19 h. ago Drag x Drive review – wheelchair basketball that might give you wrist cramp

Nintendo Switch 2; NintendoNintendo’s latest sports game showcases its Joy-Con upgrades but sacrifices playability in the processWhen a new console is released, you can always expect at least one first-party game designed specifically to showcase its novel features. The PlayStation 5 had Astro’s Playroom, the Steam Deck had Aperture Desk Job, and for the Nintendo Switch 2 there’s Drag x Drive. Here, you play competitive wheelchair basketball with the Joy-Con 2’s new mouse mode (which lets you control a game by pushing it along a desk like a computer mouse) – rolling, jumping and shooting in hectic three v three bouts. A solid exhibition of a controller upgrade, to be sure, but Drag x Drive struggles to harness the high-octane nature of the real-world sport, instead delivering a shallow impersonation.As a basketball game, Drag x Drive demands that you spend the majority of your time shooting hoops and racing around the court, each Joy-Con controlling a single wheel on your avatar’s c...

41 h. ago Christy review – outstanding actors and Cork landmarks shine in a moving and funny Irish drama

Diarmuid Noyes and Danny Power play two brothers finding their feet after time in care in a social-realist film with heart and humourHere is a terrifically warm and involving Irish movie about two brothers from Cork’s northside; it is moving and funny, with plenty of affectionate shots of the iconic Knocknaheeny water tower looming futuristically over the skyline like a 70s spaceship or one of eastern Europe’s Soviet-era war memorials. Screenwriter Alan O’Gorman and first-time director and story co-creator Brendan Canty deliver a social-realist film with heart, featuring outstanding performances of sympathy and strength, developed from Canty’s 2019 short film of the same name. It’s tough, but capable of delicacy and succeeds in conveying something very difficult to achieve without sentimentality: love of your home town. You can come for the drama and stay for the cheeky hip-hop sequence over the closing credits, a final stretch of sweetness and fun that the movie has more than earne...

4 d. ago ‘Don’t lose those stupid points’: Youri Tielemans on Aston Villa lessons, Emery and aiming high

The team’s outstanding player last season is determined to help break the club’s near 30-year trophy droughtThe smile on Youri Tielemans’s face widens as he discusses the summer Unai Emery visited him in Quorn, the Leicestershire village he has called home since arriving in England six years ago. “The initial conversation was about my ideas as a player, where I wanted to play and how I saw myself and I think he quite liked me because he came back a second time,” Tielemans says, laughing. “It was really about understanding each other. And I think we clicked the first time we met.”Fast-forward two years and Tielemans, who joined Aston Villa as a free agent after leaving Leicester, has established himself as an indispensable cog in Emery’s machine. Tielemans has been considered a classy midfielder since making his Champions League debut for Anderlecht aged 16 and has proved a dependable force for Villa, an intelligent operator whether sniffing danger or shifting possession.
