The 10 Best Sonic Games

-
Image
Few video game characters are as iconic as Sonic the Hedgehog. The speedy little blue blur has been around for over three decades, touching every corner of pop culture along the way, from games, to comics, to TV, to blockbuster movies. But we’re here specifically to celebrate the mainline Sonic game series and pick the best of them. Before we start, let’s quickly touch upon our criteria. We tried to rank these games based on a combination of historical significance, innovation, and how well these games stand the test of time. Some games, like Sonic Adventure 1 and the original Sonic the Hedgehog, for instance, are obviously super important to the Sonic series and set the foundation for both 2D and 3D Sonic games to follow, but we felt like they both didn’t quite hold up as well as their sequels when judged by a modern standard, which was why they just missed this list. The 10 games on this list are the ones we feel are the best examples of both classic and modern Sonic style. So w...

Cyberpunk 2077's Developer's Bonus Structure Changed After Launch Issues

-
Following launch issues surrounding Cyberpunk 2077, CD Projekt Red has allegedly changed its developer's bonus structure to ensure they will still get their bonuses. As reported by Bloomberg, executives at CD Projekt SA have taken "responsibility for the buggy release of the highly-anticipated title Cyberpunk 2077 this week" and have made changed to make sure that the team "will receive their full bonuses no matter how the game is reviewed." “We initially had a bonus system that was focused on the game’s ratings and the release date, but after consideration, we believe that measure is simply not fair under the circumstances,” wrote Adam Badowski, studio head and creative director for Cyberpunk 2077, in the email to staff that was obtained by Bloomberg. “We underestimated the lengths and complexity involved to make this a reality, and still you did everything you could to deliver an ambitious, special game.” [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/12...

Opinion: Xbox's Exclusive Game Drought Is Finally Almost Over

-
I’ve waited a long time to say this with confidence: Microsoft is finally – finally – set up for sustained first-party success. Xbox Studios’ on-paper portfolio was capped off by The Game Awards’ riveting reveal of Perfect Dark, which will revive a beloved N64-era franchise that has been dormant for 15 years. It’s been entrusted to The Initiative, Microsoft’s lone new homegrown studio located in the development hotbed of Santa Monica that’s staffed by talent with impressive resumes. Perfect Dark’s director, for instance, is Drew Murray, who also helmed the sublime Sunset Overdrive. But let’s back up a bit first. The story of the Xbox One’s disastrous launch has been well-told at this point, though I’d argue that Microsoft’s failures in the first-party/exclusive games department over the past generation have been just as damaging to the brand, if not more so. Funny enough, Xbox One had a pretty solid launch window’s worth of exclusives, including Forza Motorsport 5 , Dead Rising 3 , ...

JJ Abrams' Bad Robot Forms Game Studio With Left 4 Dead Creator

-
Bad Robot Productions, JJ Abrams’ movie, and TV production company, has launched a video game division under the guidance of former Valve executive Michael Booth. In 2018, Abrams announced that Bad Robots will be expanding into video games with Bad Robot Games, but the newest venture under Booth will bring video game development in-house. Meaning Bad Robot themselves will begin developing and designing games on their own. Booth will serve as general manager and will lead the creative team through the company’s first game, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Booth was formerly a developer for Turtle Rock Studios, the developers of Left 4 Dead and Back 4 Blood . He was project lead on games such as Counter-Strike: Condition Zero, Nox, as well as working on Team Fortress 2 and Command & Conquer: Generals.

Cyberpunk 2077 Has A Steep Learning Curve, We Can Help

-
Image
Cyberpunk 2077 is finally out, and it has already become apparent that navigating Night City may be a more daunting task than many players were expecting. Maybe you missed an important tutorial because the guy you were talking to started aggressively T-posing, or perhaps there just... wasn't a tutorial, because this is Night City, and you are basically on your own. With an RPG as robust as Cyberpunk, there's a lot of mechanics to wrap your head around right at the start, different systems to manage and keep track of, and you can get just as lost in the back alleys of Night City as you can in the game's never ending menus and inventories. The information overload is Braindance-levels of real During my first hours in Night City, I spent so much time trying to steal cars I couldn't keep, searched in vain for access points, and wondered who the hell kept lighting me on fire. I think it's safe to say we've all run into plenty of problems long before Keanu Reeves sho...

Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond Review

-
Image
Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond attempts to return to the series’ roots with a VR twist. It’s also storied Titanfall 2 developer Respawn Entertainment’s first step into VR and one of the first major World War 2-themed shooters to land in the medium. While it largely succeeds with frantic Nazi-killing action that brings you into the chaos of the second World War in locations like Omaha Beach and Peenemünde, its inconsistent tone and quality makes for a shooter campaign that drags on past its welcome. Next to that, though, is the truly impressive documentary dedicated to shedding light on the true stories of those who fought and served. Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond itself, however, pales in comparison, not only to the legendary legacy that it attempts to draw from, but also in comparison to other recent VR shooters. Before you can jump into this Oculus exclusive (which I played on an Oculus Rift S), you have to get past Medal of Honor’s shockingly high system specs that warn of per...
