Two Point Museum review – The memory of Theme Park and Theme Hospital lives on, as the latest Two Point business sim lets you play as Marcus Brody rather than Indiana Jones.

Is even Mario Kart 9 a given? (YouTube) Limited timeI don’t think a June release date for the Nintendo Switch 2 makes sense for any reason other than Nintendo are trying to avoid something, aka GTA 6. I certainly haven’t heard any other explanation, unless they were aiming for March, like the first Switch, and this is just the closest they could get. Maybe it’s a combination of the two. It does make me…

Anton Du Beke’s hips were swinging. His cheeky chappy smile was on full beam. His arms swooped up into the air in one gracefully smooth manner. The scene may have you thinking I was rewatching one of his Strictly Come Dancing routines on YouTube, perhaps his Paso Doble with Ruth Langsford or Viennese Waltz with Emma Barton, but actually, Anton, 58, was doing something else entirely. While his love for dance is pretty obvious…
Astro Bot – Mario’s new rival (Sony Interactive Entertainment) Double the pleasureI really don’t think Nintendo has much to learn from Astro Bot. All the 3D Mario games sell far more than Sony’s games and the only one that Astro Bot is better than is Super Mario Sunshine. For my view I think that the next game should try and make itself as different as possible to Mario, because the déjà vu is the worst…
