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...

Yu-Gi-Oh's Next Set Looks Packed With Elden Ring, Dark Souls, and Other FromSoftware References

-

The next Yu-Gi-Oh trading card set looks packed with Elden Ring, Dark Souls, and other FromSoftware references, with monsters seemingly based on the likes of the Fire Keeper, Godfrey, and more.

As reported by DiceBreaker, the Phantom Nightmare Yu-Gi-Oh set arrives February 3 and fans have noticed that certain promotional material released by Konami bears a striking resemblance to the beloved series of FromSoftware video games.

"The events of an ancient battle play out over and over again as a brand new world premiere Pyro theme lights up the field in Phantom Nightmare," reads the official synopsis. "Make sure to pick up Maze of Millennia to get your copies of Bonfire so you’ll be ready to try it out when Phantom Nightmare launches in February."

Ancient battle playing out over and over is very Dark Souls, which is all about linking the fire in perpetuity. Pyro and Bonfire also tick plenty of boxes (alongside a new Ashened archtype), and artwork released by Konami depcting a slightly cosmic looking witchy character with a crown over her eyes (above) is reminding fans of the Fire Keeper.

Reddit user MalefixTekX has pointed out a bunch of other references. "Vados shooting a laser is an obvious reference to Midir," they said, referencing the Dark Souls 3 boss (in the second piece of artwork above). "He even has similar battle damaged wings and an extra pair of them like Midir."

They also liken the third piece of artwork to Andre the blacksmith and Gwyn, Lord of Sunlight, but most of all to Godfrey, the First Elden Lord in Elden Ring, who has a very a similar armour set and hair style.

The Bonfire-containing Maze of Millennia set mentioned by Konami focuses on bringing cards from the anime to the real Yu-Gi-Oh trading card game, even ones that debuted more than two decades ago. This includes the Eye of Illusion, a card used by classic villain Maximillion Pegasus in Episode 2 of the Yu-Gi-Oh: Dual Monsters anime.

Yu-Gi-Oh is as popular as ever more than 20 years later, with fans continuing to play in person and digitally in one of the many games. The accurate simulation game of Master Duel was released in 2022 and proved incredibly successful, with tens of millions of downloads in the first few months.
