The 10 Best Sonic Games

-

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...

Baldur's Gate 3 is a game full of intricate detail. With so many dialogue options, characters, classes, and quests, everyone's experience is a little bit different.

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...

Disco Elysium Update Adds Fan Art Creation Tool 'Collage Mode'

-

Developer ZA/UM has announced Collage Mode for Disco Elysium; a photo mode-like addition that allows you to arrange your own scenes and dialogue using the game’s characters and locations.

Launching today on PC and coming to consoles in the coming days, Collage Mode can be found on Disco Elysium’s main menu. Unlike a photo mode, it is not a system to take screenshots of moments within the game. Instead, Collage Mode gives you full access to every character, location, and effect used across Disco Elysium’s story, and allows you to create a scene from scratch. Think of it as a fan art tool rather than an in-game camera and you’ll be on the right track.

The tool is pretty simple to use, with drag-and-drop controls that allow you to easily place items in the world. Characters can be set in a large variety of poses, and even rescaled to tiny or huge proportions. A collection of stickers, including cute emoji-like faces or items of clothing, can then be layered over the scene. You can also add effect filters, like rain, snow and fog, or a frame around the scene, to add the final touches.

My personal favourite addition, though, is the dialogue reel that runs down the left-hand side of the screen. You can add this to scenes and input dialogue for each of your characters, allowing you to create an ‘authentic’ Disco Elysium scene.

While the ‘collage’ effect of the tool does mean that the scene is inherently static (you can’t create an animation or anything like that), the landscapes retain any 3D properties they have in the game, so characters can be positioned behind props and items like swings will sway in the wind.

For those fully enthralled in the world of Disco Elysium, there are also some hidden secrets to be found within the locations. ZA/UM promises new voiceover from the Final Cut’s narrator will reveal untold histories of Martinaise, should you be able to find them.

Collage Mode is available for Disco Elysium from today, so expect to see some absolutely beautiful tributes to Kim Kitsuragi on Reddit and Twitter very soon. For more, check out our review of Disco Elysium: The Final Cut, as well as one of the creator’s thoughts on if there will ever be a sequel.
