Yeah I went to Wikipedia to check the numbers :
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
Also, it’s not like the songs that didn’t make the charts were bad, they just didn’t hit the charts.
Back then I believe only singles were eligible for the charts, not the rest of the album.
Also, back then, and up until the late 00s, you bought albums, singles were a thing and plenty popular, but mainly if you liked a band you bought their album.
The beatles hit number 1 for 90% of their studio albums.
And their worst album (yellow submarine) was 3rd.
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
