In 2018, Obsidian Entertainment was acquired by Microsoft and “Avowed” is its first big AAA game under the Xbox Game Studios banner. The studio is best known for creating sprawling RPGs like “Fallout: New Vegas” and “The Outer Worlds,” where players have many choices on how they want to design their main character, approach quests, and tackle the world. “Avowed” very much has those same qualities. It’s a dense fantasy RPG filled with memorable side quests and character companions, along with quite a bit of combat variety that keeps gameplay fresh. “Avowed” takes place in Eora, the same world as…

“Balance is key,” says Mr. Miyagi in the original “Karate Kid,” and it’s an ethos that Netflix (and formerly YouTube Red)’s long-running cult continuation “Cobra Kai” has long struggled to achieve. The fact that a show like this—sprung from a scrappy but novel idea from creators Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg to flip the legacyquel trend on its head—has managed six entire seasons of television, in a streaming era where most show struggle to get three, is like catching a fly with chopsticks: a borderline miracle. But “Cobra Kai”‘s cult success has also been its grandest challenge, struggling…
Artist Khaled Sabsabi was abruptly dropped as Australia’s 2026 Venice Biennale representative after a high-profile publication raised questions about a past work by him depicting a Hezbollah leader. The announcement was made by Creative Australia, the pavilion’s organizer, after work hours in Australia and did not outright mention the controversy. It described the decision to nix Sabasabi’s pavilion—which was announced just six days ago—as a “unanimous” one and said the decision applied to the exhibition’s “artistic team,” including curator Michael Dagostino. Creative Australia promised a review of the selection process. Related Articles “Creative Australia is an advocate for freedom of…
I’m always discussing and identifying some of the super powers that great artists have in their arsenal of artistic weapons. Ally Morgan is one of those artists who is lucky enough to have multiple superpowers, but in my opinion, first and foremost is her superpower to visually transmit ideas onto a visual artwork in such a way that the idea stops the viewer, mesmerizes the frontal lobe (which in men doesn’t fully develop until their 30s – sorry dudes) and reaches deep into the solar plexus of the mind.That’s a lot of art lingo… Ally says:”I’ve long been captivated by…

Another example of why artists need to have thick skins! I’ve been rejected from an outdoor art festival — one which I’ve done for many years, and one for which I have won multiple awards in the past, and one for which I was one of the jurors in the past!But… we must all understand that jurors are people, and thus subjective – and the three jurors this year (Jordan Brown from the Visual Arts Center of Richmond, Nicola Charles, who worked at the Rebecca Hossack Art Gallery and whom I knew from the many years that I’ve been at the Affordable Art…
Justine Wheeler Koons, the wife of artist Jeff Koons, will have her own solo show of artworks at Salon 94, opening on February 19. The show, titled “Myth” will include 12 glazed stoneware sculptures, all produced in 2024 or earlier this year. One of the works was described by Salon 94 founder Jeanne Greenberg Rohatyn as “a blue torso of Venus—irresistibly covered in carved replicas of toys, shaped cookies, and beads.” In an essay by William J. Simons, Wheeler Koons spoke of the works in the exhibition as “a personal archaeology, a journey to uncover what lies within, hidden beneath…
The Final Jeopardy clue for Wednesday, February 12, 2025 can be found below. With a runaway lead in Tuesday’s match, Neilesh Vinjamuri secured his second win in the Jeopardy Tournament of Champions.

The best strategy these two can do is prevent Neilesh from getting control of the board in the second round, as he has been successfully aggressive with Daily Doubles so far. Here is the question and answer for Final Jeopardy on…
