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.

"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?

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.

The "Borderlands" series has always had one unifying mantra: shoot and loot. Shoot bandits, robots and monsters and procure loot from either aforementioned baddies or by other means. The game offers the option to play as four different “heroes,” a.k.a. Vault Hunters, each with their own abilities and skills to upgrade as you play along. This was the series that created the first-person-shooter/role-playing-game genre.

The 5th Annual Arizona Taco Festival was nestled on the Salt River Fields in Scottsdale, a short walk from the quiet training grounds of the Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies. My getup — a gray ASU shirt, green button up and slightly skinny jeans, did zero to combat the 90 degree weather. Others were styled a little more smartly than I; similar to styles seen at Coachella but not as wild as those could get.

Long known for its quick 2-D action and busy environments, the "Strider" series has a long and interesting history in gaming, originating in arcades in 1989. The hero, Hiryu, almost always had one goal in those games: to destroy the evil Grand Master and foil his plots for world domination, all while hacking robots, soldiers and robot gorillas to shreds.

"The Judge," starring Robert Downey, Jr. and Robert Duvall is, well, a thing. It exists. It's in theaters right now for your viewing pleasure.

All stages, all items, all the time. An old friend of mine had the game system — if there was a Smash, we were there.

Watching an orchestra perform is tantamount to seeing a living breathing entity, one made up of wood, strings, metals and rubber.

The sequel to the martial arts epic has finally been announced 14 years after the original. But some aren't happy about how it's coming out.

If you're either fashion-forward or working toward being fashion-forward, you've likely run into one of two scenarios. One is that your local shopping centers have the most meager of offerings, and half the stuff there looks like knockoffs of a more high-quality brand. The other is that said meager offerings can cut deeply into a budget.
