About Eman Fatima

Forever ensnared in a love-fued between 1800s literature and modern gaming, Eman Fatima tries her best to appease both her hobbies by tapping away at her keyboard and writing about her favorite games at any chance she gets.

Industry Focus

I have a problem. I can't play a single game for too long. And I also can't play a single genre for too long. So you'll find me hopping between titles, often before I even finish them completely. But this means that I get to play a lot of different games, most of which are either Indie games that are trying to merge two or even three genres together, or racing games. Do I have ADHD?

Favorite Console

I love my PS2, as it was the piece of hardware that introduced me to video games. I have a lot of memories on it, especially playing Need for Speed Underground 2 (yes, I love racing games). I'm also very fond of my yellow Nintendo Switch Lite and am ever thankful that technology evolved so I could put my Switch to sleep at any point while playing a game and instantly resume it from there whenever I turn it back on, even if it's days later.

Favorite TV Shows

Friends. I have seen this sitcom more than 10 times now. It's more of a comfort show at this point. Failed an exam? Friends. Had a fight with my best friend? Friends. Sad for absolutely no reason at all? Friends. It's mind-blowing how a single show can uplift my mood irrespective of what's wrong in my life. I guess sometimes we badly need to escape reality, and Friends is a perfect for such situations.
