Star Wars: Battlefront Doesn’t Support Splitcreen Co-Op on PC
Star Wars: Battlefront won’t support splitscreen cooperative gameplay on PC, Electronic Arts confirmed on the the game's community blog.
The game’s non-competitive Missions mode supports offline and online co-op, and only supports local splitscreen co-op on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One .
Battlefront community manager Mathew Everett revealed in the FAQ post that in the Walker Assault mode players can spawn inside a vehicle after collecting vehicle power ups scattered around the map. These vehicle power ups must be used within a certain amount of time. While playing Missions does not award multiplayer career experience, it does provide players with credit rewards for unlocks.

Nolan politely asked that everyone put their phones away and that no one film the footage being shown since it was intended just for those who took the time to attend the Q&A panel. And as far as we can tell, people abided. So we'll just briefly describe the screened footage for you.

Until Dawn is a Big, Broad Homage to Horror
30 years ago, you’d be hard pressed to find a horror movie that didn’t focus on attractive teenagers getting cut up into little pieces as punishment for their rebellious attitudes and sexual proclivities. Though the slasher film in earnest eventually ran out of steam at the end of the ‘80s, it’s since found success in throwbacks and parodies; affectionate nods to a time when jocks were jocks, nerds were nerds, and everyone desired the pretty blond cheerleader.
Supermassive Games’ Until Dawn plays with familiar slasher movie beats in big, broad strokes. Its group of teens are familiar - the guys are obnoxious and wear letter jackets, the girls are petty and narcissistic - and all are driven primarily by their sex drives. In my two-hour playthrough I found them pretty exhausting, but I’m inclined to think that’s the point. After all, something out there in the woods is going to punish them for being very bad boys and girls.
Tekken Boss Updates Status of Tekken x Street Fighter
Tekken boss Katsuhiro Harada has provided an update on the status of the long dormant Tekken x Street Fighter.

NBC Moving Hannibal and Aquarius to Saturday Nights
NBC is moving Hannibal and Aquarius from their respective Thursday timeslots to Saturday nights, effective immediately. The network made the move in order to "appease affiliates not happy with their numbers," according to Wall Street Journal's Joe Flint on Twitter.
While another blow for fans, the move sadly isn't too shocking for Hannibal; the series has already been cancelled by NBC and continues to perform poorly in its Thursday night slot. However, the shift is much more surprising for Aquarius, seeing as the Charlie Manson-themed series was already renewed by NBC for a second season. NBC touted the show's viewership online -- all the episodes were released at once, Netflix-style -- in their renewal, but having the show moved to what is considered a network TV wasteland on Saturdays raises questions about the disparity in viewership for Aquarius on the network itself vs. online.
