>PS2 is retro
It is, though.
t. Zoomer
/vr/ agrees with it
/vr/ is full of "le wrong generation" "I love old vidya!" zooms.
I'm 37 and even I know its retro. The PS2 is already twice as old as NES when NES was considered retro
There's no excuse
>does anyone else have nostalgia for 2016 fortnite
Fun fact, a sealed copy of Fortnite 1.0 for PS4 goes for quite a bit of money. In 20 years it will become the Pokemon Red equivalent for this generation of zoomers.
>go on ebay
>search up ps4 fortnite game box
>priced at $80 or $160
it sounds a lot less crazy when you think that, in 2018, there were people who were unironically nostalgic about das1
youre not even old youre just stupid
me
it's a 6 year old game
DMC literally takes little skill that's a good thing.
I you're nerd and wanna get CUUURHAZY!! They gave us more difficulties and bloody palace. But overall it's arcadey yeah
Oh boy another "I made up something to get angry about!" thread
>DMC
>RE4
>Soul Calibur
PS2 being retro is the only accurate thing. Zoomers only play hero shooters, battle royales, things like Rocket League and Warzone, anyway.
Older zoomers who were born in the late 90s and 2000 absolutely grew up with DMC, RE4 and Soul Calibur (either that or they grew up with early CoD, Battlefield, Halo and CS). You're thinking of younger Zoomers born in 2003-2012
Born in 2000 here. Not true, loads of people that were in my class wore (and still wear) that kind of shitty haircut. I was the only one that stood out because I had that barbarian long hair-style.
I dunno because here 1998gay, people were all wearing the hitler youth style haircuts
I saw both types of haircuts where I am from
Zoomers are in their late 20s and I have high doubts that this board is full of 25+ people considering the state of the catalogue right now
hell in 2 years they'll be hitting their 30s.
and I'll welcome them because it will kill the boomer/zoomer shitposting threads like these once zoomers hit that age
these threads are just an elaborate way to vent their anger towards people that are young and having fun. A bygone age that the mentally ill in this board already went past it
>these threads are just an elaborate way to vent their anger towards people that are young and having fun. A bygone age that the mentally ill in this board already went past it.
Nah, my life is great and I still enjoy vidya. I just like to make fun of zooms, it's entertaining. But I don't hate them.
>zoomers
>late 20s
You're thinking the last 2 years of millennials that are in their late 20s.
the official cutoff year is 1995 and it's been the consensus since 2017
People between 1995-2000 are their own semi-generation. You wouldn't see this haircut in pre-2000 gays
>gens are defined by haircuts
man you're gonna suffer so fricking bad as the years pass by you and all you do is seethe and moan
Yes.
>Boomers
Long hair on men, eventually big hair on women
>Gen X
Feathered hair, mullets
>Millennials
Man buns
>Zoomers
Broccoli cut
Stupid hair styles are the best way to define a generation
now this is schizoposting
>Dude you can't use generational fashion as short hand for a generation
No zoomer has a man bun
the only thing you had to do was to say that youre talking in generalisations, the only thing
but instead you doubled down
lmao
by your logic, there were 8 generations between Gen X and Millennial you fricking moron
whatever helps you cope I guess. This is like the third excuse made ITT alone
holy fricking autism
gens are generally definited by cultural stuff associated with them (including haircuts)
Hey, don't lump me in with the 1996-2000 zoomers! I've spent almost half my life on this shitty site.
Probably the same reason why things are "fr fr" even if no French people are involved.
we are zillenials
I don't want to be associated with millenials in any way, I think I'll just stick with zoomer.
Then that doesn’t even make sense because that would place me at early 96 as an extremely early zoomer and I’m 26. So either zoomers aren’t that old or “late 20s” is used very loosely.
or maybe
just maybe
time moves whether you like it or not
I don't care about being labelled a zoomer boomer doomer loomer, "zoomers are all in their late 20s" makes me irrationally upset because it makes no goddamn sense.
>"zoomers are all in their late 20s" makes me irrationally upset because it makes no goddamn sense.
well it does because that's how it was classified. Maybe you're just angry because you found out you're a zoomer. Like you said, it shouldnt matter but it somehow affected you after the revelation
the cutoff year is 97 dumbass
>Late 20s
Gen z started in 98. The oldest zoomer is 24. And the majority of the generation is still under 20. The hate is warranted.
>1995
>1998
>2000
Make up your fricking minds. If you wanna make up a meme generation at least do it right. I miss when we just said "i'm from X decade"
>larger file size = higher quality
>larger budget = higher quality
>in game god modes = quality of life improvements
>larger file size = higher quality
>larger budget = higher quality
I don't think the generation that grew up playing Minecraft and Roblox believes this.
>when will [game] be remade?
>what are the chances [game] gets a remake?
Why are you spending time around zoomers?
I don't care what zoomers say
I can't believe how much I hate zoomergays
You telling me that if it was 2001, the NES wouldn't actually be retro because it only came out 20 years ago?
Does ""retro"" refer to an era or an amount of time having passed?
I disagree with the assessment that the PS2 isn't retro, but if you ask me, it's not just age. It's sort of a sliding window.
