    Nail in the coffin for me was Paul charging people and adding paid-DLC's to his reviews. he truly thinks hes an artist himself and not just a guy who talks s--- about music albums lmao

    I actually revisited this the other day & this album really was the one. It’s aged so well tbh. Even low spots i didn’t really use to enjoy like “worst behavior” & “305 to my city” grew on me a bit. Man... if he would have swapped 305 with 5am in Toronto, sheesh.....

    Show me a good game that ign gave something like a 6 to

    I'm not saying I think Ubisoft's games are seriously 8.5's and 9's like IGN gives them, but when they give something a 4-6 it tends to be a game that isn't good

    Not quite a 6 but: The Order 1886 got a 6.5 (when it should have got a 7.5). Good game, great polish, but short of great. Deserves a sequel, shame it was received so poorly due to some bad press it got just before release regarding its length.

    It's $3.99 CAD on PSN right now, just picked it up and enjoyed it immensely.

    Also here's a reflection piece that sold me on giving the game a try:

    it doesn’t really mean anything anymore tbh. I remember when Source Mics meant something but that was a long a--- time ago. I think general consensus user reviews say more than just one critic.

    top 5 OAT
    kevin gates
    pusha t
    OT Genasis
    50 cent
    69

    cant be proven wrong
    (also before paul calls 69 a pedo, a 17 yo girls sent a lewd pic to 69 and 69 sent it to his m8. He is being charged with distributing, but his counter-claim is that he didn't know she was underage because he didn't get a nude pic and go "hey excuse me but could you please give me your ID so I know this is legal?")
