It’s a big year for Sony, now that the PlayStation 5 is out in the wild and its library is ready to be populated with a number of first-party games. 2020 kicked off with the likes of Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Astro’s Playroom, and Demon’s Souls showing off the potential of the PS5. In 2021, its power and that lightning-quick solid state drive take center-stage with the return of Ratchet & Clank.

The RTX 3090 represents the pinnacle of Ampere power you can purchase today, wrapped in the elegance of Nvidia's latest Founders Edition design. But its gaming value is overshadowed by the cheaper and far more sensible RTX 3080.

There are ghouls, spooky dudes, and all manner of bizarre phenomenon on display. There’s also one very tall lady who appears to be running the show, and fans are hornier than Pepe Le Pew to find out more about Resident Evil 8’s enchanting new antagonist.

The First Samurai doesn’t end the tale of Nioh 2 in a satisfying way but it does provide a meaningful and fun loot experience. Bbrutal new enemies and new gameplay modes makes the complete package of this game something truly special.

There’s a certain joy to be found in Hitman and its sequels, within those failed runs though, learning experiences which players should savour and use to eventually become stealthy forces of nature that can move unseen through the shadows.

Hitman 3 is full of surprises beneath its familiar systems. It manages to break out of its own sandbox without disrupting its formula too much, ending on a subtle note that brings the world of assassination saga to a satisfying end.  

A love letter to the golden age of beat ‘em ups that Nintendo and Sega ruled, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game Complete Edition isn’t without its flaws and it has an entry curve more punishing than starting a band during your midlife crisis, but its still a terrific jump back in time that breathes new life into a cult classic.

In a world where the times are changing, maybe it’d be better if cops and civilians looked up to Marvel’s other and better fictional heroes instead.

There’s a story behind A Knight’s Tale that’s well worth experiencing, and now that it’s almost old enough to legally drink in the US of A, it’s time to celebrate one of the best movies of a terrific year in cinema.

A slow-motion bullet ballet extravaganza, The Hong Kong Massacre is a lean and mean action gameplay whose core gunplay makes for a satisfying and challenging loop that’ll leave you feeling like a hardboiled action star after every face-off.

January’s a bit of a dry month, but for the rest of the year? There’s some dang good content on the way. Arkane’s version of Groundhog Day, Ubisoft’s return to madcap acid trips with guns, and the twilight of the gods boy, are just some of the highlights on the horizon. So here’s a rundown, of what to expect this year.

Here they are, the cream of the 2020 crop, the best comic book covers of the year, attached to some of the best comic books of the year!
