Some of the best PS1 games, or other games from that era, let you play with one or more friends in split-screen. This form of multiplayer has gotten less and less common as the generations have gone on but it isn’t fully abandoned yet. Most of the best PS5 games are single-player experiences or feature cross-platform online multiplayer, with only a handful still allowing you to hand a second controller to a friend and play together on the same console. These are mainly co-op games, but there are a few options for competitive gaming here as well. If you want…

For this reason, 2025 has plenty of comedies for audiences to enjoy in the new year, from high-concept pictures like Mickey 17 and A Minecraft Movie to more traditional comedies like Freakier Friday and The Naked Gun.

For the middle of January, Hulu has added a handful of movies from last year that didn’t make waves in theaters when they were released. Not every film was made to be a blockbuster, and this trio certainly wasn’t. But they are our picks for the three great Hulu movies that you need to stream this weekend. Our first two choices are both crime thrillers, but in different ways. The second pick kind of reminds of Lost in Translation, if Bill Murray’s character was a hit man. Finally, our remaining pick is so family-friendly that’s practically a Disney movie. My…
There’s no doubt that that Intel’s new Arc B580 is one of the best graphics cards you can buy. Clocking in at just $250, it’s a powerhouse GPU that delivers performance we normally only see out of GPUs north of $300. As you can read in my Intel Arc B580 review, it’s a fantastic option at 1080p and it scales up surprisingly well to 1440p. There’s just one problem — the Arc B580 is sold out everywhere. Intel clearly didn’t anticipate the demand, but you don’t have to succumb to scalpers or patiently wait while the Arc B580 comes back…
The Federal Trade Commission said in a staff report issued Friday that there are potential competitive issues in partnerships between big tech companies and generative AI developers — specifically, Microsoft’s backing of OpenAI and Amazon and Alphabet/Google’s partnerships with Anthropic. The FTC’s report sheds light on how partnerships by big tech firms can create lock-in, deprive start-ups of key AI inputs, and reveal sensitive information that can undermine fair competition, said FTC Chair Lina Khan in a statement. President-elect Donald Trump plans to replace Khan as chair. The report focuses on Microsoft, Amazon, and Google’s roles as cloud service providers…
U.S. prosecutors have formally linked the arrest of a serving U.S. Army soldier in December to a massive theft of U.S. phone records from AT&T and Verizon last year. Authorities arrested Cameron John Wagenius, a U.S. Army communications specialist, in Texas on December 20 following a brief two-page grand jury indictment accusing the U.S. serviceperson of two counts of unlawfully transferring confidential phone records. Wagenius was later extradited to Washington state. In a new court filing on Friday, U.S. prosecutors confirmed that the charges against Wagenius are related to the earlier indictment of two alleged hackers, Connor Moucka and John…
Seven-year-old electric vehicle startup Canoo has filed for bankruptcy and will “cease operations immediately.” The company is liquidating its assets in a Chapter 7 proceeding in the Delaware Bankruptcy Court. The company said in a press release published late Friday that it was “in discussions with foreign sources of capital” that proved unsuccessful, and also singled out an inability to secure funding from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Loan Program Office, which has been on a lending spree in the waning days of the Biden administration. Canoo said in its bankruptcy filing (and the filings for its subsidiaries) that it…
Gaming is a fantastic way to bring people together. A lot of the best Xbox Series X games tend to focus on multiplayer experiences, such as FPS games or co-op games. While online play and cross-platform games make it easier than ever to play with people across the world, only certain games are built to let you and a partner play together on the same console. Split-screen games only require you to have a spare controller to both join in on the fun side-by-side. These can be cooperative adventures, creative sandboxes, shooters, and everything in between. The only trouble is figuring…
