>>741771471The youngest Zoomers were born in 2012, one year before the xbox one. So yeah the 360 would be retro for them.
>>741771471Yes people in 50 years will call your favorite GOTYAY a prehistoric beyond retro game and there's nothing you'll be able to do about it because you'll be dead.
man there's nothing worse than an ASMR girl getting into streaming because it's easier and doesn't require editing/script writing
is there any reason a man would watch a girl talking about videogames other than it being some kind of sfw porn?
>>741771471It's two decades old man. When the 360 came out, you know what was twenty years old? The fucking NINTENDO ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM.
>>741771880
>>741771880time gaps don't matter when modern games are still basically refurbished 360 games
>>741771880It's not retro and never will be those games play identically to modern games. Xb360 invented paid dlcs and online updates for AAA games. All games were made with lcds in mind, even controller is almost the same as modern xbox consoles.
>>741771471why is it always these 0 view whores that get posted here?
>>741771880rock doesnt become classic rock just cause 20 years have gone by
>>741771471zoomers don't know what the meaning of any of the words they use are, so i don't know why you're surprised, it's been common knowledge for a decade that zoomoids erroneously call definitively modern shit """retro""">>741771640case in point
>>741772041There are thousands of 360/ps3 remasters/remakes that barely change games core and just improve graphics and add better co and qol. To this day we still play those games, it's peak of retardation to call them retro. If they are retro so do ps4/ps5/xboxone/xbsx
>>741771471I'd say "retro" cuts off at the PS2/Xbox/GameCube/Dreamcast era. The fact is that the 7th gen consoles are basically the same as what we have now. Calcified gameplay, HD graphics. GTA V is still actively played and came out in the 7th gen.
>>741771880niggerbox360 is still an extremely modern console, retro isn't a function of time passed, you retarded nigger
>>741771640I can't even imagine being born to this world after 90s or early 00s with post Mayan apocalypse pop culture devoid of any soul and fun
>>741771471>2000 was 26 years ago>im so heckin oldgo back
>>741771880retro != old
>>741772041>>741772085Oh look it's the "it looks and plays JUST like a modern game. The word that means 'evokes a style of the past' cannot possibly apply to this specific era of games 20 years ago." replies.>>741772390>>741772282>retro isn't a function of time passedThat's literally what the word means dipshits
>>741772431>The word that means 'evokes a style of the past' cannot possibly apply to this specific era of games 20 years ago." replies.modern games already do that
>>741772282>this 20 year old console is still modern because... because... IT JUST IS, OK?
>>741772497It's as powerful as a Switch. People still have Switches. So yeah.
>>741772310I feel like being born before the smartphone means you’re relatively “ok.” Like a Gen Z dude born in idk a throwaway date like February 1 2000 is still old enough to say he was born before 9/11, saw the bush and obama era first term and a good 7 years before the first smartphone. After that you’re pretty much fucked.
>>741771471When the 360 came out the Nintendo Entertainment System was 20 years old. Everyone would agree back in 2005 that the NES was retro so the 360 is retro now because its over 20 years old. I don't see the problem.
>>741771657Haha i wont be dead in 50 years nigger, im just forty ni-ACK
haha what if I replaced the case she's kissing with my penis haha
>>741772431no, that's literally NOT what it means, dumb zoomoidal nigger
>Unc's in this thread.
>>741772748If things don't change much then older things aren't seen as different and separate.
>>741772486and the past isn't an arbitrary number of years that retarded zoomer niggers decide, because the keyword in that sentence is STYLE, niggerbox360/pissstation2/gaycube games are the same exact fucking style of games today and both are in a completely different style from actual retro games, fuck the fuck OFF already you retarded fucking braindead niggers
>>741771471she's right, you are just old and coping
>>741772936someone doesn't like the fact that their old LOL.
>>741772928They've changed a lot, go and play a 360 game they're so much better than what we get now it's unreal.
>>741771471The 360 is as old today as the NES was when the 360 released.
>>741772936It's ok grandpa just have some milk and take a nap.
>>741771471Eh, I kinda get it. It's old.Thing is, gaming hasn't fundamentally changed since the PS3/X360 era. Biggest changes have been the wokeness and overall game quality decrease. But games still play the same way, and the games coming out today could have been, conceptually, done on a PS3/X360.For me the HD consoles just aren't retro, honestly. Now the Wii, PSP and DS (systems from the same era absolutely are.
>>741771471Because it is.
>>741773014>>741773143>hurrrdurrrrryou niggers are so fucking retarded, no wonder you can't operate a file system and are afraid of your own shadows
>>741773132good thing that has no bearing on what constitutes retro, nigger retard
what would zoomer/alpha AVGN be like?
>>741772647and the gba was as powerful as the snes. but the snes was still a retro console during the gen 6 era
>>741773221
>>741771640it still wouldn't be retro because retro is new reproductions of old stuff not just something that's old
>>741771471>literally have all those games in their case plus hundreds morehow much money could I make reselling 360 and orginal Xbox era games to zoomers?
>>741771471The 360 isnt retro because the NES isnt retro either
>>741772647its not though, is it.
>>741773370best i can do is 5 bucks and a box of tictacs
>>741771471>Xbox 360 launched in 200520+ years old means retroYOU ARE OLD, OLD MAN
>>741772041>psoHome
>>741773267You want a cane with that cope so you can raise and waggle it threateningly?
millennials can't cope with the fact that they are old as shit and everything they grew up with is retro now.
>>741772431Stfu gen alpha faggot, you had no childhood you were born into orphaned state of modern dystopia and will never have soul, your nostalgia is a mirage of things you think we're like for us but it's all fake.you are nothing more than a zombie and parasite addicted to anime gambling and dreaming about being born earlier
>>741773417no it doesn't
zoomers call everything they like "peak" and "iconic", why would they know what retro means
>>741772497Listen to what we are writing you troglodyte you zoomer/gen assfucker. Go back to school if you can't into reading comprehension
>>741772282>>741772390>Retro doesn't mean oldLol.
>>741773492imagine thinking this because you played call of duty when you were a teenager or something
>>741773508does this mean that 90% of new AAA releases are retro
>>741773597>thinks he's proving retro means oldlol
>>741773489>using a anime reaction image that’s older than him
>>741773132Good thing that they were on pc too so nothing released on pc will ever be retro. PC won.
>>741773635not reallyindie games are very retro though with their vhs/pixelated graphics
>>741773574>80s fashion trends arent retro because they dont have pixels and they used similar materials to make the clothes to the materials they use todaydumbass
>>741773417It will never be retro
>>741773508It's funny you posted that because DS1, COD, Gears, and AssCreed (all 360 games in that pic) all got remasters to run with modern grafix specifically to bait nostalgiafags with the retro 360 experience on current gen hardware.
>>741771471even after a decade, Americans (and you faggots) still don't know what the word retro means
>>741773489Nah. I hope that the shit I grew up is seen as retro because god damn, did we had it better than you. Sadly you didn't listen and sided with boomers with their "Millenial this and that" to get fucked even more.
>>741771471i love retro girl gamers youtube!!
>>741771471Everything will become retro eventually
>>741773758if they were remade with modern graphics then they wouldn't be retrothey would be retro only if they tried to recapture the same look they had back then
>Zoomer Derangement Syndrome in 2026
>>741773712>fashion that is 40 years old looks now archaic and ugly is the same as Gta Sa that is still completely playable like it was released yesterdayOk retard
>>741773743It is and always will be, you're just the old man yelling at clouds now.
why do uncs act like modern games are the same as xbox 360 games with better graphics
>>741771640Gen Alpha begins in 2010 according to most definitions.
>>741773743>>741773646>>741773569>>741773492holy cope unc
but what about MILF tech youtubershttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qS6QechcIA
>>741773758>DS1hardly a remaster. More like an upscale with less frame dips
Xbox 360 and PS3 are retro. They don't have solid state drives and they can't play the forever GAAS games like Fortnite and Roblox. The games on 360 and PS3 are fundamentally different from PS5 and Xbox SeS/X
>>741773840Not true at all, the tone of the games is completely different to modern ones.
>>741773758They were playable on pc and can be played with 4k res with no modding needed or silly remastered edition as we can remaster it on our own. They will never be retro for anyone with a brain (aka playing on pc)
>>741773597good job should proving your self wrong you stupid faggot
>>741773865>archaic and uglythat's what San Andreas is lmao
>>741773885Besides microtransactions, how are they any different from a game design standpoint?
>>741773946retro is specifically about the aesthetics of the thing not the "tone" or "vibe"
>>741773804>ps4 is now retro too Lmao did we skip ps3?
>>741773885because they have early onset dementia and can't remember how those games looked and played. Be nice to them they are very old.
>>741773825Your semen is retro as it dried up on your carpet
The retro era is everything from 3114 BC-2012 AD. The end of the last Mayan cycle marks the beginning of the current era, since we moved to a shittier plane of existence for the first time in over 5,000 years.
The paper clip was perfected like a hundred years ago, it is not retro.
>>741773939>>741773952>Doesn't count Lmao. Why are you 45 year old niggas trying so hard to act like you're not past your midlife crisis? Youre not in your "I'm still young, I still have time" phase anymore. Get to it, fags, the space of possibilities is rapidly shrinking.
>>741773989coping
>>741774031>early onset dementiafunny since your gen has the lowest attention span in human history
>>741773885Same reason why you will call everything a fortnite when somebody plays a game or dances in 40 years.
Do millennials cry this much when the oldies station plays their favorite offspring songs on the radio?
they're just raging out because their entire generation is unemployable
my stance is that if the average modern gamer can beat it without constantly crying about the game design from the time then its not retro
>>741771471it is
>>741774085There is always time till I cannot move on my own from my grandpa's bed to my gaming desk and insult you zoomies. I will be doing it till death.
>>741771830Nope. Unless you are interested in Otome games or something.
>>741773307I'm glad you asked. Here's what I thought about for 30 seconds. >Intro plays>He's finna take you back 2 da past... >Ta play da dookie game that suck hella ass... >He'd rather have, a weed pen >malfunction so he can have a realistic panic attack >He'd rather eat, the smelly booty >Of his fourth situationship since college and down it with lean>He's the most crashed out gamer you finna heard >he's the angry ahh nintendo nerd (we stan nintendo doe)>he's the angry ahh PS2, Ubisoft nerd (so retro!) >he's the angry ahh, video game, nerd...>Alright chat what's good widdit gang, today we finna play some ol boolshit knamsayin? >Today we got a real retro ahh game... some shit you ain't even heard of, ong...

