About Richard Warren
Rick Warren is a Senior Features Editor from the United States. He is a lifelong gamer and comics fan who loves writing about everything in nerd culture, and absolutely adores Trophy hunting on PSN. Rick has been working for Game Rant for over three years now and loves both writing and editing GR Originals, seeing them as a necessary avenue for unique and important takes on the video game industry. Whenever he's not working on content for the publication, Rick is either reading comics, watching superhero movies, or - unsurprisingly - collecting Trophies.
Proudest Gaming Achievement
Hitting Trophy level 999 on PSN and getting over 1,400 Platinum Trophies. Regularly hovering around the top 900 Trophy hunters worldwide and top 150 in the United States.
Favorite Console
PlayStation 4, with the PS2 close behind. PlayStation's exclusives make up a lot of my favorite games, and these two generations really shined in this regard.
Favorite Games
The Last of Us 2, The Witcher 3, Metal Gear Solid 3, God of War Ragnarok, and Mass Effect 2 for singleplayer.
For multiplayer, Overwatch, Call of Duty Zombies, Minecraft, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and Borderlands.
