Esch scoring major points
Did myself a disservice by skipping out on this, the first one was amazing.
Might have to use a emulator to play Golden Sun as well.

There were so many great games in that time you can't really go wrong with anything really. Even ones I personally don't care for I can see why they fuck with it

I didn't play Rainbow Six, Unreal, Star wars or Dark Cloud 2. But everything else is...whew

The original Golden Sun is probably in my top 10
I can also vouch for Golden Sun. I played that as much as possible everyday even during class back in middle school.
If I did a top 10 it'd be something like
GTA San Andreas (best GTA)
Mario Kart Double Dash (best Mario Kart)
Tekken 5
Smash Melee (best Smash)
Star Wars Battlefront 2 (best Star Wars game)
Kingdom Hearts 2
Final Fantasy 12
Soul Calibur 2
SSX 3
NBA Street 2 (GOAT sports game)
and i could probably list another 20 or 30 different games depending on the day. xbox games would start coming into play. i think it's been downhill since that generation due to chasing graphics and online play.

yep, for PS3 generation I wouldn't have a hard time, but I also played less games last gen compared to the PS2/Xbox/GameCube gen.
I never played SSX3. What does it do better than Tricky?

it looks and plays a bit better. Tricky would probably hit 20-30 if i did a full list where as SSX3 would be anywhere from about 7-15. so it's not a huge difference. i loved that series.
edit: EA Big division was so tight. so much 00s swag. dont really see anything out there right now with a style that fits so well with the times. probably something on mobile tbh.

theneedledrop reviewed "if you're reading this it's too late"
just as good as the new lupe fiasco and joey bada$$
This is where I stand. Idk. Too daunting.
Needledrop thinks that's Drake's best release then? (Haven't seen the video). L. L.

Yup he gave Take Care a 6 and NWTS a 5. Very strange.
I haven't listened enough to IYRTITL enough yet, but so far for me:
Take Care > NWTS > IYRTTL >>>>>> TML
id flip nwts and take care. take care just has too many instant skips.
the colder his sound goes the more i like it.
Dominokid, you really gonna put kingdom hearts 2 over 1?

Top games of the gen or forever? Because either way San Andreas, Deus Ex and Silent Hill 2 would make that
Also I dunno where to rank his new project yet but right now I got take care over nothing was the same

Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3
Soul Calibur 2
Animal Crossing
Resident Evil 4
Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy
Honorable Mentions:
Persona 4/Persona 3 (I liked the portable versions a whole lot better)
Tekken 4 (probably gonna get a lot of shit for this one, but I really liked the changes and I wish they would had stuck with them)

The Drake album isn't bad, it just gets repetitive. It's really a collection of a few very strong tracks and some generic Drake-type tracks. I like how many tracks lean towards one of his biggest strengths: a knack for 90s new jack swing melodies.
I know people rag on him for repetitive song content, and while it's true to an extent - I like the fact that he has some very personal tracks. You & The 6 is a great song, I wish more mainstream rappers did shit like that.
In terms of negatives, I disagree with the Needle Drop review on the lack of cringe lines: there are plenty. ESPECIALLY this nigga talking about taking a blade to see chicks because you never know. Seriously?
Jungle is a great track. Legendary is dope, love the r&b vibes as I mentioned earlier. Star67 is cool. I like the production, especially the beat switch ups.

This is what happens when you sour listeners over a large amount of time. in these situations people tend to think its a fluke and look at the artists overall output more than the project itself. if T&Y was released right after the cool I guarantee it would've gotten a much higher rating than if it was released now.

7/10 is still pretty high. Listening to it again right now(3rd playthrough), but 6/10 is being generous.
KH1 camera gave me too many headaches to love it.
Tekken 4 is a good game. Its just not what folks want out of Tekken. Sometimes I wish Namco wouldve reused a lot of that shit in a new IP.

only Jin fans got really burned by 4, and i mean there's devil Jin later, so...throw in the GOAT addition of Steve Fox and it's really a solid chapter, it just had big shoes to fill after 3 & Tekken Tag aka the one PS2 launch title that wasn't booty
Im so glad Netflix actually put Spartacus back up. I watched like the first two eps right before it got deleted.
Jin fans being salty cracked me up. I liked his new moves way more and it was great character development back when Namco actaully gave a shit about the story.

yeah, but having that mix of Kazuya & Jun's moves in 3 made him balanced/noob friendly without being shit like Eddy Gordo was, i can see why ditching his moveset was jarring but you're right, his new stuff wasn't bad and at least it was plot-related without having people thrown in volcanoes
Which is why I never understood the hype. I'd like to see things switched up in a fighting game. It's entertaining but only for like a few matches once you watch competitive and realize that's all you're gonna get.
