About Pam K Ferdinand
Pam Ferdinand is a news and reviews writer/editor at GameRant. She started out doing QA in game development at Blizzard, moved on to game localization and project management at Technicolor, and later began writing news, walkthroughs, and reviews as an editor at a now-defunct site called Mahalo; a senior editor at Hardcore Droid, which focuses on Android mobile games; and a guides writer at Destructoid. Pam's favorite series include the Silent Hill, Fallout, Deus Ex, Far Cry, Remnant, God of War (original), and Dark Souls/Elden Ring franchises. She joined the GameRant gaming news team in 2019.
Favorite Games
Favorite individual games include The Last Guardian, Prey 2017, Cyberpunk 2077, Returnal, and The Division. But this list is always growing!
Industry Focus
Pam covers a little bit of everything happening in the gaming industry, from acquisitions to new releases. She is a long-time fan of survival horror, soulslike, roguelike, RPG/adventure, first and third-person shooter, and random indie gems. Pam is partial to the Xbox ecosystem and its Play Anywhere philosophy, but she'll gladly play games on PlayStation, PC, or Nintendo Switch.
Favorite Console
Pam's favorite console would have to be the PlayStation 4. It was sleek, and the design was just gorgeous. It also had themes, a sorely missed feature, and the interface was smooth and user-friendly. Pam's still holding out hope that Sony will add themes to the PS5, but it's not a great hope.
