About Eric Law

Eric Law is a TheBestWarGames contributor from Pennsylvania, USA. An MMORPG-focused video game writer for TheBestWarGames for four years and counting, Eric cut his teeth on gaming since he was a wee lad watching his father play Lands of Lore. Equipped with a +1 Bachelor's Degree of Creative Writing, making the jump from gamer to game journalist was a natural evolution.

One of his articles was even cited on the official Dungeons and Dragons Wikipedia page!