Sunshine? No homo, AHA! What kinda gayass name is that? He look kinda chill on the box though so I guess it's cool... >Shit... you got hella options in this game... 3D movement... a hop jump... jump on enemies... this shit FIRE oh my gawd. >Hollup.

>>741774031this is a screenshot from a 2001 video game that looks the same as your ps5 FPS do, plus it runs with 60+ frames per second while not being resources intensive at all. Basically it plays the same or better.
>>741774265I don't listen to radio as I've heard all classic rock/metal songs for 2000x times
Ah, yes, Minecraft and GTA V. Such retro classics. A relic of their time, if you will.
>>741774412that is one tiny woman.
>>741773865lots of people like the 80s look and dont consider it ugly, so they emulate it. but its still retro because its old, even if the clothes are made with the same threads as newer clothes. same with 90s fashion, same with y2k fashion. everything becomes retro after the passage of time.also >>741773958 is completely right lol
Imagine thinking this gen of consoles can be retro lmao
>>741774493that's not a tiny woman, that's the player standing on the table.
>>741771471Foids be larping, what's new
>>741774463Minecraft is retro, but GTA V isn't. GTA V came out after 2012.
>>741774265Yeah, it's really jarring when the younger generation looks 20 years older than yours and also moves like it and you are supposed to enjoy geezer mode. I just want to yell at you over my fence but it would just come off as bullying the elderly since you guys already need electro scooters to get around. Makes me really sad - it shouldn't be like that.
>>741771471Zoomette mouths were made for sucking my dingus
Contemporary MMOs are more or less the same as Phantasy Star Online (Dreamcast, 2000).They just layer on the illusion of depth by co-opting combat systems from other games which, themselves, aren't that much different from their 90s counterparts other than derivatives of Bamham City.
>>741773893It was 97-12 since forever what are you talking about?
It's a foid, so anything they do is performative to begin with.
Who gets to decide what "retro" means? Is there a certain cutoff point instead of it being a certain number of years ago on some floating timeline?
>>741774896there haven't been any new relevant MMOs since ESO over 12 years ago
>>741771471No, the Xbox 360 is not retro and neither is the gamecube.Retro ends with the SNES and the 16 bit era consoles like the Genesis. Once you get into true 3D gamin you're not in the retro territory anymore. Don't get me wrong, 360 is old as fuck now and I 100% get nostalgia for it. If you grew up with the 360 I am sure you have many great memories of it, but it is not retro. Retro is a specific time period and look. Let me give you some examples:>Bell Bottoms are considered "retro" and are from the 70s>Big Puffy Royal Gowns are like 1000 years old and are not "retro" they're just ancient or old>White slacks with white dress shoes is considered a "retro" look>A Gladius is not considered a "retro" weapon despite being much older, it is merely a relic or artifact or just a swordYou get my point. Retro pretty much refers almost exclusively to things from the 70s through the 80s. You may include the very tail end of the 60s (like 1969 when Star Trek released) and you might include up until like 1991 or something, but really retro is pretty firmly a 70s/80s thing. Retro consoles are the various Ataris, NES, SNES, Genesis, Master System, etc.
>>741771471Why do people say retro and not vintage
>>741771471Yeah I admit i'd cum in her ass only to keep her a virgin forever
>>741774970Me, everything I deem retro is retro
>>741775006Your opinion of what is retro is retro. The new retro is old shit millennials grew up with, gramps.
>>741774898That's the Pew definition of Gen Z, but Gen Alpha is almost universally agreed to begin in 2010, so there is an inconsistency in definitions which may or may not be resolved.
>>741774725post your youthful good looks then anon if you're so handsome
>>741775091vintage is too big of a word for them
>>741771880>20 years ago was 40 years ago
>>741771471N64 and PS1 were younger back in 2006 when the 360 came out than the 360 is today, and we considered those retro at the time
>>741775319
>>741771471very disappointed that after wasting time looking this up she didn't have a russian accent
>>741775221Definitely not. The term retro is just being misused. Another anon said "vintage" which is much more applicable. Retro is definitely a specific time period, look, and level of tech. No one thinks anything from the 50s or before is "retro", as I pointed out earlier. I do agree that the term "retro" is kind of dominated by one generation's idea of it, but so what? They invented the term, it is up to them to decide how it is used and frankly it is a good term because the 70s/80s aesthetic is something we still see used today. I think even an older zoomer would get a "Miami Vice" reference or if you mentioned something about "Hippies at Woodstock" they could envision it because everyone has a stereotypical view of this era of America.
>>741771471It is. Just because /vr/ is in denial about the seventh gen being retro doesn't mean everyone else is.
>>741774412>>741774620Oh snap, Return to Castle Wolfenstein. I'm playing it while going through the IP in chronological order. Currently at the forest mission where you have to sneak around and recover the super deluxe sniper rifle. Good shit anon, good shit indeed.
>>741775452Words change with time, old man.
>>741771640Retro means 80s
>>741775452>No one thinks anything from the 50s or before is "retro"that is just so utterly wrongcharleston, Charlie Chaplin, Glenn Miller's orchestra are all earlier than the 50s and all of those are absolutely retroyou need to stop making shit up and accept the passage of time
>>741771471It is retro at this point. Stuff like the NES isn't retro anymore, its vintage.
>zoomers think…Don’t worry you’re still the bigger retard for giving a shit.
>>741774265Yes, the millennials here don't hate zoomers for a reasonable reason, it's just self hatred and jealousy because they lost their youth
