About This Quiz

If you can believe it, Polygon has been around for eight years already, giving us all the in-depth and zany video game knowledge we could hope for, plus a heaping helping of views, news and perspectives that no other site would ever come up with. Along the way, their video producers have become icons of video game culture. Brian, Simone, Pat and Jenna can all come at the same topic from a unique angle that makes each of them fun to watch in their own way. 

Maybe you dig the thoughtful approach that Jenna brings to the table or the deep dives you'll get from Brian on topics you may never have even imagined before (like the blasphemy of Sonic the Hedgehog?). Maybe you just vibe with the way Simone randomly dances in the background of a video or the completely off-the-wall takes that Pat will use to present something as simple as a review of a new title. Whatever your approach to life, we bet that you 100% match up with one of the Polygon.com crew in more than just a few ways. But if you always wanted to know which one it was, now's the time to get to the bottom of things!
