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...

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...

Cyber Monday: Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S Deals

The Xbox Series X is still $50 off its regular price, and this is likely your last chance to score a deal this year.

There's never been a better time to jump into current-gen gaming, and if you're in the market for a new Xbox Series console, you can save a bundle on new console... bundles... at Walmart and other retailers! One of the very top offers is the Xbox Series S Black Friday deal which includes the console and even packs in three months of Game Pass Ultimate at no extra cost -- which is an additional $50 in savings as well. This is our favorite deal in the sale for Xbox.

For those after an Xbox Series X Black Friday deal, you also won't be disapointed. Walmart is coming up with the goods and has the Xbox Series X Diablo 4 bundle for just $439 right now. There's also the Diablo 4 + Modern Warfare 3 bundle for $489 -- another example of some serious savings to be had this Black Friday.

Cyber Monday: Xbox Game Deals

While the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales have technically ended, there are still more incredible deals on games to pick up for Xbox consoles.

Plus, there's so many other great discounts to considering so don't miss out and check out out all the best Xbox Cyber Monday deals we've found for you just here.

Best Xbox Game Pass Deals for Cyber Monday

We all heard about the Xbox Game Pass price hike that Microsoft implemented recently. A month of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate now costs $16.99, a hefty fee. But, if you weren't aware, you can actually still circumvent this change by buying Game Pass codes from retailers like Amazon who haven't yet increased their prices to reflect the change. Paying $44.99 isn't a huge discount versus the $50.97 Microsoft charges, but it's not nothing. Also, it's very possible the price drops lower at some point during Black Friday.

Cyber Monday: Xbox Accessory Deals

Games are huge these days, so if you're running low on storage on your Xbox Series X or S, you're far from alone. Xbox expansion cards are essentially NVME SSDs encased in a specialized Xbox-compatible shell. Unlike the more complex PS5 SSD installation process, which involves opening up the PS5 to access the SSD slot, the Seagate expansion card simply plugs into its dedicated port on the back of the Xbox. With this deal, you can add 1TB of storage that acts just like regular internal storage, for cheaper than normal.
