-

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...

Nintendo Works to Fix Game-Breaking Paper Mario Issue

-
Nintendo has promised to fix a game-breaking issue in Paper Mario: The Origami King that can keep players from progressing through the story. Light location spoilers for Paper Mario: The Origami King follow. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/05/14/paper-mario-the-origami-king-announcement-trailer"] On Mario and Olivia's journey to the last streamer in The Origami King, players have to collect four stamps for their Spring of Rainbows VIP card in the Shangri-Spa area. After you collect all four stamps from four different hot springs, you gain access to a secret fifth hot spring. However, once you enter the fifth hot spring, the Spring of Rainbows, you lose your VIP pass. And, the other four hot springs will not give Mario a second stamp, meaning it's impossible to regain the VIP pass after you've already used it. If you try to re-enter the Spring of Rainbows, Mario will once again be asked to show his VIP pass. So, if you leave the Spring of Rainbows b...

Tencent Acquires Majority Stake in Don't Starve Developer Klei Entertainment

-
Tencent has acquired a majority stake in Klei Entertainment, the studio behind such games as Don't Starve and Mark of the Ninja. Klei Entertainment founder Jamie Cheng took to the the studio's forums to announce the news and to assure its fans that "as part of this agreement, Klei retains full autonomy of creative and operations across all aspects of the studio, including projects, talent, and more." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2018/04/05/dont-starve-nintendo-switch-edition-trailer"] As for what's going to change, Cheng mentions that while there are some "boring accounting changes" that will need to be adjusted to, he will still be running the studio as before, with "no changes to staffing, projects, or other operations." Cheng continued to discuss why this decision was made and, among other things, how it will help Klei Entertainment continue to do what it does best - "making unique experiences that no one else can." "Klei has been around for 15 years, and we have made many changes over the years in order to respond to a changing world," Cheng wrote. "Consistently, my wish has been to enable people to do their best creative work, to learn and grow, to not have to worry about finances, and be able to enjoy their lives outside the studio. This has not changed. This partnership helps us navigate a changing industry, and helps us focus on what we do best: making unique experiences that no one else can." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2012/09/07/mark-of-the-ninja-video-review"] Tencent, which has invested in other companies that have produced such titles as Path of Exile, League of Legends, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, Clash of Clans, Fortnite, and more, helped Klei distribute its games in China in 2016. Furthermore, Don't Starve Together was the first game to launch on Tencent's WeGame platform. These past collaborations helped make the decision for Klei to allow this acquisition, as Cheng feels that it is the only company that "would let us retain the level of control that we demand." Klei Entertainment's newest title, Griftlands, is currently available on PC in Early Access and is also expected to be released on Nintendo Switch later this year.
