Kinda a double dose of dumb there. The Beatles were prolific af, AND 1 in 4 songs were top 10. They could easily spawn a dozen memorable bands with all their music. But sure, lol.

Yeah I went to Wikipedia to check the numbers :

The group's "main catalogue"—songs released between 1962 and 1970—consists of 213 songs

So that's like 50+ songs that were "hits", wake me up when Gearbox releases 200+ games and 50 of those are nominated for at least one awards

nominated for at least one awards

I get what you're saying, but this is a completely useless metric.

Yeah idk what else can be a testimony of a game being a "hut" ; I don't trust metacritic scores either

Sale count and player numbers on launch would be better I suppose
