 Separated at Birth?

Some of the editors here at IGN bear a striking resemblance to truly famous people.

April 1, 1999

Hi folks, Tal here! For the first time since starting here at IGNPC last October, I had a little break in my day when I was able to sit back, stretch a little and have a good look around the office … and what I saw scared me. Everybody looked like someone famous. It was as if I had entered some ritzy Hollywood party, except everybody was wearing jeans, t-shirts and smelled of cheap cologne and even cheaper liquor. At first I thought I was hallucinating from looking at a computer screen for 4,320 straight hours, but I rubbed my eyes and I realized that, indeed, everyone around me does look like a celebrity. I wondered if it was a coincidence or if I'm just in the middle of some governmental genetics experiment gone horribly wrong. Just check out the startling similarities below and decide for yourselves.



PSX big shot Craig Harris

and …


big shot Hollywood director Robert Zemeckis.



Our heavy drinking EIC Trent Ward

and …


Led Zeppelin's heavy rocker John Paul Jones.



Balding strongman and champion of IGNPSX Doug Perry

and …


balding strongman and champion of the WWF Stone Cold Steve Austin.



IGN64 monkeyboy Matt Casamassina

and …


Monkeyman leader General Ursus.



IGN64's extremely efficient and rigid Editor-in-Chief Peer Scheider

and …


the Robot from Lost in Space.



Our very own quiet, secretive Jason Bates

and …


the isolationistic luddite Ted Kaczynski (aka the Unabomber).
