News:: Plants vs. Zombies creator George Fan on past success, future risks, and beers with Edmund McMillen

George Fan is pretty modest for someone who created Insaniquarium and Plants vs. Zombies, two of the most memorable and replayable games ever released. His career has spanned almost two decades, from freaky Flash games to creating a major franchise in Zombies, which is endlessly iterated upon by Electronic Arts.

In speaking to him about his upcoming release, Octogeddon, he fondly recalled his humble origins on a gaming portal that he refers to as an "online version of Chuck E. Cheese," and described himself as a "gnomish tinkerer." I could immediately tell that this is someone who never wants to stop making things.