>>741775452>but so what? They invented the term, it is up to them to decide how it is usedenglish has never worked this way, use it or lose it, meaning is always decided by who is currently actively using it, go ask the anon here that seethes every time someone uses futa to refer to a chick with cock, balls, and tits
People can't cope with the passage of time it seems.
it's a 2005 console & she looks like she was born in 2008-2009. figures
>>741775680Bullshit. No one is calling an orchestra retro you weirdo.
>>741775327Anon-san, your reading comprehension...
>HD Console with online connectivity, voice chat, and a storefront to download games digitallyyeah dude how retro...
>>741775927It's a jazz orchestra, anon, and it's like THE MOST retro music piece you could think ofhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aME0qvhZ37o
>>741772390You are aging faster than you think you are anon
>>741772189Photograph by Nickelback is a damn classic and you know it.
>>741775319Anon, I'm a millenial, getting baited into doxing yourself and than blackmailed and raped is your generations thing
>>741773489I say stuff came out 30 years ago is retro. 20 years is just old shit.
>nearly 40
>>741776097No, I would absolutely call that music vintage or classic and that would be a much more apt description.I guarantee you if you polled 1000 random Americans and asked them about aspects of "retro" culture it would absolutely be dominated by stereotypes surrounding the 70s and 80s because that is what retro means. No one calls Dinosaurs retro. No one calls the Bible a sick retro adventure. I feel like you have be a non-american to misunderstand this. I get it because "retro" is absolutely an American invention and I am sure European civilizations laugh at us for having words to describe an era that didn't last as long as one of your kings/queens or whatever, but get real. You know what retro means. If someone says they're releasing a "retro throwback game" and then showed you a Halo 3 Xbox Live lobby you'd be raising an eyebrow.
>>741776097I always loved big band music.
>>741771471Game Centre CX determined that retro is counted as 20 years or older. Xbox 360 is retro. The Nintendo DS is retro. And soon, Ps3 and Nintendo Wii will be retro.
>>741776184retro and old are synonyms
>>741773804for me it's Laura
>zoomers thinklmao no they don’t
>>741771471 >You listen to music before 2012, watch movies before 2012, and play video games before 2012? Ew, fuck off grandpa. Why does old stuff still exist? They should get rid of all the old stuff and only keep the new stuff.Why are so many zoomers and gen alpha kids like this? It's like they seem to have an aversion to anything they consider "old" and think things only became cool after they were born.They don't even know rap music was a thing in the 90s and think Bobby Shmurda and Chief Keef are the "GOATs".
>>741771880Please tell me what's different about Call of Duty on the 360 and Call of Duty now
>>741771471>retro This permeates broccoli head energy.
One day GTA VI will be retro. We're getting old you dumb fucks just embrace it. Don't forget to get your colons checked and your prostates examined. You're not young anonbros.
>>741771471Oh man, I love to see this /vr/ autism spill over onto nu /v/ *pops popcorn and selects auto update*
>>741776409millennials did the same thing to Gen X.
>>741773804why are women such posers bros?
>>741773804Is this the new whore larp meta?
>>741771471You should be glad zoomers try old media instead of consooming whatever is coming out. No more generational wars.
>>741776575>newOLD AS FUCKING TIME
>>741776409i cant believe that there are "People" born after 2012, i just cant accept it.
>>741773505Someone already did literally this exact gag thoughbeit.
I doubt anyone here is actually young enough to mock Millennials. Just seems like a bunch of larpers itt, but in case any of you are genuine youngfags, just take a second to think about the fact that in the blink of an eye, you'll be on the receiving end of mockery from NEW youngfags. The things that are "fire" and "crazyyyy" for you today will be seen as cringe tomorrow for people younger than you. There's no reason to uncpost.
>>741774337There's something to work from this because there's not a single Xbox 360 game that feels any worse to play now compared to back in the day.
>>741771471homie the 360 is >20 years old, it's "retro".I do think the whole retro thing is becoming increasingly inadequate, because we hit diminishing returns on changes in games. but since that's the only word that's being used, 360's retro. So is the Wii, and the PS3.
>>741776641I'll do you one better anon - there were new (that's the opposite of "old") people born TODAY
>another "boomers have completely lost track of the passage of time and think their shit is still modern because it just feels that way to them" thread

>>741776760imagine being born in 2026, like you missed EVERYTHING
>>741773804>>741776523>>741776575As a Laura enjoyer I must say she legitimately does play video games out of the joy for it. I'm VERY familiar with the typical twitch ethot phenotype and behavioral pattern. The way she plays is not performative, and she DOES play the games (she plays way more games than me). I don't see any sponsors when she plays either so take that as you will

We’ve had this thread at least twice a day this week you guys are fucking pathetic.

As a zoomer actually somewhat interested in old stuff-it's funny seeing millennials say yeah the 90's and 00's were peak(notice that used to be the 80's just a few years ago) popular culture-while being ignorant of the amazing decade that was the 60'sEvery generation now is clouded with nostalgia due to social media, even 16 year olds are nostalgic of their childhood which makes me sad
>zoomers>soilennials>boomers>zoom zoom>uncI'm tired... How do you guys keep up the energy to care about pushing this sad culture war nonsense, there's no way any of you talk like this in real life.
>>741776784>>741776646

