Setting our mental budget to $20 a game, the titles below are the ones we think are more than worth the price. Some are old, some are new, but importantly they’re all enjoyable in their own unique ways.

And we always encourage you to “keep watching,” when a new season of a show is about to arrive. Whether you need to re-watch that show to remember what happened last time, or you’ve always put off watching a show that’s about to get new episodes, there’s always a good reason to binge-watch. Because once you know you like a show and you’re caught up, you can watch the new season along with everyone else and be a part of the conversation, be it with friends or family or acquaintances online....
Hardly anyone mentions For All Mankind. The space drama is somehow still flying under the radar, despite glowing reviews and a general agreement (opens in new tab) that the season 2 finale was one of the best episodes of television of the past five years (and possibly all time). Critics agree as well, as it has a Rotten Tomatoes score of 91% (opens in new tab) for the whole series....
Regardless if you’re working from home or at the office, carrying an external hard drive in your backpack or pocket gives you continuous access to your files. The same is also true if you need to back up your computer regularly. A large HDD-based external hard drive will do the trick for that, but if you need to create a second backup for peace of mind and keep that in a separate location, an SSD-based drive will suit you....
Because you’ll inevitably find yourself out of the house with low battery life, you’ll need a reliable portable charger with you to keep your electronics going. Not having one could prove to be extremely inconvenient. We’ve done a battery (pun intended) of tests on some of the best and most highly rated portable chargers on the market. To that end, we’ve pulled from both big brands and popular competitors. Our testing involves seeing how fast devices charge and how many full phone chargers each power bank stores....
ISPs are known to throttle network connections, and this can be hell for any game that requires lightning reflexes. Network throttling is when your connection is slowed down by your provider when it detects certain activity, with the main culprits being streaming, torrenting and, you guessed it, online gaming. What’s more, though, plenty of people use their PS4 for streaming TV and movies. A PS4 VPN can unblock a huge amount of content that might be unavailable in your country, including overseas Netflix titles and entire services like BBC iPlayer and Hulu....
However, depending where you head to, you will be limited on what you can watch. And that’s exactly where a Roku VPN comes in. Connecting the best VPN on your Roku device isn’t entirely straightforward. That’s because, despite supporting a huge range of apps and channels, it doesn’t do the same for virtual private networks. Likewise, picking your next Roku VPN that best suits your needs can be pretty hard as there are tons of providers to choose from....

Premiering last week (Friday, October 7), The Midnight Club has already climbed into the streamer’s most-watched list currently ranking in the No. 2 spot only behind Dahmer, which just become Netflix’s second most popular English-language show of all time. Flanagan’s latest horror effort is also enjoying a strong critical reception and its first episode broke the Guinness World Record for the most jump-scares in an episode of a TV show with 21 terrifying moments....
Right now, the 13.6" MacBook Air M2 (256GB) is on sale for $1,049 at Best Buy (opens in new tab). That’s a savings of $150 compared to the laptop’s full retail price of $1,199. This is the new lowest price ever for the MacBook Air M2 and easily qualifies as one of the best Black Friday Apple deals currently available. At Tom’s Guide, we’re big fans of the MacBook Air M2....
For a limited time, this Lenovo IdeaPad 3 14” Chromebook is on sale for $99 at Walmart (opens in new tab). That’s a saving of $130 compared to its full retail price of $229, and even better you don’t need to be a Walmart Plus member in order to score this deal, it’s open to everybody. It shouldn’t come as a huge surprise to learn that this Lenovo Chromebook is not a powerhouse machine....
In at No. 6 — below the Dave Bautista-led Final Score and above the Jason Statham-led Wild Card — is Leave No Trace, which just arrived on Netflix two days ago (July 4). It’s from 2018, and we won’t judge you if it flew under your radar (at least one Tom’s Guide staffer admits they’d never heard of it either). But other staffers rave about it, and that combined with a 100 percent Rotten Tomatoes (opens in new tab) score means it’s practically a lock for our best Netflix movies list (we expect it will show up there soon)....
Right now Senior Year, a new comedy starring Rebel Wilson as a 37-year-old woman who returns to high school after waking from a two-decades-long coma, is dominating the streamer’s most-watched list. It also racked up a colossal 56 million viewing hours in its first 48 hours on the platform. While the critics haven’t been quite so enthusiastic, it’s clear that Netflix subscribers are loving the raunchy movie. However, just days before, another film dropped onto the streaming service that deserves more recognition....
The same could end up being true of the latest Netflix film to rocket into the streamer’s most-watched movie list, Beauty. Released last week (Wednesday, June 29) this drama comes from director Andrew Dosunmu and stars Gracie Marie Bradley in the titular role. And while plenty of people are watching it — it currently sits in the no.4 spot on Netflix U.S. — the critical reaction is quite poor....
While it’s too soon to say whether or not Gemma and Luca will make it (or whether she’ll ever tell him who her dad is), we can take a look back at the finalists of the past few seasons. Some are still happily together, others have walked down the aisle, and there have even been some Love Island babies. Of course, there’s also been public breakups, crossover romances from different seasons, and a whole lot of ‘muggy’ behavior....
In an announcement today (May 9), the White House announced it was moving to lower prices of high speed internet for millions of families in America. As part of this program, 20 internet companies have agreed to provide discounted service to low-income households. With this commitment, high speed internet reaching 100 Mbps will cost no more than $30 for a month, and $75 a month in tribal areas, with no additional fees and no data caps....
The most notable immediate change is increased iCloud integration with Windows 11, which could be a huge quality-of-life improvement for iPhone users. iCloud on Windows 11 will now automatically sync with the Windows 11 Photos app, rather than being limited to File Explorer. We did not get a specific launch date, but based on what Microsoft has said we expect this update to occur soon if it has not already been rolled out....
As for the card itself, SummerSlam was not supposed to be like this. Brock Lesnar’s insertion into the main event was something of a last-second decision, after Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes were both injured out. The Beast Incarnate is filling that spot in a Last Man Standing match that WWE is promoting as the final match the two will ever have together. Meanwhile, Bianca Belair is looking to make up for last year, as SummerSlam 2021 saw Becky Lynch return in a surprise moment and then beat Belair in 26 seconds....
