Why couldn't it have stayed 2007 forever?Why couldn't I have stayed 15 years forever and enjoyed PS2 games and the early Youtube and MySpace and ICQ?Please let all of this be just a nightmare and let me wake up back then again.
Seriously though does anyone else think it's weird that there isn't a single thing that didn't go completely to shit? It can't just be a coincidence.
>>750296796these games are dogshiti hate you early-2000s zoomerssaints row 2 shits on gta4 too
>frogposting touristkys
It's just because we were kids. The world was so much better before we lost our innocence.
>>750297083> saints row 2 shits on gta4 I can’t believe they followed up saints row 2 with a shitty 3rd game.
>>7502967962007 was the year everything went to shit thoughand yet i'm still wishing i could've been a teen around that time
>>7502967963 nigger games lmaoooooooooo i was playing kowloons gate earlier how does that make you feel zoomy yeah kys
>>750297361>>750297083What made you decide to be someone who spends his time being a shitstain on the internet?
>>750297259It was literally 2008 though due to financial crisis etc. and smartphones being just 1-2 years away. 2007 was the last year that still felt "oldschool".
>>750296796>2007All those games are early 2000s Hell in 2007 PS3 and 360 were already released, which means the golden age has ended and the dark era of gaming just started Fucking poser
>>750297580It is common for poor kids to play the games of the older generation due to them being much cheaper.
>>750297509I agree with the other anon, 2005 - early '06 was noticeably better than 2007 even though the bubble hadn't burst yet 2007 was still really winding into it. Cell phones also got to the point where people really started preferring texting over calling and talking. In 2005 almost everyone just had Razors and would just call and talk, and if used messengers for chats which was way cozier. In late '06, at least in my experience, everything really just shifted over to phones instead of like AOL etc.
>>750296796Technology progressed too fast. It should have platooned around 05-10 longer
>>750298020This
>>750298020>platooned2011 was about the peak of technology though. When Megaupload got nuked in early 2012 that was the beginning of the end and the internet started getting gay as fuck with too much corpo money
i was 9 in 2007. i remember playing dbz bt3 on ps2 that year
>>750297083I tried saints row 2 when they gave it out with games with gold and it felt like complete shit to play, can any oldfags back me up here? Was it good in 2008 or always shit?
>2007>be teenager>no responsibilities>just got to play tons of S+ tier vidyaMan do I fucking miss it
>>750297580>>750297663The playstation 2 was still the most popular console in NA and Europe in 2007. I have no idea why you people ignore this. If you make a seething faggot reply then i will make a follow up with stats to prove it, but you can look them up.
You're all retarded for trying to pin down a specific year. I was born 81, the nineties is my golden age of amazing everything. All of your 2k slop registers as mongoloid garbage to me. Know why? Because I was young and impressionable in the 90's. When you're a teen, you know just enough to not be constantly confused over how society operates, but not enough so that it demoralizes you. I nostalgia trip back to the first Diablo Game, to A Link to the past, to Secrets of Mana, and to Mortal Combat 2. Does that mean I am right about the nineties and all you whipper snappers are wrong? No, it means everyone who believes there is a specific year when it all went wrong is a fucking imbecile.The sloppiness is a slow somnolent march towards ruin, not a 180 made at a specific year.
i regret not playing more world of warcraft
>>7502967962007 was a shit year for gaming, the beginning of the end.
>>750299602I guess we miss those days, because we didn't know what the future could be. It could be fucking anything.Now we fucking experienced it with onlyfans, tiktok, influencers, hipsters, prankers and all that other garbage, and it absolutely sucks. As kids we didn't know that yet.
>>750299895Who cares about that, I was having fun playing old PS2 games in my mud hut in Azerbaijan
>>750296796Ya gotta grow up sometime
>>750299993It's rational disliking living in a dystopia. No one knows they're in one until it's too late, and if you're young, it's difficult to accept that you live in one if that's all you know.If someone had told 16 year old me that one day, all corporations would track you 100% of the time, they will record everything you say and do, and use that information to train programs to trick you into being angry so that they can extract ad money from other corporations, and that everyone everywhere will spend between 1 and 4 hours per day staring at their cell phones, and that you will be expected to be available for work 24/7 and not being available will be seen as both a career failure and a social failure, I would have said you are nuts. Who would ever, in a million billion years, accept living like that? They make shitty B-movies about societies like that and everyone laughs at them because it's so unbelievably stupid that anyone would ever accept it.But here we fucking are.
in 2007 everyone was playing captain king (halo3) and cod4 though