>>741772310Yeah after wrestling, nu metal, skating and all that shit was replaced with nigger culture and woke shit. We're just barely getting the world back but it's been awful for a while.
>>741771471>20 year old consoleyep, it's retro.
Still, I can't accept that early 2010's will ever be retro, that's my childhood, stuff from that era sucked assRetro=early 00's and 90's for meI guess this is why uncs got angry a few years ago when we decided PS2 is retro
>>741776937
>>741777474>Nu-metal nostalgiaLel
>>741773221this is what baffles me about zoomers and gen alfalfa, they barely know how to use fucking computers beyond the internet browser and smartphones. it's also kind of scary because that's exactly why the cloud computer and everything else as a service and ai communist bullshit has even gotten this far and is still being pushed despite anyone with an ounce of intelligence knowing its fucking stupid and a road to ruin to even give (((they/them/wef))) an inch
>>741772748It feels more wrong to put the 360 and the nes in the same category rather than the 360 and the xsx and ps5 together. Nothing has really changed since the 7th gen.
>>741771471That's bc it is, gramps
>>741777626That's what I feel about movies after the 60's tho
i'm a 2007 boomer and my big bro had a 360, while my first was a One; so this checks out.now excuse me as i drag my dusty 19 year old bones up the attic to find out if the retro console will red ring or not.
>>741773489Your entire childhood is just a rehash of mine and you wish you grew up with the PS2
>>741777795Based unc
>>741771880Yup. Retro is relative. Sorry OP you're not young anymore.
>>741777795you're not real
>>741773804>don't recommend channel
>>741777830Nah you wish you grew up in the 90's with Quake instead of watching the gameing industry decay and rot after PS2
>>741777474>racists unironically like nu-metal
>>741776497No? At least older Millennials and Gen X have an overlap.In the youth of Millennials they fucking LOVED,>Kevin Smith movies, you know THE Gen X guy?>TMNT>All those 80s movies that were on VHS or even TV>NES and GB
>>741772282>niggerbox360Funny. Here it's only niggers and poor whites who play PlayStation, Xbox was white people.
>>741776878I already hit don't recommend channel after the title "a gen z perspective", I don't give a shit about your perspective, you just know less
>>741777929Isn't nu-metal heavily influenced by hiphopIs this thread only Larpers?
>>741777795holy shit i am ancient
>>741777626this is the reason why i dont consider the 360 retro, same for the ps2 to a certain extent)
>>741771880Retro games are pre 7th genGames from the 360 aren’t far from modern games in the way they play
Ageing millennial failure here. I worked with a bunch of urban zoomer and gen alpha gaymer dipshits a while back who had literally zero awareness of seminal /v/core joints. They straight up asked me what kind of games I liked to play and they had never heard of Dark Souls, DMC, Monster Hunter, Half-Life, etc. They had played Breath of the Wild but didn't know the Zelda series was like 40 years old. They had heard of Resident Evil from the moviesIt's one thing to just not know much about stuff from before you were born but to be completely ignorant as to the history of one of your main hobbies is retarded imo
>>741774265Balding zoomer lmao
>>741771880Facts. Millennials refuse to accept they're retro.
>>741778005Yes it is. Fred Durst is basically the main reason the term "wigger" became popular.
>>741778057How many movies from the 50's and 60's have you watched?
>>741778117A lot actually
>>741776409I'm not sure if it's a generational thing but there have always been retards that just consume new stuff and completely ignore anything older than them. It just means they're ignorant and superficial.
>>741778057do they even play traditional games or just roblox and fortnite?
>>741778141Good, drives me crazy when Millennials and my fellow Zoomers each respectively claim the 80's and 00's were the golden decade of American cinema
>>741778057If ANYONE irl ever asks what games you play, just say the usual slopfectaCOD, GTA, Roblox, Minecraft etc. Never give normiegroids the benefit of the doubt
ah yes, retro 360 games like rise of tomb raider and alien isolation and halo 4 and metal gear solid V: phantom pain
>>741776760I feel so sorry for them goddamn it
>>741778057I mean most normalfags who consider themselves a "gamer" don't even know the names of the devs who make their all time favorite games.

>>741774265>Grow up with millenials taunting Xers about being old now >now seeing zoomers taunting millennials about being old now>will be seeing alphas taunting zoomers about being old >repeat foreverIt's amazing how nobody thinks they'll get old. Surely my 20s will last eternity unlike the previous losers.
>>741777738I immediately look down on any movie made after the 90s, maybe even the 80s too.
>>741778353>don't recommend channelthat thing doesn't work, after a couple months youtube will start recommending the same channel to you again (god knows why)get thishttps://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/blocktube/bbeaicapbccfllodepmimpkgecanonai?https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/blocktube/

>>741777830Is this some sort of consoomerist faggot cope or are you actually using games you had no involvement in making as a flex lmao.
>>741773804I like the big tittied pregnant chick. Her video on daggerfall clothing was spot on. I don't think there's any modern RPG that comes to close to the outfit customization you could pull off in that game.
>>741778117In the 90s it was very common for various old movies to be played on TV stations. I saw most of the Pre 90s Godizlla movies that way. Bruce Lee movies, the god damn claymation Christmas specials. Star Wars OT was introduced to most millennials this way.Not only that but even back then VHS was pretty common and parents/grandparents would even have a couple of their favorites.
>>741778492https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ME4ufezlfbM&t=905s
>>741771471>>741773489i played with the 360 at my friends house growing up as a zoomer though?
>>741778353What baffles me is that they don't really offer any unique experience, their entire selling point is "first generation to grow up with internet" but that's not even true as late millenials (90s kids) already did that. The world is changing so fast and new generations have nothing to offer other than cringe and ignorance.
>zoomers hate millennials>millennials are making all the games and media zoomers love

>>741771471the console is 20 years old anon, you got old.

