Griffin McElroy Polygon
On October 24, 2012, he founded Polygon along with his brother Justin McElroy and Christopher Grant. The gaming blog Polygon is an American video game website that publishes news, reviews, culture, and videos.
As of June 2014, the website ranks 4th among games sites by Comscore web traffic data: behind IGN (a subsidiary of Ziff Davis, itself wholly owned by j2 Global), GameSpot (the site was launched on May 1, 1996, and created by Vince Broady, Pete Deemer, and Jon Epstein), and Kotaku.
