From the moment that Shadow the Hedgehog appeared in the first trailer for Sonic the Hedgehog 3, it seemed obvious that Sega's antihero was going to be the sequel's breakout character. But few could have predicted that it would mean Sonic 3's Build-a-Bear line would be disrupted by Shadow's resurgence.

As reported by Kotaku, Shadow's Build-a-Bear is sold out and going for ludicrous prices on eBay from $300 on the low end to $1,500 at the highest. Currently, the highest amount that anyone has actually paid on eBay for Shadow is just north of $600. That's still quite a mark up from the other currently available characters, as you can see below. Note that Tails is an online exclusive, while Sonic is available both online and in stores.

• Sonic Build-A-Bear -- $34
• Tails Build-A-Bear -- $34
• Tails Build-A-Bear with sound -- $42

Shadow has been removed from Build-a-Bear's site, and the company reportedly has no plans to restock the character. That seems counterintuitive, given the clear demand. And the only way to cool off the secondary market for Shadow Build-a-Bears would be if there were enough to meet the demand.

Path of Exile 2 is out now in early access ahead of its 1.0 launch in the future. Naturally, that means the game will change a lot over the months ahead. While the ARPG will feature three acts of the campaign, a portion of the 12 classes, and additional content, there's still more to come as time goes on. Though the early access version of Path of Exile 2 went live on December 6, there is a key stipulation to gaining access; the game will eventually be free-to-play, but to play during the early access period, you'll need to pay up.

You can find out how much you need to pay and other details about Path of Exile 2's launch in the guide below.

How much is Path of Exile 2 Early Access?Early access to Path of Exile 2 costs some money.

The early access version of Path of Exile 2 costs $30. That $30 is spent on an Early Access Supporter Pack, which gives you a Path of Exile 2 early access key as well as 300 Points and the extended digital soundtrack. The Points can be used to purchase items in the Path of Exile 2 shop and are technically a $30 value on their own.

After seven years on the market, 146 million systems, and more than 1 billion games sold, Nintendo is finally gearing up to announce its next piece of hardware. In this post, we're rounding up everything we know about the Switch 2--or whatever the next console is called--and what's been speculated about the next system from Nintendo. There has been quite a lot of news about the next Nintendo console lately. In fact, it appears the rumor mill is really heating up of late, though this doesn't necessarily mean an official announcement is coming up soon.

Nintendo has made multiple announcements lately, including an alarm clock and a music app, but there hasn't been any official word on the Switch 2.

2025 kicked off with a juicy rumor, as people claim to have their hands on the Switch 2's Joy-Cons. Images posted online claiming to be the new controllers suggest they will sport a similar design to the original, though they could be hiding a new feature or two. Another recent report detailed how many units the Switch 2 could sell in the US during its first year.

The Switch 2, or whatever Nintendo calls its next console, is expected to be announced soon and released later this year. But how many units will the system sell? According to Circana analyst Mat Piscatella, the Switch 2 will sell 4.3 million units in the US during 2025.

This assumes that the Switch 2 launches in the first half of 2025, Piscatella clarified. He added that the Switch should make up about one third of all video game consoles sold during 2025 in the US, excluding PC portable devices.

Piscatella went on to say that he expects the Switch 2 to face "hardware constraints" for several months after launch, and that the total number of units sold will depend on how many Nintendo can produce. Despite the popularity of a new Nintendo console, Piscatella said he continues to expect Sony's PlayStation 5 to be the No. 1 best-selling console in the US in 2025 based on unit sales.

The massive Palisades blaze in Southern California has prompted production to halt on a variety of projects in and around Los Angeles, including Fallout Season 2. The sophomore season was expected to resume filming today, January 8, following a holiday break, but that's no longer the case.

Film LA said in a statement that the Los Angeles County Fire Department instructed permit-holders that anyone filming in Altadena, La Crescenta, and La Canada Flintridge must pause.

Soundstages where a number of productions are being filmed are not directly at risk of the fires at this point, but local authorities have advised against non-essential activities, and filming for Hollywood projects falls into that category, it appears.

Marvel Rivals will soon kick off Season 1: Eternal Night Falls on January 10, and it wouldn't be a proper season start without a wide-range of balance changes to spice up the game's still in flux meta.

In a blog post, developer NetEase outlined some of its philosophy in regards to the game's upcoming buffs and nerfs, stating it looked to adjust certain heroes in the name of "enabling a broader roster to partake in more intricate gameplay, ensuring a richer, more engaging, and diverse gaming experience for all." It outlined a number of different team compositions and strategies players are employing, and overall seems happy with what it calls a "vibrant diversity of lineups." That lineup is certain to change with the addition of the Fantastic Four this season, with heroes Mr. Fantastic and the Invisible Woman joining the roster at the season's start.

