If you’re a millennial in this technology-forward world, it's probably easy to forget that a classic show such as "Gumby" even existed. The lovable, malleable boy may not have introduced stop-motion, but he and his creator certainly gave it a mass appeal through his lighthearted adventures and positive outlook.

It’s exceedingly rare for a game to be rated “adults only” by the Entertainment Software Ratings Board. To qualify, the game would need graphic content in the vein of pornography and violence. The majority of games rated adults only have made the list due to pornographic content, with only "Manhunt 2" and "Thrill Kill" joining the list for violence.

Early impressions are fickle to go by. When the first commercials for "Backstrom" hit, I initially believed that viewers were going to see something along the lines of Dr. House trading his cane for a cigar, detective’s badge and orange raincoat, all while maintaining the same self-centered, belittling ego.

Let’s face it: Binge-watching has become one of the main ways to watch shows. A 2013 study by Netflix said that 61 percent of its users binge regularly. With more shows popping up on the service and Amazon as well, those numbers are definitely increasing. Both sites have caught up to the trend, dropping full seasons of original shows without a second thought.

Damion Julien-Rohman: PC Player

The big Consumer Electronics Show came and went in Las Vegas last week and highlighted some unique gadgets for entertainment heads, auto fans and even stuff for the home. As it was an industry-only event, few commoners were likely able to sneak in to gawp at the latest 8K TV screens. Sad days for the hardcore tech geeks of the general public.

To be dead honest, my winter break consisted mostly of meeting up with friends and family over steaming bowls of gumbo and trying my hardest not to fall asleep on the drive from Phoenix to California as I passed through yet another endless desert plain. That said, I didn’t play too many games when I was back home – my 3DS even stayed inside of its case during the trip, which is rare considering how much I love the thing. However, when I came back to Arizona, the usual shoot, hack and slash affairs came back in full. Here’s what I played over the break.

No matter your preference of console, handheld or PC; no matter if you went AAA or indie — there was a lot to choose from in this year of gaming. We're now a year into the new systems (two for the Wii U), and the next generation is showing what it's capable of, for better or for worse. Although I personally couldn't dabble in the new wave of gaming systems, there were still a number of games this year that stood out — some amazing, some disappointing and some that I'm excited to get my hands on in the future. These are my top 10 games of the year.

Finals week is fast approaching and, if you're like me, studying can get pretty boring and lonely. Study groups are a good way to provide camaraderie among people trying to survive the same tidal wave of Scantrons and 10-page cumulative essays, but If you don't have a group studying can become dull, and your music library can only carry you so far.

I feel like we've been here before.

A small photographic get-together lands under the roof of the Combine Studios, located at 821 N. 3rd St. in Phoenix.

"Trout Fishing in America and Other Stories" is an unusual title for a gallery, but the mission behind it is both massively important and fascinating.

Ever wanted to dodge a flying robot worm while on a skyrocketing elevator, while also shooting and dodging other flying objects that want to kill you?

One dude, two robots and the worst movie of all time.

As a treat (no pun intended) for fans of Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling, through her website, Pottermore, has released a set of five new essays on Halloween, based on characters and locales the series' young wizard visited over the course of his seven years of exploits and adventures. They're not exactly stories, and for the more hardcore fans, they may be a bit short. But for an author who's already given readers a wide world to explore, it ought to be forgivable.

In the '70s, the Northlight Gallery was created by ASU graduate students as an outlet to display photography that other fine art galleries would not. Today, the quiet studio continues this tradition by playing host to "Family Matters: Revisited," a photography exhibit that seeks to portray the unique lives of eight families in states of vulnerability, closeness and even exploration.

As players of video games, we all know the feeling. The blood-boiling hatred of starting over again and again and again in a hard spot. You've been sniped five clicks away by a sniper in a losing "Call of Duty" match, or gotten your face kicked repeatedly by final bosses or been through the Dark Souls series.
