-

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...

Lord of the Rings' New Owners are Already Talking About Gandalf and Aragorn Spin-Off Movies

-

The rights to The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit have only just been purchased by colossal holdings company Embracer Group but the company is already talking about spin-off films starring Gandalf, Aragorn, Gollum, and more.

Embracer said in its acquisition announcement that, alongside other upcoming Lord of the Rings projects such as Amazon's The Rings of Power and The War of the Rohirrim anime film, it's also eager to explore movie tie-ins for some well known characters.

"Other opportunities include exploring additional movies based on iconic characters such as Gandalf, Aragorn, Gollum, Galadriel, Eowyn, and other characters from the literary works of J.R.R. Tolkien," Embracer said. It will also "continue to provide new opportunities for fans to explore this fictive world through merchandising and other experiences."

Embracer's aqcuisition of Middle-earth Enterprises gives it the worldwide rights to motion pictures, video games, board games, merchandising, theme parks, and stage productions relating to the literary works of J.R.R. Tolkien.

The majority of Lord of the Rings media to be released in the last few decades ultimately came from these rights, - previously owned by The Saul Zaentz Company - through licensing deals that resulted in the likes of Peter Jackson's film trilogies, various Lord of the Rings video games, and more.

While the company therefore is the sole authority regarding potential movies based on Gandalf, Aragorn, and so on, the new projects would likely be fresh takes that aren't necessarily related to the characters or actors featured in the film trilogies. This is akin to upcoming video game The Lord of the Rings: Gollum, which features the familiar character but as a version apparently based directly on the books' lore, and not the movie interpretation.

The Saul Zaentz Company announced its intentions to sell Middle-earth Enterprises earlier this year, with Amazon thought to be the front-runner at the time given the imminent premiere of its Rings of Power series. Embracer has proven itself to be a publishing powerhouse, however, perhaps most notably acquiring three Square Enix developers back in May.