>>741779142I'm 35 and I'm surprised how many of my friends don't have children or have a stable partner, we're eternal teenagers, we even still hang out to play video games. I'm a home owner and make a lot of money, still don't wanna trade my lifestyle for a woman.
>>741779142one generation was real quick to pog their pants over funko pops to the point where streamers thought having a fucking wall of them was cool and i don't remember that being zoomers
just wait until you old cunts get to your 80s, the new generation already considers 7th gen retro, its only a matter of time
>>741771471>xbox from two gens ago is not retroXbox came out 21 years agoAre you going to tell me that at the time the N64 came out (1996), a console released 21 years before that We don't even need 21 years, 19 years before the N64 there was the Color-TV. You've probably never even heard of this shit.
>>741779448it sure was not millennials
>>741778996Very funny.Lets look up who wrote the game.>Jacques Hennequet>Jason Scottand who directed it.>Brian TraficanteOh gee golly wilikers. They all are Gen X.
Normalfag catered thread op nigger
>>741779335I can only assumed you're actually jealous of not growing up with the PS2 so resort to make shit up about me, thanks for playing.
>>741779505>came outalways with the "came out" retro means its entire life time not when it first came outthe 360 ended its life time in 2015, so calling the 360 retro you must also call everything from 2015 retro as well
>>7417795972015 is retro, the aesthetics and culture are completely distinct. I'd argue 2020 is retro at this point.
>>741777795I'm a 40 year old zoomer and corona is retro to me
>>741779597No, only the games from 2005-2012 are retro.>>7417796892015 is not retro, it's a 14th baktun year. The retro era is defined as being the Mayan era from 3114 BC-2012 AD.
>>741779518thee root of all millenials
>>741778917Well least you're willing to admit the drop in quality the game industry suffers from happened when Millennials started getting jobs in the industry.
age doesn't make it retro
>>741779518same fucking thing, you bald retard
>>741771471>Dark SlopsStupid whore
>>741771471this bitch popped up on my recommended too for no reason obvious plant paid ad
Are we forgetting 7th gen was the era of brown shooters and gears of war clones, while also being the time Japanese developers started westernizing their games and therefore making them awful? Nothing will ever be as bad as that time.Granted Western games are still slop to this day but at least half of the industry already recovered.
>>741780043Not mine, I just get incel videos and japanese music, skill issue
>>741773804I hate all of these grifting bourgeoise cunts. And I know every single one of you trash cans would sit and gawk at these sub-Onlyfans whores.No one gives a fuck. "uwu, i'm a hot 20-something." Their whole fucking personality. The games are just a vessel to sell their milquetoast girl-next-door sex appeal.
>>741773489Zoomers who weren't alive in the 80's and 90's don't understand how much gaming changed between generations then vs the seventh generation to now. Xbox 360 servers are still active, so how are those games considered "retro?" Games like TF2, Left 4 Dead 2, and COD Black Ops 2 still have active playerbases. Sure they're old games at this point, but they're not retro. They're still modern games.
>>741776643the pic you're responding to is a decade old by now
>>741780138I tried watching a video from one of these whores but they're so low quality and their takes are so superficial I couldn't stand watching the whole thing. Having an attractive woman giving the same kind of opinions as a neckbeard is impossible.
>>741773804>I got a PS4 instead of the Switch 2 lolBut you can play those games on the PS5
>women when they're tasked with actually playing a game in their collection
>>741780061I also remember the 360 era was the time of western game jurno's just shitting on JRPG's and a lot of Japanese games in general for no reason lol.
>>741779556>u assume thing about me so me assume about uDid that sound smart in your head?
>>741778672>I don't think there's any modern RPG that comes to close to the outfit customization you could pull off in that game.not an rpg but Crimson Desert is worth playing for this alone, pieces of equipment have up to 11 or so dyable parts, you can change material settings too like type of cloth or metal, sheen, how new they look etc depending on the item in question, it's wild
>>741780531Assume is different than making shit up, you're showing what I say.
uncs be like>no this 20 year old console is not retro bruh no cap meanwhile all respectable parties (ebay, gamestop etc) consider it already retro take the L
>>741779556I grew up with ps1 and n64 but “thanks for playing” kid.
I know the thread is about whether Xbox 360 is retro or not, but I can’t help but feel infuriated by how much larping there is with gaming. This foid does not play video games. They are just boxes for her to collect. She has Dark Souls, but she will never beat Tower Gargoyles. It’s just nice to have on her shelf for any guys coming over to blow her back out. Fucking white of Babylon.
>>741780683NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>741780689>>741780531I'm sorry you have no nostalgia for the video games you played as a kid then. Now we can keep talking about old games.
>>741780134i watch videos about games sue me
>>741780683I don't think they say bruh no cap
>>741777989That video in particular was interesting to me because she never once trashed any of those games. She played through them all, and she admits that while the dated graphics turned her off at first, she eventually got invested and enjoyed them despite that. It's a refreshing zoomie take.
>>741780683This nigga said "the lack of Fortnite" lol
>>741779556Who’s making shit up? Your whole argument is “jealous of thing I grew up with” thus making it a defining factor of your childhood.
>>741780683>ebay>gamestop>respectable parties
It aint retro cause some 360/ps3 games dont look that much different or look just as good even as modern games.A N64 and PS1 is retro because the jump between a game in 1997 and 2007 is astounding.How the fuck can it be retro when this game released on the 360 and ps3 is literally still the latest game in the series and played to this day.Skyrim is still the latest TES. These zoomies will find out real quick how retarded they are when they are 30 and GTA 6 is still the latest GTA and TES 6 just got its first gameplay trailer.
>>741781138learn how to speak like an actual human
Shitposting aside does anyone actually have some decent 'retro' game reccomendations or should I just spend the afternoon browsing the Atari, NES and Saturn catalogues?
Actually only current gen consoles that mimic old consoles can be considered ‘retro’. Last gen and older are too old to be retro.
>>741772431Nobody thinks a 2005 Mustang is retro ya dingus.A Foxbody sure. Not cause of its age. But because it literally has no ABS. It invokes an era of cars when there was no computer nannies to save a shit driver from killing themselves.
>>741781217"Retro" has just been adopted to mean old because the average person is too retarded to understand "vintage".
>>741781181>ESL pajeet cant read basic EnglishMany such cases!
>>741779597Unironically late-360 games look the exact same as games that come out today. Look at Halo 4, that was a 360 game and it looks just as good as the one that just got announced
The 360 is over 20 years old. It's older for Gen Z now than the consoles you considered retro where when you were a kid.
skyrim and the last of us are my favourite retro games
>>741781181In other words. You have no argument and you must seethe.
>>741771471>uncs unironically think a 21 year console isn't retro
>>741781323>basic english>it aint>A N64 and PS1 is
>>741780761Preach. What a waste. The bitch gets to make her living acting this fucking role, too.
>>741781004>a defining factor of your childhoodCorrect video games were important to me, I'm sure they were important to you too, I have no idea what you're bitching about, you just assume it was the only thing in my life because you want to be angry.
>>741771471zoomer hereps2 isnt retro
>>741781482>nephew thinks this is retro cause its 20 years old
>>741771471You people grew up calling a specific era "retro" and everything that came after "not retro". From your point of view nothing changed and you want to keep using the same word to refer to the same era as you always did. But you have to accept the world moved on and you need to use specific terms like 32 bits or fifth generation to refer to specific eras as the term "retro" is too broad now.

>>741772282360 didn't have HDMI or Wi-Fi in its first release version. It had memory card slots. It could only read DVDs. The PS3 is spiritually a decade newer than the 360.
For me it was the wax tablet and aqueduct.
>>741771471Faggot ignorami will make this a generational warfare thing. A smart person knows this is just an artifical push to make you pay 50$ for a fucking copy of Tom Clancy's End War and 200$ for the PS3 that was 75% at Goodwill.

Something I've been wondering about, do zoomers have desktop PCs? I've heard that they do literally everything on their phones which sounds uncomfortable as fuck, the feeling is also completely different. I've seen some even saying that sitting at a desk is like hell or something, sitting in front of a computer was even magical to me as a kid, there was so much fun stuff to do, I still own a desktop PC and sit in front of it practically all day, but I see how it might seem old fashioned for younger people.
>>741771640>>7417718807th gen will never be retro. It started all the cancer we see to this day so nothing has changed since then.
>>741771471It is. Girls born when it released are now on OF.

