Paul Glancey
Paul Glancey is a video game producer and former journalist in the United Kingdom. He made his first steps into the videogame industry as a writer with '' Zzap!64'' and '' CVG'' before contributing a few reviews to '' Mean Machines'' (''Wrestle War'' in issue 9 was the first). Like Julian Rignall and Richard Leadbetter, he tended to appear in both EMAP magazines at the same time. He went on to launch ''MegaTech'' - the first UK Mega Drive only magazine. This was an impressive publication, which, at its peak, had a monthly sale of over 40,000 copies. Ultimately, its publisher, EMAP Images, sold the magazine to Maverick Magazines, the publisher of a competing magazine called '' Mega Drive Advanced Gaming''. Shortly after ''MegaTech'' was bought, Maverick closed it down. After ten years in videogames journalism Paul moved into the business itself by becoming the Senior Game Evaluator at publisher Eidos Interactive from 1998 to 2000.https://uk.linkedin.com/in/paul-glancey-75a437 ...

Surnames
In some cultures, a surname, family name, or last name is the portion of one's personal name that indicates one's family, tribe or community. Practices vary by culture. The family name may be placed at either the start of a person's full name, as the forename, or at the end; the number of surnames given to an individual also varies. As the surname indicates genetic inheritance, all members of a family unit may have identical surnames or there may be variations; for example, a woman might marry and have a child, but later remarry and have another child by a different father, and as such both children could have different surnames. It is common to see two or more words in a surname, such as in compound surnames. Compound surnames can be composed of separate names, such as in traditional Spanish culture, they can be hyphenated together, or may contain prefixes. Using names has been documented in even the oldest historical records. Examples of surnames are documented in the 11th ce ...
