Hey everyone. I know it has been a while, but the release of the new NFL 2K23 mod warranted a new post. Healthwise, I have been doing well. I still have follow-up appointments with my doctors next month as they want to ensure that I stay well after what I went through this past spring. If things go well with those appointments, then I can move on to the next thing to address: hip replacement surgery. While I’ve been away, I have been gaming like crazy, doing a lot of reading, and just taking it as easy as I can. Continue Reading

Can’t Believe June is Already Here

The summer is almost upon us. It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here. In my last post, I detailed some of my health issues that led to an extended hospital stay, and started me on a road to recovery. The good news is that I’m doing much better than I was earlier in the year. My doctor discontinued one of the antibiotics I was taking and my lab results are much better than they were a month ago. I’ve been focusing on really taking it easy in the meantime. That is why I have not been updating the blog regularly. I’m definitely still gaming in the meantime. The generosity of others for my recent birthday allowed me to check out some of this year’s releases to date such as LEGO Star Wars: Skywalker Saga, Elden Ring, Sifu, Rogue Legacy 2, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, and Vampire Survivors. If you have a Steam account, Vampire Survivors is worth checking out. It is an engaging survival-type game with a Castlevania-like feel with cool abilities and a solid progression system.  Vampire Survivors is also the best deal that you will find on Steam with a low price of $2.99.

Where Have I Been?

Hello everyone and especially all of my blog followers. It’s been a bit since my last post but I was unexpectantly admitted to the hospital on March 22. I had been experiencing consecutive days of fevers and also different symptoms since the beginning of the year that indicated that something was wrong healthwise. While at the hospital, I had my gallbladder removed as it was infected and according to the surgeon, “One of the worst gallbladders I have ever seen.” It was to be a relatively simple procedure at first, but once he saw all the inflammation that was there, he had to make a bigger cut around my abdomen to get the gallbladder and everything with it out. But that wasn’t the only thing that was found. Continue Reading

Star Wars Battlefront II Saga Edition Download

There are a ton of outstanding mods for the classic Star Wars Battlefront II. The Saga Edition creates a new experience by giving the game a graphical overhaul and adding a ton of content not in the original game. If you are a fan of the prequel and original trilogies, the Saga Edition mod is one super package. Saga Edition is the result of the work of Spiret in collaboration with other Battlefront II modders. Thank goodness for modders like these because they fill in the gaps that are many times left by developers of Star Wars games. The Star Wars universe is so vast with so many characters, planets, and species. Only a hint of this is portrayed in Star Wars titles. It seems the only way to get the best selection of characters in a Star Wars game is to play the LEGO versions. Anyway, this mod is superb and I highly recommend you give it a try yourself.

Video Games are Becoming Easier Again

My second go-around with Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor has been a blast compared to the first.

It had been way too long since I had experienced the thrill of mastering a control scheme in an action game and unleashing mayhem on my enemies. For several years when I was on dialysis for my failing kidneys, I had a rough time playing video games with the mental sharpness and motor quickness that I once did before. It was about a year and a half after my kidney transplant and a host of other health complications that I finally found myself back to where I was mentally before all of my health issues. It was during that time that I was regularly posting on this blog. But one day, my gaming abilities suddenly returned to me. Continue Reading

If you’re tired of being disappointed by the bigger gaming companies then it may be time for you to dive into indie gaming.
