Mikey Neumann is a creative director for Gearbox Software, most well known for his work on Brothers in Arms and Borderlands. He writes, voice acts, and is a renaissance man of countless talents. He famously went on-the-record saying that he would play Borderlands on release day with anyone who could produce eveidence they had pre-ordered it, and—thanks to extensive coverage of the offer by several gaming blogs–ended up with his own gaming marathon as a result.
Despite some recent medical setbacks Mikey remains committed to his passions is presently hard at work on Borderlands 2, as well as several other creative endeavours.
