-

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...

WB Games Chief Says Division Has 'Critically Important' Role to Play Amid Internal Shakeups

-

It's been a rough time for Warner Bros. Discovery, which has dealt with delays and cancellations amid the fallout from its merger, but at least one divison appears to still doing well.

In a new interview with Axios Gaming, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment chief David Haddad touted the divisions recent successes, which include Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga and Multiversus. Both games have managed to sell tens of millions of units while garnering solid reviews.

According to Haddad, the division is profitable and does not look likely to suffer the sort of layoffs and cancellations that have impacted other parts of WB Discovery.

"I do believe, especially moving forward, that we have a critically important role to play inside the company," Haddad said.

According to Haddad, WB Discovery has expressed "a strong belief in the growth of the games business and being part of that overall company strategy."

This would seem to temporarily put to rest rumors that studios within WB Games — which include the likes of NetherRealm and Rocksteady — were for sale following WB Discovery's merger. Xbox and PlayStation were rumored to be among the groups interested in such an acquisition. Previous owner AT&T reportedly attempted to sell WB Games for $4 billion in 2020.

WB Games has been a relative bright spot in what has otherwise been a difficult year for WB Discovery. In early August, WB Discovery stunned Hollywood by unexpectedly cancelling Batgirl, yanking dozens of shows off HBO Max, and effectively killing the Arrowverse. The backlash has been intense as creators and fans alike have spoken out against what they perceive to the heavy-handed decisions by CEO David Zaslav, who has been outspoken in his desire to build WB's own version of the MCU.

WB Games, meanwhile, continues to move ahead with multiple high-profile projects including Hogwarts Legacy, Wonder Woman, and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Gotham Knights, which we've been covering all month via IGN First, is WB's next game. It's due out on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S on October 21.
