While 2020 was the worst year in recent memory, there were some bright spots, and not all of them involved Fleetwood Mac and fruit juice. There were some good video games as well.
Here, in the order I played them (more or less), are the best games I played in 2020.
DOOM has always been about simplicity. The simple joy of running around and shooting demons without having to worry about looting or crafting or talking to anyone so you can complete multi-layered objectives.
But while the new DOOM Eternal (Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Switch) continues this approach, the good people at iD Software have added some interesting new mechanics to this sci-fi first-person shooter, and this sequel is all the better for it.
A few days after releasing the new trailer for the upcoming sci-fi first-person shooter DOOM Eternal (Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Switch, Stadia), the good people at Bethesda held at event in Los Angeles where they gave journalists a chance to play the first three hours of the game in anticipation of its March 20th release.
What follows are my impressions of the game’s opening levels, and will obviously contain some spoilers.
