Senior Editor

Marcus Beaton

Marcus Beaton heads VGTopup's New York desk after a decade across digital media — two years on a finance newsletter, four on a consumer-tech site, and the rest on the games beat. He's the editor most likely to ask 'what does this actually cost the player' three times in one meeting, and his coverage stretches from PC and console reviews through mobile launches, live-streaming culture, and prepaid card economics. Bias toward breakdowns that respect a reader's time: what changed, what it costs, whether it's worth the click.