>>741777940I'm Brazilian and my parents got me an Xbox 360 instead of a PS3 in 2012 because the PS3 was too expensive even though I was asking for it over and over again and never mentioned the XboxTo this day I am still bitter
>>741772936i guess cuphead 2 will be retro when it comes out thenby your logic
>>741783305On that note, what was the deal with Beyblades? Apparently they had actual tournaments for them? Surely "ripping" your top into an arena can't have a metagame. I always thought the shit was bad Yugioh.
>>7417775472010 is retro, you double nigger. that was before the world ended in 2012, before the crisis of 2014, before the election of 2016, before the covid of 2018, before the economic bullshit of 2021, and before the hardware price hike of 2025. Also before the LLM, machine learning, and neutral networks being mainstream. Drones did not even exist. Look at how many lifetime events there were since. You are ancient, faggot.
>>741783476>I'm Brazilian and I am still bitteryou need to learn to love yourself homie
>>741778073i gotta give them credit tho, they gatekeep on a level ive never seen beforeit is impressive.
>>741772228>it's been common knowledge for a decade that zoomoids erroneously call definitively modern shit """retro"""lmao, would you also unironically consider a 2005, early 360 title modern?
>>741783669bro first bakugan and marbles and now this fuck i haven't thought about any of that shit in agesthe solid metal beyblades were sick though but i rarely ever saw them so i guess i missed those too idk if tards actually like played for keeps with beyblades like we did with dumb marbles and shit
>>741783328Correct. It will never be considered the same thing as what we now call retro games, because it fundamentally is not.However the retro/not retro distinction might becime obsolete and we might instead use ages to categorize gaming: Golden Age, Silver Age, etc. The PS360 era will be known the Dark Age.
>>741783328Yes exactly.When video games are involved everything becomes fucking retarded.
>>741773957>>741773646by this definition nothing that is considered retro is retrothe games you think are retro are not styled of the pastthey were styled of the presentjust like 360 gamesbut if 360 games dont count then nothing countsexcept for new games that are emulating styles of the past e.g boomer shooters.
>>741771471It's weird how every retard is getting into collecting now shows how many people never liked games until 20+ years later when it finally became "main stream" faggotry.
>>741778917All the good shit is made by either gen x or boomers, Millennials rarely make anything noteworthy and when they do it's tranny shit like Steven Universe, Undertale, TADC etc.
>>741783328If gaming still doesn't change by then, yes.
>>741783924>The PS360 era will be known the Dark Age.you just admitted that the only reason you wont include it is because they make you seethe.lol
>>741772706i was born exactly a month before 9/11. am i one of the approved zoomers
>>741776430Call of Duty was good on the 360, not so much now.
>>741783712No, that's impossible. I can't summon even the slightest bit of patriotic feeling. I will never not be mad for being Brazilian.
>>741783759Anyone with a brain would. Stupid zoomie baby
>>741771471Retro is not a time delay, it's an era. In gaming history, we currently have the Retro era (1970-2000) and the Modern era (2001-Present). GTA3 is no different from GTA6, aside from graphics and just more stuff on top of the gameplay loop. They're both Modern games.
>>741783853Josh? But nah, we never played for keeps in Victoria. Maybe in Canberra that was a thing but for your ol' m8 Z it was Dragonball pogs we played for keeps in Vic.
>>741784216it still plays the same regardless of quality and monetization which also applies to most of gaming since the 360
>>741772041>7th gen literally killed video gamesthe fact there are people who have the audacity to glaze halo and other 7th gen slop is nuts
>>741776430skill based matchmaking. you could have fun playing with a group of people of random skill level on 360 and everyone had mics. nowadays you do exceptional one game and you're pretty much confirmed gonna get your shit stomped in next game unless you're willing to treat every game like an esports match.also everyone is in party chats.
no of ?
>>741771471How can it be retro if I'm 29 and never had one?
>>741784216I remember a time when this board would shit on every CoD release. Now people look at them like modern achievements in gaming
>>741784153Nice projection. Why do facts make you mad?
>>741784293GTA3 shares more in common with NES games than GTA6
When the PS3 came out, the NES was considered retro, as it was like 20 years old then.Well.. it has been 21 years since the XBOX 360 came outthe 360 is as retro as the NES was when the PS3 came out
>>741771471Why doesn't he swallow his cum before taking a thumbnail
>>741776430messi
>>741784496its as old but nowhere near as retro
>>741784434no one ever claimed cod to be a modern gaming achievement you lying cunt.
>>741784112but gaming has changed since the 360 eraits changed for the worse in every way, people look back and say why cant we have games like that again.the only way to say they haven't changed is if you just define what a videogame is and say all videogames are videogames therefore nothing changes.games today dont look or feel the same as 360 games.thats just a fact.the only way i could see locking retro to a time period would be to say things are only retro if they were released before 3d accelerated hardware was invented/released to the market.(maybe thats a bad way of phrasing it but you get what i mean)
>>741784326yeah i figured beyblades probably cost too much to be just handing them over, and yeah i think those were before me because all i remember is marbles and tazos but that was in sydney so idk
>>741784496>posts argument that has been refuted at least 70+ times in this very threadretarded frog poster
>>741784645can you please properly define how the games actually changed besides the monetization
>>741771471There is more time between the release of the 360 and today than between the the release of the 360 and the Super Nintendo. You're a retard.
>>741771471It unironically is though. And early 2000s music is played on classic rock stations.
>>741784685Maybe because it's fucking true and the refutations are based on feelings?
>>741771880"Retro" is not about a fixed time span you utter mongoloid. Imagine what it would feel like to go from a Super Nintendo to an Xbox360, I bet most players would struggle to go pass the Dashboard. Hell, even transitioning to the PS1 from the SNES was a huge jump, but you wouldn't know that because you're an underage faggot.
>>741778445>you're still jobless and will never survive without your parents50%-70% of millennials never moved out, depending on the country, why do you think this is an insult?
>>741784493No one who played both + knows enough about GTA6 agrees.
>>741784493GTA3 doesn't even share much in common with GTA1.
>>741784810well the devs back then were straight and whiteand now they are brown and gayhope this helps:)
Watched my zoomer nephew rocking back and forth and jibbering while watching YouTube brainrot of young adult men acting like clowns and making basedjack faces. This world is actually doomed.
>>741771508fpbp
>>741777626>>741778019Let me guess: you have no qualms about putting the NES and N64 in the retro category even though the games are completely different, right? That gets a pass because they were part of your childhood, doesn't it?
>>741784645You are a brain damaged fucktard and you have not made a single argument amongst any of the drivel you just posted. 7th gen haters point out real things like the rise of microtransactions, day 1 patches, on-disc DLC, paid online, skill-based matchmaking, "we want the modern audience", etc., and all you can do is spout emotional bullshit because you have room temp IQ.
>>741785103Retro literally just means oldMake up a new word to describe whatever game design bullshit that you're talking about
>>741784496If Gears of War is retro, then Pragmata is retro.
ITT: Uncs melting
>>741785192Yup, because they're different enough from modern games.I'll gladly add 360 games to that pile when modern game design properly changes.
>>741778917>>millennials are making all the games and media zoomers lovefor how many popular games is this even true? Undertale and what else?
>>741771471>tranny/foidDon't care.
Why are old people so sad? I know it's always been 18 or older to post here, but there should really be an age limit too. This is pathetic.
>>741785103I just looked up the definition of retro on five different dictionaries. Not a single one matched your petulant bullshit.
>>741785376old enough to remember things being good
>>741785210>Retro literally just means oldOnly for idiots. When applied to games, Retro is an era encompassing sameness of culture, like "Baroque," "Romantic," or "Hellenic."
>>741785419Things were never good. >>741785376Everyone is here forever.
>>741785204>anyoh yeah?link it all
>>741771471If Dark Souls is retro, what makes Elden Ring not retro?
>>741785438[Dismissive Wanking Gesture]
>>741780761/v/ is way too shit at games to ever bitch about streamers and foids being bad at games ever again. Half of /v/ got unironically filtered by the AC6 helicopter and by Last Judge in Silksong. All my favorite streamers beat that shit without looking twice. /v/ thinks they're still good at games because they don't actually play games anymore, they just boot up Metroid Prime and replay it for the 300th time while complaining about zoomers not getting 100% completion on their blind runs. Meanwhile they faceplant and bitch out whenever they have to overcome a new challenge for the first time without the benefit of 15+ years of practice.
