About me

I'm Reduan, a gamer who follows the games industry closely, from the big announcements to the small details you only spot on a second watch of a trailer. My favourite kind of game is the story-driven one: games where the characters, the writing and the world stay with you long after the credits. Grand Theft Auto VI, built around Jason and Lucia and a whole state to explore, is exactly that kind of game, so it felt like the natural place to start RabetPlays.

What I do on RabetPlays

  • I founded the site and I run it day to day.
  • I write and edit the guides and articles, and I sign every one of them.
  • I check facts against what Rockstar Games, Take-Two Interactive and the PlayStation and Xbox stores have published, and I make sure anything unconfirmed is labelled as such.
  • I work with the team on the vehicle and weapon ratings, which draw on Rockstar's own material, what players report and how similar models played in earlier Grand Theft Auto games.
  • I decide what goes live, and I correct it when something turns out to be wrong.

How I work

My rule for the site is simple: if Rockstar hasn't said it, RabetPlays doesn't present it as fact. Estimates are marked as estimates, names that fans found are marked as fan identifications, and every guide and article lists its sources and the date it was last checked. You'll find the details in our editorial policy.
