It is. If you call Y2K retro, the PS2 is a Y2K console. It's retro. Everything that is 20 years old is considered vintage.

Retro used to be like 5-10 years ago in gaming, because every generation was such a meteoric leap in what devs could do with their games that a ten year old game was basically made in a different world.
Now we live in a world where Todd Howard can release Skyrim for 15 years and nobody bats an eye.
Retro didn't stop moving because it is a specific year that will never change, retro slowed way the fuck down because hardware slowed way the fuck down. The PS2 is retro, but it took 20 years to become retro instead of the like 7-10 the PS1 took. The PS3 might take 40 or 50.

To be fair being an old zoomer is torture. It’s like watching a bunch of monkeys fling shit at each other and you are too old for that bullshit but then an older guy comes by and says this is you and your culture and you factually cannot deny it despite the fact you’d never do that. t. Old zoomer

>>
>>741643180
>and you factually cannot deny it despite the fact you’d never do that
But you can deny it because the age ranges are completely arbitrary. Of course that doesn't stop older people from lumping you in with them though.
>>
>>741643386
No because the game is not a part of me and I don’t care about the opinions of others within that context. On the other hand the generation you are a part of is intrinsic and unchanging. I can complain it at my discretion.

>>741643512
That’s the issue, my age lumps in that demographic. I rather get skinned alive than play Fortnite or some other zoomer rubbish but hey that’s we zoomers do right? It’s reductive and insulting to me.

I’m know I’m the backfoot as soon as I admit I’m a Zoomer on this board. That’s should say something about the general sentiment for this generation.

Graphics and game design have slowed considerably from the 1980s and 1990s. A game from 2016 can look just as good as a game released in 2026. That would be inconceivable in the 1990s. Same goes for game design, the medium hasn't meaningfully evolved since the early 2010s in terms of game design and we still have the same over the shoulder third person shooters and open world games. Scatrim and GTA5 still dominate most played games and they released 13 years or more ago.

Millennials get plastered as being faggots who drink Starbucks and wear plaid and beanies all day long, but once you're outside you realize it's overblown as fuck.
The same thing applies for zoomers but no one on here wants to admit that, they just want to get angry.

If you honestly think that a modern game with the same intent as Oblivion would be designed exactly the same now as it was back when Oblivion was made, you are retarded.

Retro was called retro because old consoles were archaic in usage and how gsmes played. Ps2 was first console that could utilize LCD screens with widescreen and seamless online play. Those games on ps2 built foundation of all current games and are still fully playable with fully refined controller due two sticks.

I can hook up a PS3 or Xbox 360 to a CRT via composite and play games completely offline in 4:3. Does that mean it's retro?

Because the only younger generation isn't even in high school yet and isn't causing any problems
>>
>>741645413
Because these people do think retro means "made before the 2000s". That's what they were told it meant when they first asked in like 2005, and since they were like ten at the time at most, they saw it as being set an eternity ago and not moved ever. They hold on to that childish impression because if they let it go they have to admit they were wrong.

Before video games were in the picture at all, retro was called retro because it reflected styles and trends that were distinctly disconnected from the current direction of culture. Bell bottom jeans were new, then old, then retro. They didn't become retro because we invented some new revolutionary way to make jeans, they became retro because the stylistic ideas behind them went out of style and then had time to sit.
The era where retro was like five years ago was the result of video games rapidly advancing. Now that video games no longer rapidly advance, retro is becoming based on stylistic aging like it is in every other field.

Retro typically means 20-25 years old or more. Did you consider NES retro in fucking 2011? Of course you did. Just because you're some 45 year old boomer millenial doesn't mean the shit you grew up with isn't retro. If you were a teenager in 2000, you're like fucking 50.
>>
>>741635571
I'm fine with PS2 era games being considered retro, but it drives me bonkers when I hear younger people consider the 360 stuff retro. All of the modern trends and sensibilities started on the 360 and general game design hasn't really changed since then.
>>
>>741646259
>consider the 360 stuff retro
Are you sure they're calling it retro? I have seen most of them be nostalgic for it because it's what they grew up with, but I've never seen them claim it's retro, old school, or whatever the fuck.

Issue being that the 360 had mid 00s games but also early 2010s games and the industry hasn't really evolved past games like GTA5, Skyrim and TLOU. In that sense I wouldn't call the 360 retro by any stretch.

And yet that doesn't mean it's doomed never to be retro. GTA5, Skyrim, and TLOU are all over ten years old, and all feel like it, even if the core game design hasn't shifted as much as it would've in any prior ten year window. Eventually your ability to feel their age will continue to stack up until it cannot be ignored anymore.

PS2 being a goated console doesn’t mean it isn’t retro unc
>>
>>741635571
PS2 is indeed retro because the game design tropes that are still common and present to this day weren't quite established back then. Some of them might originate in the PS2 era but things weren't solidified back then.

PS360 and onward are not retro precisely because the kinds of games those consoles got are no different from current games. Same kind of design, the industry has not evolved or moved on, we're still getting the same kinds of games, only with better graphics but no significant evolution in mechanics.
>>
>>741639082
I’m slowly inclining on thinking that early PS3/Xbox 360 years start to be a bit retro-like in the sense that games released back then were still made with very similar design philosophy as PS2/Xbox games but just in HD resolution. Budgets were smaller, games weren’t made for endless live service / DLC / season pass nonsense etc.

