Jim Sterling (journalist)

Jim Sterling (born January 1, 1984) is an English video game journalist and blogger best known for his cutting wit and fashionable monocle. Jim Sterling currently serves as Reviews Editor at popular community gaming blog [http://www.destructoid.com Destructoid.com] and has also contributed to IGN UK as a freelance writer. He is a regular host of the European-based podcast, The Podcastle, and Destructoid's regular, Podtoid.

Sterling's style and content is often the subject of much controversy, preferring sometimes brutal honesty and favoring the full utilization of the games reviewer's 10-point scale.

On August 11th, 2008 Sterling was named as the top writer in SarcasticGamer.com's "5 Gaming Writers You Should Read." Sarcastic Gamer's Doc on Sterling:

"Jim [Sterling] has the rare ability to be ridiculous, over the top, and deadly serious at the same time. Jim can say more in 300 words than a lot of bloggers could hope to in a week. Some of my recent favorites include Jim weighing [in] on the Fat Princess, his take on improvements being made to Alone in the Dark, and his hilarious impalement of Denis Dyack."
