I realize that's a bit heavy on the pessimism, but anyone who searches as much as I do will get what I'm throwing down. It can be exhausting. It also means I have to continue refining my search to find what I'm looking for. And, given most often what I'm querying is for research purposes (either for an article or a book), I need to be as efficient as possible. I'm too busy to spend my time on deep dives down various rabbit holes to find what I need. That's where Opera's Aria comes in. Let me give you an easy example.In…

Each year, the holidays are a time for reflection. I’ve been looking back at all of the articles I’ve written and the games I played the most as a result. When looking at my PlayStation Wrap-Up 2023 results, I was surprised that Luminous Productions and Square Enix’s controversial magic RPG Forspoken was among my most played PS5 games. Fittingly enough, Forspoken takes place during Christmastime, as that’s when Ella Balinska’s Frey is whisked away to the world of Athia in an Alice in Wonderland-like manner. The…

This is a bit crusher, finally bringing distortion to the synthesizer. The OP-1 Field and its lower-powered sibling have always been known for a stellar effects lineup, but these instruments have never had a bit crusher or any real way to add color via distortion. As an avid…

Anybody remember when Bethesda said we could expect a PS5 and Xbox Series upgrade of Fallout 4 sometime in the future? It’s understandable if you’ve forgotten. It was kind of brushed to the side, but now the studio has a (sort of) update. In a recent post on the official Twitter account, Bethesda has thanked fans for their patience in waiting for the Fallout 4 next-gen update. However, the developer says it needs “a bit more time” so don’t expect it any day now. Thank you for your patience with us as we work on the…

Miles Teller and Zac Efron met while filming the bromance comedy That Awkward Moment. Almost a decade has passed since they worked on the rom-com with Michael B. Jordan, but the two are still great friends to the point that The Iron Claw actor asked his pal to give a speech for him before receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. What the famed actor got from his former co-star was a hilarious roast that I think High School Musical fans will get a kick out of.The High School Musical trilogy are Disney Channel…
