Review NBA 2K26 (Switch 2) - Brilliant B-Ball Has A Disappointing Debut On Switch 2
Hoops!...they did it again
As much as I can understand the derision from some quarters regarding NBA 2K26, FC 26, Madden — any of these big sports' games in their yearly, money-grubbing modern forms — I have, unfortunately, got a few of them to thank for several things that I enjoy in life these days.

Review LEGO 2K Drive (Switch) - A Fun, Colourful Racer But Not Quite Open-World Mario Kart
Follow the yellow brick road
The trouble with kart racers on Nintendo Switch is, well, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It's the best one, and it's not close. The challenge for developers, then, is not to create clones, but instead to diversify. LEGO 2K Drive makes a valiant effort to set itself apart, making great use of its titular licence to provide players...
