as notes on affiliate links explain our approach to reviews and product recommendations in detail.
We're not infallible, and if we make a mistake, we'll acknowledge and correct it as soon as we can. If you spot an error or have a complaint, see the contact information above to get in touch.
Affiliate & Advertising disclosure
We are committed to helping you find the best products and services for your needs and connecting you with trustworthy retailers where you can purchase them at competitive prices. Within our editorial content, we often provide links to products and services on retailer sites for which we can receive compensation—called an affiliate fee—if you click on those links or make purchases through them. That affiliate fee is paid to us by the retailer and does not directly affect the price you pay for the product or service.
Our expert editorial teams are independent. This means the products and services they select to appear in our articles are chosen based on their unbiased, expert judgement and relevance to the readers' needs and article content. While our editors may be informed by commercial insights to understand the market, our goal is always to provide independent, objective, valuable and useful advice to our readers.
Our curated product widgets that you see in some of our articles are intended to help you find the best products and services, at competitive prices, at trusted retailers. Those widgets are powered by our own software, called Hawk, which displays the latest product and price information from thousands of retailers. We will always do our best to ensure that we display the most up-to-date information possible. On occasion, a retailer may have updated their prices, up or down, before the adverts displayed by Hawk are updated. Retailers may also add delivery or other costs to the purchase – please see the retailer's site for more information. The affiliate fees we receive help us to continue developing Hawk as well as helping to pay our teams and other website costs.
We also run advertising in various forms. Ads on our websites are designed in a way that makes them clearly identifiable as ads and distinguishable from our editorial articles.
From time to time, we also publish paid-for editorial content on the site. This content is labelled so you can see who has funded it and how it was created. We have a full guide to content funding on PC Gamer here. You can also see the full terms and conditions that apply to your use of our sites right here.

We abide by the Editors' Code of Practice and are committed to upholding the highest standards of journalism.