>>741771471Cause it is now
>>741784810besides this >>741785184 unironically just generally effecting the quality of the games ( i blame women more than the reasons he mentioned ) games constantly fall into gimmicks that they didn't used to back in the 7th generation. back then, and action game was still just an action game ( i.e. god of war 3 ) now look at the modern games. god of war now is a game filled with unnecessary slow cutscenes and talking segments. also there are shoehorned RPG mechanics now. if you haven't noticed this shift i doubt you actually play any video games at all.
>>741785526the year it came out
>>741783669They still make tournaments
>>741771471>buys a bunch of mainstream slop that has been re-released over and over on later systemsWhat's even the point?
>>741785573oh yeah and carefully crafted level design is non-existent now, everything has to be open world to some degree. can't forget that. the only way you could think games are the same now than from the 360 era is if you think games are only defined by their graphics.
>>741785482Not surprised that a fuckwit like you suffers from irony poisoning and thinks that band kid memes are funny. Take my Reddit Gold and fuck off.
>>741785189Hot
>>741785472>Things were never good.shit boomers will say completely straight faced to you when you show them a picture of an all white beach in your country 60 years ago or a street full of well dressed calm people that aren't chimping out
>>741785730Go away, retard cultist, sell your pamphlets elsewhere.
>>741785795>mmm yes i love brown rape gangsthanks lad
>>741785795he is right, you are wrong. if you continue denying the reality, your balls will rot and fall off.
>>741785310Nah, 7th gen games still look, feel, and play miles different than modern games.
>>741784391>and everyone had micsI can't believe we only had that for a brief moment and then it disappeared forever, it was amazing. Nobody talks to strangers anymore.
>>741785526>>741785579this site cracks me up
>>741784496No matter how many times this gets refuted in this very same thread, some retard comes and thinks he's the first one to say this.
>>741786004and it's still just as true as the first time it was posted.
>>741785526>what makes Elden Ring not retro?People dont want to admit that From has been releasing the exact same game for the past 15+ years.
>>741785210>>741785395The fact that there's no discernible difference between the "retro" Gears of War 1 and the upcoming Gears of War Eday dismantles your whole argument. You're just a bitter zoomie that can't cope with the fact that you missed on the golden age of gaming and will forever be spending your mommy's money on DLCs and download codes.
>>741785210Old is a good word, and yes the 360 is an old console now. Retro is more about style, and I agree that 360 games are not very different than modern ones.
>>741785923>we only had that for a brief moment and then it disappeared forever, good riddance. AI must replace of your normieniggerfaggots asap.>Nobody talks to strangers anymore.I never wanted to talk to other people. Just play a game. Win. Bots are better players than the real players anyway (and always has been), so fuck all of you multidicksuckingplayers.
>>741777929Well, yeah, it was the last bastion of it being okay to like white people
>>741786089Oh there was quite a lot of difference between Gears 1 and Gears 4/5. People didn't like those differences and E-Day is explicitly being sold on nostalgiafaggotry i.e. retro appeal
>>741785376Young people also seem to be very sad
>>741786089there's about as much difference between those gears of war games as there is super mario world and super mario wonder. by YOUR logic, that means the snes is not a retro console.like yea no fucking shit two games in the same franchise are similar. there's a big difference in something like COD4 and Doom Eternal though.
>>741786221do you think he actually played them or he just youtubed something, decided they looked similar enough and figured it was good enough for his argument?
>>741785795He's right though, you would actually have to be a cultist to think we have it better now.
>>741784810Which genres are mainstream changed and new genres have been created. Every action game is now a souls-like, gachas dominate the industry, we've had new things like battle-royale games and extraction shooters, the rise in popularity of MOBAs as more than a WC3 mod, WoW and MMORPGs in general are nowhere near as big as they were, we no longer have tons of "Halo killlers" and CoD clones, etc. A lot of popular franchises from back then also lost relevance.>>741785573>filled with unnecessary slow cutscenes and talking segments.That's just taking gameplay first games and making them into movie first games, it started in the 360 era.
>>741785664???the open world craze was around in 7th gen as well.
>>741786046It is true time passes yes.
>mfw the 360 came out when I was in collegeWe played Halo at the frat house on the OG Xbawx.
>>741785376The minimum age limit has always been a shifting concept of "people old enough to have enjoyed games before the 64-bit era", when it comes to culture. If that ever changes, it will because this place was overrun by people who have Reddits and Discords to otherwise discuss things. You are literally calling it pathetic that older people don't want to be overrun by children on the only forum they have while children have several options. You think it's pathetic that /v/ doesn't have an older age-limit? Then it will become the same shitty forums you don't want to use once oldfags are forced out. >Abloobloo this is the only place I get to speak my mindWell it won't be if you think there should be an age cap you fucking idiot
>>741773804Juniper is legit good
>>741771968Damn what's this from? Maybe I should give anime a shot.
Wii is the same age now as the NES was when the Wii came out.
>>741786221Geras 4 was the same as always, Gears 5 added semi open areas that nobody liked and feminism.
>>741786483there were still plenty of non open world games that are popular i.e. the last of us, mgs4, uncharted, left 4 dead, etc etc. now, even games like uncharted 4 have these "open" sections, and i can but i seriously struggle to think of any linear games that blow up these days. my point wasn't hard to comprehend unless you're intentionally being obtuse, but people tend to specialize in that when they struggle to think of a counter argument.
>>741786424>you would actually have to be a cultist to think we have it better now.but what about the curry
>>741786603They desperately want to own this place but that will never happen. Zoomers are just not interested in 4chan, they're all on tik tok and the losers on discord.
>>741786703Lol no dude, shut the fuck up.>"Nothing changed">Things did actually change, you just have no idea what you're talking about>"That doesn't count"
>>741786302>>741786375What are you on about, zoomie... that's not a fair comparison at all. For starters the SNES didn't use CDs, it didn't have internet connection, it didn't have cameras or a microphone... you will never know what it was to buy a new release with a manual, you will never know what it felt to play a new release that was actually properly developed from start to finish, you will never know what it feels like to play a new game without a strong independent female character, you will never be able to play a new release without a faggy YouTuber spoiling the game to you, you will never know what it was like to talk with your friends in school about how to go through that part you were stuck in instead of watching a walk through. You lost, zoomie.
>>741786795MGS4 also had open areas and that's how it was advertised, if anything there's a return of linear games nowadays. 7th gen was shooter slop, 8th gen open world slop, and right now there's enough people making good games that you can ignore all the slop.
>>741786483>>741786795>open world crazeUltima (Online), Everquest, Lineage II, World of Warcraft, GTA, and thousands of other video games with an open world existed before the 7th gen has even started.
>>741787000>For starters the SNES didn't use CDskek stopped reading here. some times no response is better than whatever bullshit you think you can conjure up as a cope.
>>741787012That was the MMO craze (+ GTA)
>>741787012no shit sherlock
>>741787002>MGS4 also had open areasfair enough, i was moreso thinking how there weren't a lot of branching paths and you kind of get funneled area to area to your objective but i see your point.
>>741787115why do you insist on being retarded? first of all, it was chronically before the 7th gen. Secondly, I'm not listing hundreds of titles here, are you crazy. Pretty much almost all of the MMORPG's were open world. But, plenty of single games were open-world too. Nigger, Ultima I was open-world and that shit came out in 1981.
>>741787012the "open world craze" was skyrim, therefore late 2011
>>741787409indeed, close to the end of the 7th gen which was my >>741786795 pointgaming has drastically changed for the worse since the early-mid 7th gen and boomers lingering disdain for that generation will never change that fact.
>>741787409dumb fucking goyim. TES: Arena has procedurally generated dungeons and was open world long before your trash was ever conceived.
>>741787067I accept your concession, now go ask mommy for money to get your DLC
>>741785664>zoomer retard has no idea what the fuck he's talking aboutcolor me shocked
>>741775546No. It means old. 360 is Retro now.
>>741787639do you really think any normies gave half a fuck about tes arenabro what do you think the craze part of open world craze means
>>741787639holy shit i can't believe you're this fucking dumb. open world games existing prior to the 7th gen is not equivalent to an "open world craze" which implies most of the industry conforming to said gaming convention. jesus i can't believe i even share a board with you fucking mongoloids.
