Best of 2020: Wasteland 3 and James’ other GOTY picks

GOTY, James, Picks, Wasteland

2020 is a harvest year for Fallout games.

Hehehe, no, I’m not talking about Fallout 76 rearranging its entire storyline to bring the dead back to life. This is definitely one of the biggest game U-turns ever.

what? No NPC? No, you are thinking of “Fallout 75”; there is always a dive bar there. Please give our robot a new ass.

What do you mean, the whole main task is to listen to the audio log left by the supervisor in the past? She is just above thereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee…

I mean, making “appropriate” Fallout games has become a unique game type, and if this sounds like a hard premise, then you will lose the meaning of the entire Wastelanders collapse itself: if you ignore the context seriously enough , Anything can make sense.

Therefore, although Obsidian Entertainment’s excellent Alien World missed this list in just a few short months (despite the steam release and the full DLC, which is very worthy of your attention in 2020), now There are some excellent games that can convey this spirit everyone’s favorite post-nuclear hell.

The best is “Wasteland 3” produced by InXile Entertainment, a studio founded by the co-founder of Interplay, which launched Fallout and Fallout 2.

The background of the game is set in 2090, in the snowy and radiation-damaged Colorado. Like the old game, it is an isometric RPG that revolves around gathering your incompetent squads together for turn-based battles and aggressive dialogue. Conspiracy. However, although its scope is different from that of Bethesda’s later sandbox work, it makes up for this deficiency in the role and depth of role-playing-therefore, you will soon be caught in a huge, grim and stupid world Attracted.

The power of Wasteland 3 is that it balances stupidity and seriousness, and the stark juxtaposition makes the game so memorable.

You are struggling in a stubborn battle with clowns, just want to enter for free in a shopping mall controlled by a hostile sect wearing only Halloween costumes. Or, you are beating a giant frog to free the contract elves in Santa’s workshop. Or, you are fighting between bandit camps to destroy AI priest Ronald Reagan and his worship of Nancy.

Mix all of these with the weird and disturbing new country and future gospel soundtrack in the best way, and you will be the real winner.

Replayability and player choice have been buzzwords for some time, but the all-rounder approach and huge ending of Wasteland 3-plus a variety of createable characters-make it truly worth trying.

Cyberpunk 2077-PC, definitely not PS4 or Xbox One

The sale of Cyberpunk 2077 is an unparalleled look to the future of the game. A magnificent experience will appear on the screen, making coffee for you and saying that your jumper looks good.

In fact, this is just a good video game. But the real galaxy brain believes that if you put a vault boy in every corner, it will produce radiation 5.

Think about it carefully: you have a character to express yourself, you explore a vast open world full of crackling sounds, and your questline changes from memes and Portal references to a very dark range.

Bethesda MO even contains post-release errors. What remains now is whether CDPR can imitate the same Skyrim redemption arc, because it has left many iron daggers and cheese wheels, so it is unusable on PS3 and still released on the new platform after about seven years.

Under all the shocks, Cyberpunk 2077 may not be the absolute pinnacle of its hyped TV entertainment, but there is still a lot of incredible watching pleasure.

“Our Last Memories” Part 2-PS4

Continuing from the game that cannot be run on the PlayStation console, this is a real game. The second part of “Our Last Memories” is a seemingly huge, empty and severe, fascinating epic, with surprises in every corner.

Although its chunky marksmanship is not the strongest, its interesting narrative and influential suit are well worth your time.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 – PC, Xbox One, PS4

After THPS 5 suffered a merciless disaster, the first two Tony Hawk games were smoothly reproduced, turning the entire 900 movies over.

My Tony Hawk game when I was a kid was Pro Skater 4, so I still think it’s the best, but these games look great, feel great, play great, and add a lot of distractions to the already good soundtrack. . Great, great, great, great, great.

It’s time for Tony Hawk’s Underground 1 + 2 double pack. For some reason, both his cab and Bam Margera’s father wore terrible pants.

Do it, coward.
