Make me a superstar. Hello and welcome to our guide on Sonic Superstars, Sega’s latest entry in the long-running platforming franchise. Here, we’ll be running you through where to locate each Chaos Emerald and explain each Emerald Power. We also explain how to get coins the easy way, how to turn into Super Sonic, and…
Speed up, superstar. If you’d have told us that two of gaming’s most iconic rivals, Mario and Sonic, would be going head-to-head with two brand-new platformers in the space of a week, we’d have said you were probably off your rocker. What’s more, if you’d have said that Sega’s latest entry, Sonic Superstars, would turn…

As reported a few days ago, Counter-Strike 2 players using Radeon Anti-Lag+ technology in the latest GPU drivers were finding that it didn’t help matters at all. In fact, it resulted in accounts being banned as Valve’s anti-cheat system didn’t like the latency reduction system. AMD’s response to the whole problem? Yank the drivers off…
All we need now is some SG-1000 products too. Earlier this year, we told you about the fashion retailer Zara’s strange decision to start selling bumbags based on the Japanese variant of the Sega Saturn controller. Well now, it appears that the company is at it again, releasing an officially-licensed phone case that is modelled…
Riot’s approach to League of Legends lore has always been a bit… flexible. Champion backstories have been repeatedly retconned, and the entire premise of the game has changed a couple of times since launch (remember when it was a literal sport?). More recently, as the Runeterra universe has expanded with books, spin-off games, and the…
Epic has announced a foolproof plan to tempt devs and publishers to put their back catalogues onto the Epic Games Store: throw money at them. Announced yesterday, the Now On Epic program will offer game makers (and licence holders) 100% of the revenue generated by older games they put on Epic for the first six…
“Behold the 5-ton Mega-Karlach,” states the deservedly proud lesser_panjandrum on the Baldur’s Gate 3 subreddit as they post up a thrice-enlarged tiefling like they’re showing off a genetically engineered golden retriever. To be fair, replace “genetically” with “magically” and that’s almost what’s happening here. TIL Enlarge effects can stack. Behold the 5-ton Mega-Karlach from r/BaldursGate3…
I’ll make no bones about it: I preferred Grand Theft Auto 4 to GTA 5. The latter is great and all but I never got over the more grounded and gritty take of GTA 4 and in particular its tragic central cast, defined and trapped by their lives in the criminal underworld. GTA 4 had…
Romances in RPGs like Cyberpunk 2077 are… let’s call them awkward. Most of the time, this isn’t on purpose. We’re supposed to feel cool, like Commander Shepard the bonafide badass space ranger, not some Joe Shmuck who strikes out and uses “xD” in text messages. In reality, it’s so hard to make a game character…
