cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-12-15 15:00:03

After a few hours playing the upcoming Battlefield 6, it's clear the game is designed to be a mea culpa to fans: Trust us, we're bringing back the Battlefield you remember. At a massive preview event in Los Angeles, I sat down to play a slice of the game's multiplayer mode -- and came off it suitably whelmed with a mix of raucous moments and tedious deaths. Ultimately, it feels like it will deliver the kind of big team battles players have been craving, with technical flourishes that amplify the

gizmodo.com Justin Carter 2025-12-15 00:15:48

This fall, the Sam Raimi Spider-Man trilogy is coming back to theaters, and they won’t be alone. In the weeks and months ahead, fellow re-releases will include Tim Burton’s Batman duology and 1995’s Casper. In the former’s case, both 1989’s Batman and 1992’s Batman Returns will be a special, one-night event on August 25. Over 160 Dolby Cinema at AMC Theaters locations will play the two movies, and it looks like AMC’s putting enough enough distance between them for you to watch them in one go. A

Peak Energy shipped out its first sodium-ion battery energy storage system, and the New York-based company says it’s achieved a first in three ways: the US’s first grid-scale sodium-ion battery storage system; the largest sodium-ion phosphate pyrophosphate (NFPP) battery system in the world; and the first megawatt-hour scale battery to run entirely on passive cooling – no fans, pumps, or vents.
