Weekend Whammy: Best Selling Games & Consoles of 2020
HELLO! HI! ALOHA! Welcome back, friends and chimps that have learned how to use the Internet. It’s time for another Weekend Whammy where I ramble on about what I’ve been playing and what I plan on playing, plus I’ll also be covering some Star Wars and Indiana Jones news before wrapping it all up with…

Cyberpunk 2077 Review – The Best Mess Of 2020
Say what you like about the game itself, there’s no denying that the launch of Cyberpunk 2077 has been anything but dull and is probably the most controversial launch in recent memory. Three delays in 2020 suggested that CD Projekt RED were planning on sticking to their mantra that it would only be launched when…

Weekend Whammy: Skate & Murder & Glitches
Hello, hello, and hello my fine fellow humans! I hope you all had a kickass Christmas and a most excellent New Year. It was quiet here for both events. I picked up one of my brothers for Christmas day, and had both nieces up on Christmas Eve so they could open their presents. And then…

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 Review – Sick
Let’s assume for a moment that you’ve been living in some sort of perpetual darkness your entire life with no access to the Internet, game consoles or even a toilet. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 is a skateboarding game that’s all about arcadey thrills and spills as you link together tricks into increasingly absurd combos.…

The Best 2019 Game of 2020
There are a lot of games on the market and it’s impossible to play all of them. But that can also be a good thing, because later on you can stumble upon an older game and play it free of all the initial hype and excitement. That’s exactly my experience with Death Stranding, the latest…

The Best Comeback Of 2020 Was…
2020 saw quite a few series being resurrected, their decaying corpses being dug up, dusted off, jammed into some new clothes and shoved out of the door. Crash Bandicoot came back to a great reception and Desperados emerged after years and years of hibernation, just two prime examples. But for me the best comeback after…

The Best Remake of 2020 Was…
The year of 2020 was one filled with remakes and remasters, from huge titles like Final Fantasy VII and Demon’s Souls to more surprising games like Destroy All Humans. But for me there was only one remake that I could pick, the one that has brought the most nostalgic joy to my wizened and bitter…

The Best PC Game Of 2020 Was…
In some ways it feels wrong to pick a game that so few people got to play. There’s no denying, though, that Half-Life: Alyx was the best PC exclusive I played this year, and the best VR game by a mile. VR remains an incredibly immersive and fascinating way of playing games, but as a…

The Best Game Of 2020 That You Shouldn’t Buy (Yet)
What other game than Cyberpunk 2077 could possibly have won this illustrous award that hundreds of developers clamor over to claim? Well, truthfully, Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla almost took the crown due to being a buggy mess and the fact that I still can’t actually finish the game to this day. But then Cyberpunk 2077 stomped…

The Best Overlooked Video Game Gem Of 2020 Was….
Launched back in March, Ori & the Will of the Wisps received a lot of glowing reviews but was damaged by performance issues. But since I only got around to finally playing it last week those issues have been resolved and new, shiny Xbox Series X and Series enhancements came out. In other words, I…
