SFM Presents: The Top 10 – Videogames of this Generation

On Sunday we had a special show called “The Top 10… Videogames of this Generation.”

As an aside, we’ll be doing more of these “Top 10” shows in the future…

But on Sunday, Christiana Ellis, Justin Macumber, and I battled it out to determine SFM’s first top ten list. It was a knock-down, drag-out fight (or possibly a polite discussion). Each participant brought in a list of fifteen or so games, and before the night was through, we had a list of ten games, ranked from #10 to #1.

We will be releasing a written post soon with summaries of each game and why we chose them, and three extra summaries of games that were on our individual lists but did not make the final ten. But until then, here was some of our final selections, in no particular order (watch the video to see the final results!!):

The Last of Us
Dragon Age: Origins
Mass Effect 3
Portal 2
Red Dead Redemption
Bioshock

As you can tell, our favorite games tended to be single player RPGs or action oriented experiences with great stories. We know this won’t match up with anyone else’s top 10 games list, but that’s not the point. For us, this is SpecFicMedia.com’s Top Ten.

Enjoy!

Podcast Announcement – SFM Presents: Consumption

SFM Presents: Consumption is a new podcast/Google Hangout/YouTube show we’re starting this week.

specficmedia_logoSpecFicMedia.com Presents: Consumption

Some of us are media content creators; others are creators of a different type, make, or model… but all of us are media consumers. SFM Presents: Consumption will be a show where the hosts and a guest will talk about what media they are consuming (with a focus on speculative fiction media, of course). Movies, television, games, books, comic books… they’re all on the table.

As with BTW, the bulk of the show will be spoiler-free (as some of our discussions will be about things that some of the hosts may not have played, read, seen, or heard). But unlike BTW, we will have a spoiler section at the end of each podcast where all topics are fair game.

Our first episode/live show will be Wednesday, July 31st at 9 pm Eastern time. Viewer Q&A will be done through YouTube. I will post the link here when the time comes, but the best place to find our content is our YouTube channel.

Hosts:

P.G. Holyfield (author of Murder at Avedon Hill and SFM Founder
Christiana Ellis (too many podcasts to list here, but you can check out all things Christiana at her site).
Chooch (Into the Blender Podcast Co-Host, and bassist of Ditched By Kate)
Vivid Muse (Into the Blender Podcast Co-Host, Girls\\™ Rules Podcast Host)

Our first guest will be Matthew Wayne Selznick, author of Brave Men Run and the recently released sequel, Pilgrimage.
