As a baseball simulator, MLB The Show 23 is barely different to last year’s iteration. Even by the standards of annual sporting franchises, this one comes across as having the lightest of touches to improve the experience. The commentary cut in with the same comments at the same moments that I expected them to, having spent dozens and dozens of…
I was almost going to skip past this year’s MLB the Show 23. Partly because I’m still playing last year’s edition, and… well, no, that was the only reason. I am still playing last year’s iteration and I don’t see any value in the iterative annual upgrades of sports games…

Squash meets block-breaking puzzles in C-Smash VRS, described as a complete reimagining of Sega’s iconic title. Prepare to be sore in the best of ways after playing this full-body experience at the end of space and time. VR isn’t normally something I’m interested in, but this actually sounds pretty fun…

Clap Hanz Golf is not a game you stealth launch on a console! Clap Hanz Golf is a game you make a big deal about, especially since Nintendo has really lost its way with Mario Golf and fans of that series desperately want something like this on their consoles too.…