But late 7th gen is basically interchangeable with current gen games if we forget graphics, nothing even remotely retro there.
>>
If the console's has a 64 bits cpu and it doesn't default to little endian then it's retro, shrimple as.
>>
>>741647268
It’s kind of hilarious and sad that the difference between early and late 7th gen is bigger than the difference between late 7th gen and 2026.
>>
>>741648907
Like I said, we've still got an easy 20 years before the PS3 will have any chance to be "retro" as a whole. But it will happen. Just as you've begun to notice the differences between some of the earlier and later games, eventually the differences between the later games and what is now contemporary game design will become apparent. Eventually.

No Zoomer is 30 years old let alone over 30, you retard.

The oldest Zoomer is only turning 29 in 2026, the youngest is 14. The entirety of Zoomers are teenagers and 20-something.

Millennials are their 30s and 40s.

Zoomer. The exact cut off will change depending on who you ask but the general consensus is early 90s is the cut off. Even the latest tend to put the cut off at 95(which is wrong, but would still mean 96 is zoomer).

The Wii U is technically the last retro console ever made, because it came out in November 2012, just a month before the old reality of 3114 BC-December 21st 2012 ended.

If it were time it would a simple matter of saying "these 20 years are x generation". But that's not how shit works. Boomers were born in the baby boom. Millennials grew up around the turn of the millennium. Zoomers are smartphone addicted retards and so on. You don't get a new generation until you have something to define them.

You retards are so up your own ass that you think zoomers, a generation mostly born in the late 90s and early 2000s, hasn't played with a PS2.

By definition it is retro, as it is 3 generations before the current one, just because you retards don't wanna face the fact that you are pushing 40s and you've accomplished nothing and are still mentally stuck in your 20s, it doesn't mean that your warped perception of reality is actually how things are.

>>741635907
Yea they are obsessed with infantilization.

Gen Z is very feminine over all, for many reasons. Feminine philosophy is always about removing accountability, since a woman's social standing is a matter of life and death, a woman would do everything possible to remove any blame of doing something negative. Children are not accountable, and get way more free passes then adults. Women also campaign to change social rules for things that benefit them, even if those are things that will benefit them in the sense of removing punishments for mistakes they will make later.

So the flow is to create a new social rule, where everyone shames a man (since it's ALWAYS the man's fault, they are attracted to older man, the man is always gonna be the older one) for dating a girl younger than him, and that girl who is younger, will be a victim, and thus anything she does will be forgiven and the man punished.

Invest in a campaign to make this a new social rule, now women can have their cake and eat it too. They can be whores, date older men, fuck em, take their money, leave them or get left by them, then they are "victims", they can sue companies for settlements, and now they don't have to suffer the social consequence of being a young whore. They can get out of legal trouble easier etc.

The whole age gap thing is a woman's game of "I can NEVER be at fault".
>>
>>741650917

There is no difference because everything after 2007 (or rather wasnt already in school by 2007) was born with a smartphone instead of a soul

Even though you're listed as a Millennial these days, I consider anyone born in 1995+ to be Zoomer-lite/Zoomers.

The last millennials (imo) were born in 1990 - 1994. They still seem relatable enough to me (1989) that they still come off as Millennial.

I've co-workers born around 1995 - 1998 and you lot dress and talk like stereotypical Zoomers. I'm not sure what switch happened with people born in 1995+ but I would not assume the people irl that I've encountered who were born in 95/96 to be millennials if I didn't already know their age.

>>741652014
Gonna be honest here: much like how the internet killed subcultures, the internet killed generations. There's barely any differences in generations born after the creation of the internet
Honestly the entire concept of generations is stupid because it was meant to describe people born into one specific time frame, the baby boom after ww2, yet nobody ever gives a shit about the generation that came right after (gen x)

That's because early gen x and boomers and late gen x and millennials are basically indistinguishable. Much like how gen A and zoomers are so far. All that really means is generations are at least 50% longer than people try to force them to be, at least culturally.
>>
>>741652726

Born in '89 - about as Millennials as it gets. I can definitely see a difference between the 90s Millennials and the Older Zoomers.

I honestly think the last batch of Millennials are those born in 1990 - 1994.

Anything after (1995+) is borderline Gen Z or Older Zoomers.

All the 16 - 26 year old zoomers who weren't even alive when the PS2 released in Holiday of 2000 and think that's retro are zoomers. None of Gen Z are even 30 yet.

Yeah, 1994 is millennial as that was the original cutoff for the youngest millennial. I still think that makes sense. I prefer the older 1980 - 1994 range with the 1990-1994 babies being the younger millennials.

Those born in 1995 and younger and you just seem like zoomers to me, just from my experience ("middle millennial" b: '89).

>>741637260
PS2, N64, NES etc. can never be retro because retro refers to something imitating the feel or aesthetics of something old. Games like Mina The Hollower are retro, an MP3 player made today that looks like an 80s Sony Walkman would be retro, but the PS2 is just old.
