BaziCenter
Founder and Lead Web Producer
2005– 2024
BaziCenter has grown to become one of the major video games media outlets and community platforms in Middle East.
The foundation for BaziCenter laid out back in 2005, when there was a need for a place for gamers to share and discuss their thoughts and experiences about everything related to this industry. Back in those years there weren't any major media in the region to cover video games exclusively.
Through all these years, BaziCenter played an important role in connecting gamers and training journalists, and helped those who were interested in developing video games tremendously.
BaziCenter's focus and professionalism in creating exclusive content, while paying extra attention to both quantity and quality, along with its reputation, finally led to official partnership with Metacritic in 2017, and as of now, it is the firs Middle Eastern media to have ever featured on Metacritic.
