Larry “Major Nelson” Hryb helps Midwest Games navigate the industry’s choppy water

Larry Hryb made a name for himself during a long career at Xbox. Players best knew him as Major Nelson, and he would serve as a bridge between the company and its fans via podcasts and videos.

Last year, he announced his departure from Xbox. Now he’s been active in new ways to contribute to the industry, including acting as an advisor to Midwest Games, a Green Bay-based publisher.
