Nintendo has released its own technical specifications for the Switch 2 console hybrid, but it's fair to say that the detail is somewhat selective - and that's OK.

Anssi Hyytiäinen, Remedy's lead designer on FBC: Firebreak, and studio veteran of more than 25 years, is "one of those really dangerous designers". This is how his colleague, the game's director Mike Kayatta, puts it to me in a conversation at Remedy's predictably stylish HQ in Espoo, on the quiet, grey outskirts of Finland's capital Helsinki. Kayatta means it as a compliment, although with maybe just a tinge of truth... Read more ›

But naturally at a time when live-service, multiplayer-only games - particularly ones from studios... Read more ›

The best thing I ever read about Jack Reacher - and I'm sure I've mentioned this before - is that the hero of Lee Child's books doesn't solve crimes or right wrongs. What he does is kill the plot. The plot comes at him in the form of baddies and deadly set-pieces and locked doors, and he just punches and shoots a way through it until there's nothing left. Read... Read more ›

Remember the discourse surrounding a proposed Switch Pro? Rumours of an upgraded Switch model began as early as 2018, but it wasn't until 2020 that the Pro's attributes including "more computing power and 4K high definition graphics" were reported on by Bloomberg.