As for the changes themselves, there are a number of buffs and nerfs to heroes in each role, with a significant number of changes to Duelist heroes. Popular damage dealers Hawkeye and Hela are being brought down a peg, with Hela having her health slightly decreased while Hawkeye will no longer be doing quite as much damage at longer ranges. On the flipside, Black Widow (one of the game's least-picked heroes according to NetEase), is getting a number of buffs. Moon Knight's ultimate ability will be more effective in Season 1, while Psylocke's will be a little less effective as it will have to cut through enemy shields as well. Storm is getting much-needed buffs, with increased projectile speed and damage, as well as more bonus health upon finishing her ultimate ability. Winter Soldier, another popular Duelist pick, is losing a little damage but gaining more survivability.

The Lenovo Legion Go S will become the first PC handheld not named Steam Deck to run on Valve's SteamOS when it launches this May. On paper, the $500 handheld is more powerful than the Steam Deck. That said, it doesn't have an OLED display or trackpads, so you'll have to weigh the pros and cons of the Steam Deck vs. Legion Go S to make your choice.

If you want a handheld running on SteamOS, that is. If you're interested in a Windows portable, you can get the Legion Go S sooner. Slated to release in the coming weeks for $730, the high-end Lenovo Legion Go S with Windows has double the RAM and storage space as the SteamOS edition and is available to preorder at Best Buy.

Lenovo Legion Go S (Windows Version) $730 | Releases February 14

At CES 2025, Lenovo said the Windows version of the Legion Go S would be available this month, but Best Buy's listing has the new handheld marked for February 14.

The Legion Go S is fitted with the new AMD Ryzen Z2 Go chip, 32GB RAM, and a 1TB SSD. It has an 8-inch 1920 x 1200 LCD display with 120Hz variable refresh rate. Other features include adjustable RGB light rings around the analog sticks, two back buttons, one trackpad, and a pair of levers on the back that modify trigger tension.

Unlike the original Legion Go, this one doesn’t offer detachable gamepads or a kickstand, opting instead for a solid, streamlined design built specifically for handheld play. Lenovo increased the battery capacity from 49.2Wh to 55Wh with the Legion Go S.

Lenovo will also launch a second Windows configuration in May for $600. This lower-priced model has 16GB RAM instead of 32GB. Preorders aren't live for the $600 model just yet.

Preorder at Best Buy Lenovo Legion Go S (SteamOS Version) $500 | Releases in May

The SteamOS edition isn't available to preorder yet, but it'll launch in May for $500. The Legion Go S will be the first third-party handheld that uses Valve's Steam Deck operating system. This model will receive the same updates as Valve’s Steam Deck. That means you won’t have to worry about Valve abandoning SteamOS on the Legion Go S, as the team is treating SteamOS as a unified platform regardless of which handheld you’re playing on.

While it retains the Ryzen Z2 Go chip and the 8-inch 1200p display, the SteamOS edition is limited to 16GB RAM and a 512GB SSD. You can upgrade your SSD or expand the storage capacity via microSD.

For comparison, the Steam Deck starts at $399 for the 256GB model with a 7-inch LCD display. The 512GB model with a 7.4-inch OLED display costs $549, and the 1TB OLED edition goes for $649.

If you opt for the Legion Go S, you'll get a faster processor and a larger 8-inch screen with higher resolution--1200p compared to the Steam Deck's 800p resolution. That said, the Legion Go S uses an LCD panel, whereas the 512GB and 1TB Steam Deck models have better OLED screens.

Lenovo went with a more conventional control layout with offset sticks, while the Steam Deck's two sticks, D-pad, and face buttons are essentially aligned. The layout admittedly looks odd, but the Steam Deck is a lot comfier than it looks. Valve's handheld has four remappable back triggers, while Lenovo's new handheld only has two. The Steam Deck also has two large trackpads, whereas the Legion Go S has one small pad. Adjustable trigger tension is unique to the Legion Go S.

With these differences, it'll be interesting to see how the Legion Go S stacks up against the Steam Deck. Expect to learn more about the handheld as we get closer to its May release date. We'll update this article when preorders are available.

The Legion Go S isn’t the only upcoming handheld from Lenovo, as the brand is also working on a Legion Go 2. It’ll arrive sometime this year (an exact date is yet to be announced) and features a more powerful Ryzen Z2 Extreme chip, an 8.8-inch, 144Hz OLED display with VRR, and a 74Wh battery.
