I had the chance to play Blitz Bowl for the first time yesterday. We used my friend's human and elven union teams from his copy of Blood Bowl because I have yet to assemble the minis for my copy of Blitz Bowl.

What a wild and wacky little game. Yeah, scoring touchdowns is great, but sometimes the right thing to do is just clobber some unsuspecting lineman to complete a challenge card instead. 😆

Looking forward to tabling this again. Probably could be talked into trying Blood Bowl proper at some point—thankfully my friend has a copy, so I don't have to front the money or assemble the minis. 😅

Bandcamp has its issues, but it's still one of, if not the best music discovery/buying platforms around.. and this upcoming Friday (August 7) is the next Bandcamp Friday. So at least then, the artists...

Unusual #VGMWednesday post: Materia Collective has a summer sale running until August 3rd, featuring a variety of official soundtracks and arrangement albums on CD, vinyl, and cassette tape. (Of course the lo-fi stuff would release on cassette. 🙄)

https://materia.store/collections/summer-sale-2026

Some personal highlights: The Hit Points self-titled album of bluegrass covers, RoBKTA's take on Sonic themes on "Needlemouse Mania," and "Conspiravision: Deus Ex Remixed" by Alexander Brandon and Michael van den Bos—the two primary composers behind the original Deus Ex soundtrack.

@nprofile1q... The frustrating part is that I was enjoying the game, I just have a very, very bad tendency to not finish things I start.

My list of games I've actually played the whole way through is surprisingly short, unlike the list of games that I own, which is ridiculously long. 😂
