Happy 15th to the Annual New York Game Awards! We’re about a month away from the big one-five.. Since our 15th will be a landmark moment, the Circle has been looking back at some of the best videos of the previous years, finding the real gems that attracted everyone’s attention throughout recent years. Like this one below with Josh Johnson!
The well-regarded comedian spoke about the games that helped him through the pandemic.
2020 had just rolled around, things were looking grim as the world itself came to an abrupt halt, workplaces were barren, and schools were eerily silent. Yet, in the homes of many out there, the internet kept people somewhat optimistic with faces such as Josh’s sharing light hearted videos for those who needed a laugh.
In this exclusive video, Josh talked about his favorite games of the pandemic. Again, the pandemic was hard on a lot of us, but that didn’t stop the game companies we know and love from delivering what they could. New games and trailers for projects still emerged, aiming to get gamers like Josh through the troubling days of isolation within their homes.
While it may have been a short message, Josh’s reflection on the pandemic serves as a reminder, even the small things can make a big impact!
It’s humorous but poignant moments like this from Josh that drive the Circle to continue as we have, pushing ever forward to the next year as we prepare for the 15th Annual New York Game Awards show. We hope to see as many people as we can in person yet again, as those years of the pandemic are luckily behind us!
