Francis Flisiuk is a freelance writer and local news producer based out of Portland, Maine. Francis has 10 years of experience in print, digital and broadcast journalism but has been playing video games for much longer. His interest in gaming started with the Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine on the Sega Genesis and he fondly remembers a time where he once thought Majora’s Mask on the N64 represented the pinnacle of graphical fidelity. Now he considers himself an expert in all things Playstation and Sony with a particular interest in linear games with a cinematic level of storytelling. When he’s not writing gaming and tech guides for Digital Trends he also enjoys making music, playing tennis and taking photos of food and pretty places.
