Game of the Year: John’s Top 5 PS5, PS4 Games of 2020

Game of the Year: John’s Top 5 PS5, PS4 Games of 2020

Alongside our staff-voted Game of the Year awards, each of our writers have crafted their own personal lists, covering their top five PlayStation 5 and PS4 titles of 2020. Today, it’s the turn of reviewer John Cal McCormick.

Ultimately, I found that I enjoyed Kentucky Route Zero most at the beginning of the game, and the longer it went on and the zanier it got without providing answers, the more I lost interest. While the overall narrative didn’t really land for me, the game does have a cool Twin Peaks-esque atmosphere that stayed with me for days after I finished it. The song performance at the dive bar in the middle of the game was a highlight. If you’re wondering why a game I feel so tepid about is in my top five of the year, it’s because I didn’t play many new games that weren’t rubbish.

Persona 5 Royal PS4 PlayStation 4

I’m not actually sure whether I liked Persona 5 Royal more than the original base game or not. In some ways it was objectively better, but in others — particularly the new final chapter — I wasn’t sure it was an improvement. The brand new ten-hour epilogue actually just derailed the story for me and made the ending feel anticlimactic. So a deserving #4, then. This is going well.

Final Fantasy VII Remake PS4 PlayStation 4

About twenty hours into Final Fantasy VII Remake, I was sure this would be my favourite game of the year, and one of my favourite games of all time. But once I got to the Kingdom Hearts daddy chuff ending I’d kinda soured on the experience. It’s still mostly a great game, and I loved seeing the old gang back together, but we didn’t need to reinvent the wheel here with a cartoonland finale. Less is more sometimes. A lot less. A lot of less. It’s like if, for the last twenty minutes of The Dark Knight, they swapped out Christian Bale’s Batman for Adam West’s.

Ghost of Tsushima PS4 PlayStation 4

I really couldn’t decide whether this would be number 1 for me or not, and on another day it might have been. While the story delivery is perhaps a bit dry, it excels in every other regard. It’s beautiful, the combat is fantastic, and for an open world game, it’s wonderful to see a title that doesn’t bombard us with pointless busy work to keep us playing for 100 hours. Wandering around the world Sucker Punch created was a joy, and I can’t wait to see what comes next.

The Last of Us Part II PS4 PlayStation 4

I think I went for The Last of Us: Part II as my game of the year because of how it made me feel. While some games — every game on this list, actually — made me feel genuine real life emotions in parts, The Last of Us 2 gave me feelings throughout most of the playthrough. Bad feelings, mostly, but feelings nonetheless. I don’t think that the narrative was perfectly handled — particularly the ending — but the game is almost unbearably intense, and I loved Abby’s story. I couldn’t put the pad down because I just had to see what happened next, and I can’t say that about many other games this year. Plus, I want it to win game of the year so Internet babies have a tantrum. And isn’t that the real reason we vote in these things? Spite? Yes. Spite.
