Sure, this is contingent on you never having used Woot before, or maybe finding someone in your life that hasn&#8217;t, but also has an Amazon Prime membership for free delivery (otherwise, it&#8217;s $5.99 to ship anything).<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">While this chance is the tiniest bit rarer on IGN, where I like to rattle on about how good Woot is every day, there is still a decent possibility that someone out there will be able to take advantage of an excellent deal like this.<\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"poll-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\"><\/section>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Both are eligible for <strong>$10 Switch &#8211;&gt; Switch 2 upgrades<\/strong>, which admittedly wipes out your savings immediately. But it&#8217;s still much better than buying full wack for the game, and then expected to pay an additional fee on top without all the discounts applied. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Or, if you prefer, pick up Sonic x Shadow Generations on Xbox, and you can pay just $1 without any additional upgrade fees required. I can personally confirm Xbox Series X consoles run this game like a dream, as it&#8217;s where I played through the game myself. I absolutely loved my time with it, as well.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Even without the HELLOTEN promo code, I still think $10.99 and $17.99 for these two excellent games isn&#8217;t a bad deal on Switch either\u2014it&#8217;s just not the <em><strong>no brainer<\/strong><\/em><em> <\/em>levels of discount that can be achieved with the newbies promo offer.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Here&#8217;s what IGN&#8217;s Jada Griffen had to say about Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds and Sonic x Shadow Generations in her reviews (spoiler, she loved them, and both got 9\/10s).<\/p>\n<h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\">Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds &#8211; IGN Review<\/h2>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds fires on all cylinders with a fantastic roster of 24 of my favorite hedgehogs, foxes, echidnas, and more. The lineup of 24 main tracks and 15 Crossworld tracks is the best-designed selection we&#8217;ve ever gotten in any Sonic racing game, and there is a generationally great soundtrack to accompany them. The racing itself feels fast, fantastic, and intuitive, with lots of options to tweak your stats to your preferred playstyle.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;There are plenty of modes that entertained my friends and me for hours, and CrossWorlds will probably be a regular staple of hangouts as more courses and characters are added over the coming months \u2013 though I do wish it had the option for splitscreen when playing online. The titular Crossworld mechanic is an awesome idea that keeps each race fresh, and a great way to potentially turn the tables on opponents thanks to a lengthy list of customization options.&#8221; <\/p>\n<h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\">Sonic x Shadow Generations &#8211; IGN Review<\/h2>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;Sonic X Shadow Generations takes an already excellent game and spring jumps it to new heights at a blistering pace by doubling up the campaign length with creative level design, fantastic bosses, plenty of collectibles, and an appreciable graphical upgrade.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;While the brand-new Shadow content isn&#8217;t necessarily long on its own, it adds a nice change of pace to the collection of all-time great Sonic stages Generations already contained, and there\u2019s an exciting new story that\u2019s filled in as you explore the overworld for collectibles, activities, and challenges.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;This bulked-up remaster soars far and above previous enhanced versions we&#8217;ve gotten in the Sonic franchise, and hopefully will be the gold standard Sega holds itself to when it decides to bring back other Sonic games from the past.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Robert Anderson is IGN&#8217;s Senior Commerce Editor and resident deals expert on games, collectibles, trading card games, and more.
