Same as last year’s list, I have now done away with a countdown format so these ten films are just presented in alphabetical order.
And also just a reminder as always: this is a list of my favourite films of 2021. Your own mileage may vary.
Enough talk. Have at you!
So 2021, eh? Thought things were going to go back to normal after the stinker that was 2020? Nope. Not really. Things still remain very strange out there.
Seven months on… and I’m back. This time with Part 2 of my Retro handheld showcase! If you need to refresh yourself with the devices looked at previously, you can click HERE to check out my earlier article.
Another puzzle time-lapse video, this time featuring the cover art of Iron Maiden’s album The Trooper.
Finally we have my 5 favourite games of 2020!
Once again, these aren’t all games that were actually released in 2020 or my advice as to what the best games currently out there are. This is simply a list of 5 games that I most enjoyed playing this year and have sunk the most time into - and as you can see from this list I have played a lot of games this year!
Continuing on from my 10 Favourite Films of 2020, next up are my 5 Favourite TV shows watched in 2020, along with 5 more honourable mentions at the end.
So as discussed in my previous rundown here, I will just present these 10 films in no particular order having done away with the traditional ‘countdown’ format. Not just because such a thing is largely inconsequential and divisive, but I also sometimes find myself looking back and wishing I had rejigged the order of things.
Needless to say there will still be some people who will still ask me ‘why did you include this film and not that film instead…’ but be reminded these are just my favourites and not an objective ‘best of’.
Anyway, without further ado – here are my 10 favourite movies of 2020.
Hoo-boy. 2020, eh? What a year. Without harping on unnecessarily it has been evident that this year has brought marked changes to absolutely everyone’s lifestyle. And as the time has come round once again for my yearly review it only makes sense for that to be a bit different as well.
For as long as I can remember I have always loved the idea of having the choice to play loads of different games on a single device. Probably the earliest instance of this was the time when I borrowed a dodgy bootleg 50-in-1 GameBoy cartridge from a friend back in school. Back then, even when playing Super Mario Land I was amazed at the amount of game that could fit in a small 6cm x 6cm bit of plastic. So then being able to choose from 50 different games on a single cartridge utterly blew my simple little mind.
I love my Nintendo Switch. Whilst it’s far from being the ‘perfect’ console it’s just so damn versatile, with the massive library of games available for it (old and new, triple A and indie), coupled with what you can do with a hacked unit makes it so appealing. There is something there for everyone.
I’ve had it for probably less than a year now and during that time have accrued a rather unwieldy amount or peripherals and extras for the console – both good and bad – so I thought it would be interesting do a rundown.
So here we go:
