The roaring dumpster fire that was 2020 has come and gone and what a strange one it was. This year saw not just cataclysmic world events but also many great games so it is only natural that these games were memed on...for better or for worse. Let’s take a look at EarlyGame’s list of top memes from 2020.

The Animal Crossing Memes

The year started with Animal Crossing: New Horizon as everyone built their dream home on their dream island. Every Sunday Mae would visit you with some hot turnip stocks!

The Last of Us 2 Memes

Love it or hate it, this game made a huge splash on the meme and gaming scene. In the end, it won several Game of the Year awards and still divides the internet today!

PS5 and Xbox Series X Memes

Now we're no experts in design, but if the internet starts to meme on the shape of your console, then perhaps it is just ugly and you did something wrong. The PS5 looks like it is wearing a collared shirt and the Xbox looks like a fridge. The PS5 was perhaps the worst offender! Wasn't technology supposed to get smaller?

So what's on the table for today? A little retro gaming?

The Among Us Memes

This one was really hard to pick but all Among us meme center on one word: “Sus.” The game may have been developed in 2018 but it suddenly exploded in 2020.

The RTX Memes

Another meme with so many choices but we settled for this one because an Avengers X Shrek mashup is something we all need. Also, we would like to add that when your graphics card costs x2 more than a PS5, there is something wrong with the way the PC master race thinks. It seems we the console peasants just don't understand.

The Console Wars Memes

The PS5 is the clear winner of the console wars by pretty much every metric you can come up with: games, controller, or sales. This meme sums it all up!

The Cyberpunk Memes

Now, some memes come from a place of love and others come from hate. It’s fair to say a lot of hate has been thrown at Cyberpunk due to its terrible PS4 version. It was so bad that Sony took it off the PlayStation Store! This meme tells you exactly why.
