Calum Fraser

Founder of Alpha Beta Gamer and all round video game enthusiast, especially quirky indies. Aware that we're now in the golden days of video gaming. Hairier than any human should be. Favorite game of all time has to be Super Mario World, closely followed by Super Mario Bros. Can't name my favourite indie game because every few weeks another one comes along that blows me away. Got a soft spot for Braid and Limbo though because they were the first ones that really got me into indie gaming.
