This was my least favourite part of Fallout 4, and the reason I've not revisited it! I'm just not creative enough to make it work, and the constant raids really frustrated me. I hope they keep this away from Fallout 5. I've no idea if I'm in the minority in feeling this way, though. -
Smackdown in its entirety, I fast-forward through Raw and I zip through Dynamite too, with the matches often being of little interest (though if the line-up is good, I can watch the full show) I'd been watching - and enjoying - Impact, but I've not had much time for that recently, and I stopped watching Collision and Rampage a long time ago. I often find NXT to be unwatchable, although I'll check out the occasional match/episode. In terms of PPVs, I used to watch every AEW PPV (aside from Forbidden Door), but now that there's more of them I'll be a bit more selective. There's usually at least one match I want to watch on a WWE PLE, but given that I'm paying for the network as opposed to the event in question, I typically whizz through these and only watch the matches I want to see. I've only ever watched wrestling live once (live as in as it happened, rather than in person - I've never been to a show in-person) - the show in question being last year's All In.

Oh, I didn't know that they were being defended separately, I obviously either missed or forgot that. I'd thought the Continental Championship had essentially replaced the ROH World Title.

I used to rate IX at a similar level to VI and VII (VIII has a ridiculous story), but when I replayed it I was really surprised to see how much of a predator Zidane is. At one point he grabs Dagger's arse without her consent, he's just generally a creep. A remake could tone his behaviour down a bit, if nothing else. I'd also like to see them add more side quests and expand on the card game a bit. I think I preferred the IX card game to Triple Triad, mainly due to the fact they didn't ruin the fun with unnecessary rules such as 'random'. -

I’m pretty surprised that you’ve ranked Rebirth and Remake so far ahead of VII, @TildeGuy~!. It’ll be interesting to see how much the third instalment of the retelling shapes your opinion in that respect (…if it ever releases in our lifetimes) -

For whatever reason I’d never actually thought to mod the game, any recommendations? -
Jack Swagger is a bizarre one. Two of his four Wrestlemania main card appearances have been in high profile matches. In his ‘Mania debut (at 26), he won Money in the Bank. At 27, he didn’t make the card at all. Then at 28, he was in the same tag match referenced by @gmoney. But at that point, it seemed unthinkable that he’d appear in a top level ‘Mania match again - yet at 29, he was in the World Heavyweight Title match against Alberto Del Rio - a match he might actually have won had it not been for his out-of-ring failings. One year later, he was on the kick-off show for a four-way tag match also featuring Los Matadores. His final Mania appearance didn’t come until 32, where he appeared briefly in an Andre the Giant battle royal won by Baron Corbin. So it was a Wrestlemania career of real extremes for the guy.

3-hours is definitely still a harder watch, even with the quality being better now, so I totally understand that. I usually just whizz my way through it with heavy use of fast forward. I just don’t have the time to watch it in full. I generally watch all of Smackdown, though.

10 pts - Final Fantasy VII 9 pts - The Secret of Monkey Island 8 pts - Omori 7 pts - Final Fantasy XVI 6 pts - The Last of Us pt 2 5 pts - The House in Fata Morgana 4 pts - The Witcher 3 3 pts - Pokémon HeartGold/Soulsilver 2 pts - Sonic 3 & Knuckles 1 pt - Stardew Valley This was a bloody hard list to pull together, and I may switch up the order before the deadline, or even swap out games. Super Smash Bros Ultimate, Super Mario 64, Xenoblade Chronicles, Tetris 99, Fallout 3, Super Mario RPG, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door, Crash Bandicoot: N-Sane Trilogy, A Short Hike, Hotline Miami, Superhot and Super Mario Galaxy were all on the list at various points. I’m sure there are other games in forgetting too! -

The only mainline Final Fantasy game I’ve not played. I lived rurally while this was active, and my broadband just wasn’t good enough to make giving it a go feasible. I really wish I’d been able to, as it sounds like it was a great experience. -
This comment might be a symptom of you not watching WWE regularly (or only watching Smackdown) as Jey Uso wrestles all the time. He’s also been brilliant, his matches are generally of a very high quality. Jimmy wrestles less for whatever reason, but he always looks good when he does. I think @d-d-d-dAz is spot on though, they did the break-up far too early to be able to sustain the feud. It feels like they’re picking up on something long forgotten about. I still think the match has potential to be great, but they probably should have either wrestled much earlier, delayed the break-up angle or had this play out differently (eg. Roman beats Jey clean at Summerslam, Jey leaves to go to Raw to ‘find himself’ and Jimmy ends up stumbling back into The Bloodline, feeling lost without his brother - with a confrontation between the two happening at the Rumble of Elimination Chamber).

Just post them here, as you would for the UKFF awards. If you don’t immediately have 10 games to list, that’s OK too. You can add to them or change your mind between now and the closing date. -
I really like them. Fuck knows what’s in them, but they have a nice kick to them, and I really like the flavour. I like chilli-lime crisps, and these are top tier for me.
-
If their truffle crisps are available, I thought they were decent; though I’m with @Carbomb in thinking the Torres truffle crisps are about as good as it gets for that flavour. On the whole though, for premium crisps, these are bang average. On the subject of truffle crisps, I tried the Slabs truffle flavour not that long ago, and it might be the worst premium crisp I’ve ever tried. Just awful.
