Brendan Keogh and fellow Australian critic Dan Golding have founded Press Select, a new independent publishing label focusing on games criticism and analysis.
“It’s been really exciting to see the changes that video-game criticism has seen over the last few years,” Golding said. “These are changes that have gone hand in hand with the medium itself, and the kinds of conversations people now want to have about video games. With Press Select, we’re really hoping to augment the ways that people talk and think about video games.”
The duo’s articles have appeared in publications such as Edge, Hyper, Ars Technica, Polygon, The New Statesman, ABC Arts, The Guardian, Hyper and Crikey. They also plan to feature work from prominent critics like Kotaku’s Patricia Hernandez, Brainy Gamer’s Michael Abbott, independent critic Robert Yang, Edge Magazine’s Jason Killingsworth and game critic Jenn Frank.
The first book from the label is scheduled for release in early 2014.
