It's either Shinsuke Nakamura or Cesaro. They're doing cooler work than the rest of everyone imo.

Yeah but that's the thing here. Anyone can subjectively be the best wrestler but Nakamura and Cesaro are being booked like jokes so currently they are not. I literally switch to another channel when Nakamura comes on these days because his pairing with Rick Boogs is just so fucking cringe. Love the guy and would love to see him used better creatively but his current ventures don't do it for me.

Being the best pro wrestler is a marriage of star power, in-ring abilites, promo work and presence not just excelling in one category. Roman has delivered in all four with his tribal chef Reign.

Edit: Also same goes for Sasha except she might not be as strong in promo as Roman. But to be fair other than Becky and Britt Baker, no women's wrestler is that strong in promos.

And all the AEW fans who are dismissing Roman's current run is just being ignorant or blindly judgmental of WWE and whatever they do.

His matches have been consistently ranging from great to all-time classics and he has come a long long long way from the sufferin' succotashes and the magic beanstalk promos.

AEW overall has been better than WWE this year, especially in their booking and creating new stars but WWE despite sucking hard with the lower and midcard and their disgusting numerous releases of their talent, have delivered in the main event scene and PPVs.

Sasha Banks is bad

But good job putting the Tribal Chief on top.

Sasha Banks is the best female wrestler to lace up a pair of boots period. She's had at least multiple 4 star matches with the other three horsewomen, MotY contender with Bianca at Wrestlemania this year, classics against Ronda Rousey and Asuka. Not to mention, the best women's wrestling match against Bayley at TakeOver. Hell she gave Carmella the best match of her career.

Only reason she isn't just behind the Tribal Chief this year, is that she hasn't wrestled as much but when she did, holy hell were the matches good.

The least memorable and boring Ace Attorney game I've played. I had to go through a plot analysis to remember most of the stuff and it is easily one of the weakest games of its type.

Also Miles Edgeworth is my favorite AA character and I was excited by the prospect of an Edgeworth game but this game didn't do much for me. AAI2 is much much much better but I still think it is overrated to the skies by the fanbase.

It is especially jarring how the one thing that CC gets right is its music but then it manages to drops the ball with the most important music in the game which is the battle theme. Maybe they wanted something from the music to match the rest of the game's qualities.

Chrono Trigger battle theme would have been hard to top regardless.

They do not. What is being referred to is a scene of Alucard having a threesome with a man and a woman and having sex with both of them which would make him bisexual, and frankly unless you can show me canonical evidence that he is straight in the games that is no different than just giving him a heterosexual love interest. Would that be making him straight?

anyway, the answer is Castlevania.

Dude. He literally takes it in the ass and cries from orgasm. Not to mention he doesn't really seem to be having much of an interaction with the girl even though it is a threesome. If that is not gay, I don't know what is.

First two discs are legendary. Such amazing world building and character interaction. Disc 3 is a noticeable dip in quality which I didn't realize as a kid but was very apparent the last time I played it. Terra is the low point and Memoria isn't great but overall it is still one of the best FF stories but had the potential to be 'the' best FF story.

Near perfect story of its kind. However it kinda loses steam towards the end and the stuff in Terra is not that good. It was one of my favorite FF stories but over the years with numerous replays it ranks below the best which is FF7, 8 and 10 for me.

To me it's RE4.

The game has been rereleased so many times but I still ultimately associate it with those magical first half-dozen playthroughs on the Gamecube

It felt nice to be the only kid to have access to RE4 because nobody in my town had one... Only for it to be the most ported game in the history of the world sometime later.

Finally did Lightning Dodge. I looked at some forums online that suggested to switch to Game Mode on HDTV to make the input lag better which was a godsend.

I did it but not after I choked at around the 180 mark once.

Maybe I'm too old for this stuff now.

Lightning is just tedious and has input lag issues on the remaster.

This explains a lot. Lightning dodge was never ever an issue for me on the PS2. Here I can barely crack 20 before getting struck down.

There's a precise counter and it visually rounds to 0.0. That's why sometimes 0 counts and sometimes it doesn't.

Yeah like I mentioned in my OP, I got a 0.00 but didn't get the Sigil.

90s GotD is gonna be kinda boring but not the worst thing ever. The top tier games are gonna absolutely stomp and the low tier games are gonna be bottom of the barrel fodder. Also it is probably gonna be one of the easier contests to predict. Best Game Ever IV would be a lot more interesting because the last one was ruined by the rallies and I feel like BotW beating Ocarina isn't out of the realm of possibility.

Character Battle XI is my preferred option since we got a games contest last time.

Which is the worst requirement for upgrading a Celestial Weapon in FFX?







I've replayed FFX numerous times including the HD remaster but it has been a while since I really went for a 100% completion. So figured why not since its always been fun to do so.

But hooo boy the Chocobo Catcher game for the Sun Sigil is driving me up the wall. I know this game is infamous for being a little luck based and having terrible controls but as far as my history with FFX goes, I've never really had too much trouble with it. Apart from the very first time I've tried for the Sun Sigil, I don't think I've ever gone beyond half an hour and my last memory of it was that, it wasn't bad at all.

So now, I've been at it for more than an hour and while I've come close a couple of times, nothing has been more infuriating to find out that I got a literal 0.00 time once and it does not give me the Sigil. Just, what the hell man. I've been having a couple terrible runs the last couple of tries so I just switched off my PS5 and decided to take a break.

My main issue is, the controls for the Chocobo sucks ass. The other issue is the RNG with the balloons and the birds. Most times I don't get hit but I end up with way less balloons than I need. The times I do get enough balloons I get bombarded with birds right near the end. I don't know if it was just easier to control on the PS2 (because all my numerous 100% files before were on there) and the controls are somehow jankier on the PS4 or maybe I'm just older now and am less tolerant to these kinda bullshit.

I just don't remember this mini-game being as bad as people made it out to be. I was always apologetic towards it but now I totally feel the pain.

Gonna try again in a bit.
