About Michael Reardon
I've been working with Complete Media Group (CMG) and its various brands, particularly Inside Asian Gaming (IAG), since 2009. In September 2025, I joined Complete iGaming (CiG) as Director. CiG is a new media brand launched by CMG in January 2025 to cover the iGaming industry, online casinos, sports betting, poker and more, across the Americas and Asia-Pacific region.
We publish a clean, minimalist daily email newsletter featuring six articles each day, free for anyone to subscribe. You can check it out at completeigaming.com.
My approach to reviewing casino platforms blends long-term industry knowledge with daily news judgement. I focus on what developments and platform features actually mean for real players — not just operators. Articles and reviews emphasise practical, verifiable information: withdrawal speeds, bonus term transparency, game library quality and support responsiveness.
