Feature | Basketball on Nintendo Switch Sports is lovely mean-spirited fun
Dunk!
Basketball's just arrived on Nintendo Switch Sports. A new sport means a new arena, so the most important question is: what's the new restaurant like? Reader, it seems lovely. Behind the court there's an elegant arc of a building, a kind of restrained Zaha Hadid number. Trailing plants hang down from above and at one end there's a glass-fronted cafe lit by glowing amber overheads. At the other there's a deck with seating exposed to the balmy skies. Sure, you risk getting a Spalding Size 7 in your cortado, but them's the breaks.

Digital Foundry | Assassin's Creed Mirage is an impressive port - but too demanding for iPhone 15 Pro
However, Capcom's Resident Evil 7 fares better.
Apple has been feeding iPhone and iPad owners a steady diet of big-budget console ports, from Resident Evil Village, Resident Evil 4 and Death Stranding to this month's tentpole release of Assassin's Creed Mirage. Mirage is the last of Apple's game announcements from the iPhone 15 event last September, and promises a fully-fledged version of what is a good-looking and technically accomplished AC title. That said, it comes with somewhat muted expectations given the inconsistent technical quality of those prior iPhone releases. How does Mirage fare on iPhone hardware, and what lessons can we take from the recent spate of console ports - including Capcom's new rendition of Resident Evil 7?

Digital Foundry | Is a VRR TV becoming more important for console gaming?
A 'nice to have' feature is a game-changer on key titles.
In this week's DF Direct Weekly, we spend some time discussing the state of console performance and increasing importance of VRR (variable refresh rate) support for current-gen hardware in delivering a smoother, more consistent level of performance.