>>741776430no nicki minaj skin
>>741787761>bro what do you think the craze part of open world craze meansit quite simply means hype (excitement) and (some sort of) popularity of games with such a feature. A feature, that has exsited, and the improvements for which were dreamt of, for longer than I myself have been playing video games. And I'm playing video games for over 32-33 years now.
>>741785541See what I mean
My favorite retro games are Persona 5 and MGS V.
Is it actually over for us, 90sbros...?
>>741786825Zoomers also have terrible taste in gaming. Maybe not the zoomers here, but zoomer normalfags definitely do. I let my zoomette gf who never touched vidya in her life borrow my spare Switch Lite so she could try stuff like Animal Crossing, Pokemon Lets Go, and old school tendie games like Mario Kart 64. Do you know what her zoomer friends suggested she download? Fortnite and Minecraft.
>>741787791>the industry conforming to said gaming convention.it never did. due to the lack of a functioning prefrontal lobe you assume that the most popular games for you, since you have heard of them, are defining the universe. But they aren't. You have absolutely no fucking clue what you're talking about.One of the best horror games, for example, of the eearly 7th generation is the first Dead Space. And that shit is not open in the least. The list of good/great non open world games of the 7th generation obviously goes on, as the list of open world games does.
>>741773804>Laura>Age 29Basically a hag
>>741771471Thanks boomer kikes for wasting our timeBet that gen wars faggotry is well worth it to keep us all demoralized for not working and reproducing in this shit world
>>741773489It'll happen to you too... one day you'll wake up and everything you loved will be old, the people you grew up will be dead, and outside will look like Kabul.
>>741771471shit is retro when it is 20-30 years oldthis concept began with Back to the Futture, where the 80s began to feel nostalgia for the 50s.Getting older,It can happen to you!
>>741773505
Being middle aged starts in your 30s
>>741788392in your shithole with the lifespan of 23. in any decent place on this rock the middle age starts at 45 to 50 and goes up to 60.
>>741771880there's a massive technology gap between the NES and the 360 compared to the 360 and Series S/X.technological progress has slowed quite a bit for gaming.
>>741772282>512Mb of RAM>No WiFi >No HDMI>Can only read DVDsDo you actually think before you speak?
>>741773597>hurrr durr, what is context?dumb zoomgroidal niggeroidal retardoid
>>741788532dont come at me sideways old man I don't make the rules
>>741773885because they literally are. why do faggot assed niggers like you pretend that they aren't? oh that's right, to be contrarian retarded niggers who nedd to go back to ředdit
>>741771830>menThe only males that watch her are retarded simps in their late 30s early 40s with too much money to waste throwing it at the female. Younger guys tend to not simp. Older guys just bite the bullet and buy prostitutes or sex dolls.
>>741788392>Hehehehe be demoralized goy hehehe you oldie heheheCan you presudo-kikes (aka zoomers) go away already, all of our time is collectively destroyed with them chasing that sweet sweet kike juice and left us all in the void to what feels like an eternal fight to feel superior towards others
>>741773943not having a ssd does not make them retro, they are firmly modern systems, keep coping zoomgroid
>>741788613I'm not old. Old starts way later than 60. Again, you need to be living in a decent place with enough food for your brain to develop properly to ever be able comprehend phenomena of such complexity.fucking turdworlder.
>>741788689>>741773963They aren't:>>741786471
>>741774970>Who gets to decide what "retro" means? i do.>Is there a certain cutoff point instead of it being a certain number of years ago on some floating timeline?yes.
>>741786642i kinda want to have sex with her
>>741788532>middle age is retirement age 10 years ago
>>741775006this guy gets it, because he actually experienced retro gaming, unlike zoomgroidals who were born into and only ever experienced the post-retro modern era of gaming
>>741775335no we didn't. n64 and ps1 are and will always be modern consoles and they weren't even the first ones
>>741788905yes. despite the modern day male retirement being at 70(+), the middle age of a man is the middle of his adult life, which starts at young adulthood and ends on some number that depends on the average lifespan. So if the average lifespan is 72, then you start at for example 18 (too young). So then you do the mathemathics and arrive at 45 years old in this particular example.
>>741777940white people had pcs and n64s and gamecubes, only niggers had niggerstations and niggerboxes
Why are millenials in particular aging so poorly? In most popular circles up to now you'd see 30+ participants accept their senority, but with modern millenials it's kicking and screaming insisting that 22+ year old consoles are still brand new, the gaming landscape hasn't changed and that they're still young at a ripe 38.
>>741789231Anon, it's the zoomers considering suicide over turning 25. The whole thing where they inist 2 decade old consoles aren't retro is because lots of people are skullfucked niggers who don't realize retro is a scaling relative thing.
>>741789231Nobody wants garbage like Gears of War to be considered "retro". At that point the word just means old, which is stupid.
>>741779145it being 20 years old does not make it retro, it just makes it 20 years old, nothing more, nothing less, get that through your mulatto perm-covered empty skull, you heinous NIGGER
>>741787409The open world craze was undeniably kicked off by GTA 3, but it did take until the following gen for other devs to figure out open world design. It took until gen 7 for everyone was doing it. By 8th gen, it was so ubiquitous as the default style of game that even Nintendo, who typically thrive by not competing in the same genres as the rest, went full on Ubisoft with their level design philosophy.
>>741789328That's all it ever meant. Retro just means old. Now is an Atari MORE Retro than a 360? And will it always be more retro than a 360? Yes. But 360 is retro now too. Deal with it.
zoomers hate millennials yet can't stop larping as them on tiktok. Zoomzoom, you will NEVER experience the PS2's glory days and all you can do is larp about it on social media.
>>741780683>niggerslop and nigger retailers as an arbiterSAGE
>>741789231>they're still young at a ripe 38.38 is officially young. not even kidding. again, live in a proper country, shitworlder. also, being retarded, you are obviously confused by difference in terms like young and juvenile.>the gaming landscape hasn't changed not true. gaming went 1) mainstream 2) to shit. All because of shit eating goyim, like tech illiterate zoomies and funko pop collecting millenials.
>>741782429none of those things make it retro, nor will it ever, learn what words mean, zoomgroid
>>741771471retro just means something from the past, but what counts as the past depends on who you’re talking to.to your grandparents, retro is the 1940s and earlier. to zoomers, retro is stuff like the DS, xbox 360, early youtube, old flash games, etc.it might not feel retro to you, but it is to them. that’s just how time works.tl;dr: you're getting old
>>741788051Try karaoke. You will be shocked how many 90s women you can bang via Karaoke (if you can sing disney duets) and how many will play co-op games with you - even shit like Outward. They all play Mario Kart, at least. You will feel young again.
>>741789386Can we invent a new word for games that were made pre-goyification of the industry?
>>741783398that's because you're a retarded nigger who doesn't realize that every single pissnigger2 game you've ever played is EXACTLY like modern games, you are a nigger and retard and your opinion on shit is less than worthless because you understand nothing. shut the fuck up already you retarded nigger cocksucker
>>7417896066th Gen and before.
>>741783519cuphead 1 isn't even retro, retarded nigger
>>741783759a 2005 "early 360 title" is already a full 10 years deep into the modern gayming paradigm, you retarded zoomgroidal nigger
>>741789606people commonly refer to it as the golden age, but there is the important dispute of when it ended. what world of warcraft the ulltimate goyslop that was the literal end? then the golden age has ended before 2004. And so it depends on the titles. Red Alert II is a great video game and so it was going strong in 2000. But Warcraft 3 in 2003? Hmmm, who knows..
>>741784496the nes wasn't considered retro because of it's age in years, this is what you retardgroidal zoomgroids can't ever understand
>>741789865Yes. It was.
>>741784645>but gaming has changed since the 360 erano, it hasn't. you being a fucking retard doesn't make your delusion real.
>>741771471lust provoking image

>>741789479>retro just means something from the pastnot in the context of videogames, it doesn't, it refers to A VERY SPECIFIC PERIOD DEFINED BY SPECIFIC HARDWARE LIMITATIONS AND GAME DESIGN PROPERTIES
>>741789928no, it wasn't, and isn't still. this is something that you will never be able to understand because you are terminally retarded due to being terminally nonwhite

>>741790613Cope grandpa. It's time for your meds anyway.
>>741790534I'm whiter than you for sure. >>741790373It absolutely is. Eventually "vintage" becomes "antique". Retro is a descriptor that is equivalent to "vintage". Retro means old. Learn some better fucking terminology. You're just mad because of a self perception trap. You like 16bit game or whatever. Just say that.
>>741791150>xboxis not xbox360, you fantastic retard. I'm not even a console peasant, by the way.
