DualShockers’ Favorite Games of 2020 — Camilo’s Top 10
Video games were one of the things that helped me keep my sanity through 2020. Having to only pick ten was tough, but these were my standouts.
As 2020 (thankfully) comes to a close, the DualShockers staff is coming together to share their personal favorite games throughout the year. Unlike our official Game of the Year Awards, each of these lists is meant to reflect which games stood out personally to each of our staff members. Additionally, any game — not just 2020 releases — can be considered in each Top 10 List.
It goes without saying that 2020 was kind of a dumpster fire of a year, to the point that making such comments about it feels like a bit of a cliche. As a result, video game releases were that much more important and meaningful than they may have ever been in the past. There was a major rise in the consumption and usage of video games this year due to the still ongoing pandemic. People have clearly needed things to do while being cooped up and socially distanced or needed some much-needed catharsis to escape the stresses of having to be a conscious human being in the real world.
