The original Hot Wheels Unleashed was a breath of fresh air when it was released in 2021. Upon initially playing it in a preview build, it was jaw-dropping due to how great it was as a pure arcade-style racing game experience and it was by far the greatest game that not only Milestone had ever made, but the greatest Hot Wheels racer ever.

Sonic Origins Plus Brings Much Needed Value to the Collection

When Sega launched Sonic Origins last year, the collection’s existence didn’t make all that much sense.

Further, Sonic Originsoffered little outside of those gamesbesides some minor visual upgrades, some digital window dressing and a smattering of side content....
