London, Mar 26 (ANI): A British teenager has turned into an Internet sensation after he uploaded videos of himself on YouTube, showing how to win computer games. Russell Sollis, 18, has had more than a million hits on his films, which teach other gamers how to complete difficult computer games.

And he is such an expert at the games that people all over the world are now logging on to get his tips on gameplay.

His popularity has reached sky-high and last month his videos were the 35th most viewed on YouTube.

Sollis, a student, first fell in love with computer games when his dad bought him a Sega Saturn computer system for his seventh birthday.

But now, he receives thousands of fan emails asking for his advice after starting to post video ‘walkthroughs’ explaining complicated games onto YouTube.

“I’ve now achieved a million hits on all my videos. It’s taken me by storm how well it’s done because a lot of people do this stuff, I’ve just budged in,” the Telegraph quoted Sollis, who posts under the name Mr Bigruss.

“I only started off my YouTube account last September to upload college work. Then because I’ve always been into gaming, I spent 200 pounds on high-definition recording gear to record some game footage.

“I completed the 18-rated Dante’s Inferno game and made a walkthrough, which I uploaded on YouTube.

“A lot of people had got stuck because it’s quite a difficult game so they started watching it and that kicked off my channel.

“It has really taken off in the last two months,” he added. (ANI)
