Argue the Toss

Five games that define Us

The Argue the Toss Team are jumping on that “5 things that define you meme”. It’s been done with films, TV, books and biscuits – everything. But this time it’s games and the five games that define us.

It’s not easy to narrow yourself down to five games, but in the spirit of adventure and dedication to the podcasting cause, Drew & Chella have done it. They’ve distilled their essence into five games each.

What is their essence and how does a game equal an essence? Is this scientific? Certainly not. I mean what could a Resident Evil game or Tony Hawk’s Skateboarding say about a person really? And why didn’t Drew put Dark Souls on this list?

All these questions and many more will be left unanswered by this podcast episode, but don’t let that stop you listening.

Chella Ramanan

Chella hails from the UK and joined Gameindustry.com around the year 2000. It was so many moons ago, she can't quite remember. Back then, the only women you saw in the games industry were in bikinis and vertiginous heels at trade shows - oh how times have changed, kind of. Chella started as a humble reviewer, but soon became our European Correspondent and keeps us on top of industry happenings across the Pond. She tends to like the weird Japanese games we've never heard of, so that's good for making us look all-encompassing and stuff. Chella does like games, so don't be fooled by the copious amount of columns devoted to bemoaning the lack of variety in the industry. When she's not surfing (the sea, not the internet) or camping up mountains, Chella likes a good action RPG (especially if it's sci-fi), anything with a good narrative and like we said, the weirder the better. She's also a regular in the GiN Lounge, but that's just because we like her accent.
