Mario Kart World is an impressive technical and artistic accomplishment, and it’s a ton of fun to boot. World is the best racing game I’ve played in a very long time.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was a nigh-on perfect racer, so can Nintendo trump it with Mario Kart World on Switch 2. Here's @oliemack with the Digital Foundry tech review: youtu.be/4162BZMMLLM
The Switch 2 may use dated tech, but excellent efficiency and DLSS make it more than the sum of its parts. This is a great platform for the coming generation of Nintendo games.
Two weeks in the making, here's our two hour review for Nintendo Switch 2. It's our most detailed hardware test yet. We're impressed with the system - but the display is a clear disappointment. youtu.be/9uQ5CMfFc7c
Arkham Knight on Switch is unacceptable. Terrible performance, poor visual quality, and game-breaking glitches. I’ll have a video on it and the other Arkham ports next week.
Valve's overhauled 2026 Steam Machine is a polished, finely crafted console-like PC system. It's a great little home entertainment box - and it should give Microsoft a lot to worry about.
We went hands-on with Steam Machine and Steam Frame. Two videos in the pipeline, kicking off right now with this detailed discussion on Valve's beautiful PC/console hybrid - and the new Steam Controller: youtu.be/2rv83LgXiN0
Nintendo might be charging for 'Switch 2 Editions' but the firm has also released a range of FREE upgrade patches for key Switch 1 games running on the new console - and the results are superb. @oliemack and @dark1x compare notes: youtu.be/0L8GMsUtl9k
The PS5 Pro is a very impressive piece of console kit - and I had the pleasure of going hands on with it last week. Join I and @digitalfoundry for a detailed discussion of all the software that stood out at Sony's presentation.
We've been hands-on with 11 PS5 Pro games, we've got new capture and we've spoken with developers about how they're using the power of Sony's new console. There's a lot to great stuff to get through here, and @oliemack is your guide: youtu.be/JQs3LRIVEyE
FF7 Rebirth gets a gigantic image quality boost on PS5 Pro, with ultra-detailed 4K imagery at a stable 60fps. The results aren't flawless, but it's a huge improvement over the base PS5 console.
We had a chance to check out seven minutes of broadcast quality Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth PS5 Pro footage. Big image quality improvements over base PS5's perf mode, improved performance - and even comparisons vs the 30fps graphics mode have some surprises: youtu.be/fJZ6ndDACG8
Some weird stuff going on at Nintendo. Looks like they've changed their US website to no longer mention VRR support for TV play? Only HDR and 120Hz support get a call-out.
Today on Digital Foundry: Monster Hunter Wilds on PlayStation 5 Pro. Extra horsepower and PSSR deliver the best console version of the game: youtu.be/H4HloDRmvJs
The PS5 Pro is a compelling piece of enhanced current-gen kit. While some Pro patches are better than others, there’s a lot to like here for enthusiast gamers.
Our final PlayStation 5 Pro video review is now live! Hardware impressions, PS4 image enhancement + PS5 Game Boost tested, power consumption, CPU tests, RT, PSSR and more! Almost 100 minutes of PS5 Pro analysis: youtu.be/MzdV8lR82N4
RTGI massively improves AC Shadows’ visual presentation - and PS5 Pro is the only console with the technique in all modes. It’s a stark visual win for Sony’s enhanced console.
Big improvements to draw distance on Akiva in the new Star Wars Outlaws patch - looks much better now! Seems like the day 1 code was bugged. (Ignore image quality/performance as this is internally recorded footage.)
