Az started playing video games with the SNES, and has owned a variety of systems over the years. Although his gaming interests may have changed with age, Az is generally broad minded and open to most types of games.

His favourite series include The Legend of Zelda, Final Fantasy and Metroid, and his Dead or Alive Kasumi statue collection now stands at five.

An avid supporter of an independent Wales, Az created the website WalesInGames.com, documenting video games that reference his home country of Wales, with the hope of highlighting and promoting Welsh references within one of his favourite hobbies.

Az's other passions include tennis, football, cats, and slowly but surely trying to learn Welsh. Iechyd da!