Retro is defined as a certain amount of difference from modern. When "modern" was making huge leaps, "retro" moved forward quickly as well. Nobody in their right mind would tell you the SNES wasn't retro when the Gamecube was current.
However, the 7th gen was the start of an era of utter stagnation in game design. Every genre that had existed since before the 7th gen saw only moderate improvements and tweaks in the 7th gen. No entirely new graphical styles became possible, only better conceptions of old ones. We stopped making huge leaps forward. So, naturally, the definition of "retro" slowed to a crawl as well. Without huge technological and stylistic leaps to separate them, it took a fricking eternity for enough minor standards/QOL tweaks to pile up to distinguish the 6th gen as "retro", but it did eventually happen.
Actual good answers, I was expecting the OP to be pulling my leg by putting that at the end of all the other valid takes.
Have you recently played any PS2 games, grandpa?
Borderline unplayable in some cases. The Atari 2600 to snes gap to modern games is evident.
Either you stopped playing games in the ps2 Era or you haven't played any recently.
I'm saying the PS2 IS retro you moron. Just that it's not as much a leap as, say, SNES to Gamecube, to go from PS2 to now.
Kinda is though. Boomers probably also coped how atari is still state of the art because it has colors.
You're just getting old man. Try playing a PS2 game once in a while. It's closer to wonky mid 90s 3D than to modern games.
It's barely above n64.
You probably brainwashed yourself into reading blocky low poly graphics as "modern and new" somewhere around 2000. Controls are shit too often.
Yeah, that's not even remotely the case. Maybe a small section of the PS2's library, but the 6th gen as a whole is filled with games that play pretty much perfectly fine by modern standards. Are you going to tell me the original Halo is virtually unplayable compared to modern equivalents? Super Mario Sunshine? Sonic Adventure 2?
>but the 6th gen as a whole is filled with games that play pretty much perfectly fine by modern standards
That's not true at all.
It's just that you have weird standards to what constitutes as "modern" because you're old.
But maybe I shouldn't be too hard on the elderly.
Like whatever man, it's just video-games. Don't you have grandkids to visit?
>moron is actually going to tell me Halo is radically different from any modern FPS
Holy SHIT.
Halo on the Xbox doesn't play anything like apex, grandpa. Like what the frick are you even on? Try replaying it.
Mario bros is also still perfectly playable.
Man you guys aren't just geriatrics you're also morons.
>Halo on the Xbox doesn't play anything like apex, grandpa
It plays a hell of a lot closer to Apex than it does to Doom, and there's more years between it and Apex than there are between it and Doom.
I'm not saying is perfectly playable. I'm saying It compares to modern hack and slash games, there's not much diference. Drink your tit milk, stupid zoomie, you need it.
>Wah wah, mean old man!
The zoomer retreats in cowardice
>Try playing a PS2 game once in a while. It's closer to wonky mid 90s 3D than to modern games.
Go and play Ninja Gaiden Black on the original xbox. Is nothing like mid 90s games moron. It compares to modern hack and slash games just fine.
I was calling genesis retro at that point but it was more clear back then that retro referred to 2D sprite based games while modern games were typically fully 3D. I can appreciate the confusion now that games look and play relatively the same as stuff from 15 years ago. Back then a generation was a huge leap.
>implying zoomers know what any of that is
All they play is GTA
Retro means "game style/mechanics are not made outside of gimmicks" not an arbitrary number of years. All platformers and point and clickers are retro, so are all boomer shooters. No games with tank controls are mainstream anymore so those are retro. Games like Halo 1 are still made so it will never be retro until they stop being made. Prove me wrong.
Are you sure that wouldn't be "antique"?
>Retro means "game style/mechanics are not made outside of gimmicks" not an arbitrary number of years
I'm sure you totally didnt make this up ever since PS2 reached over 15 years old
Late PS2 games are not retro but early ones can be. Late PS2 games are just modern games with worse graphics, still the same design philosophy and mechanics etc.
you still trying to change definitions out of fear of aging boy?
I have yet to hear an actual zoomer say any of those statements.
"zoomer" is Gankers version of israelites
holy shit
actually fricking true
anon cracked the code
>NOOOO!! YOU CAN'T MAKE THREADS ABOUT THE SAME TOPIC, OVER AND OVER AGAIN!!
>>RE4 has tank controls
re4 has the worst fricking controls I have ever experienced, even the originals on ps1 play better
"Retro is a style!" is a cope term made a bunch of idiots that dont want to admit the passage of time. These are the same morons that you find in nursing homes babbling about cars and TV along with making comics about beating their wives
Why are millennialcucks so obsessed with gen z? That's sad.
same reason why Gen X is obsessed with millenials. History repeats itself
Shitting on them is not obsession.
sure sounds like it lol
No, It's a cope you're making up.
>I'M NOT OBSESSED! YOU ARE! ITS TOTALLY NORMAL TO MAKE THREADS 24/7 ABOUT PEOPLE THAT DONT EVEN AFFECT ME!
take your meds brah
I'm not the one making these threads, I just like to post on them. It's fun because you guys are easily baited. I'm sure multiple people think the same and keep making similar threads.
I recently talked with my zoomer (19) coworker about the PS2 and he considers it retro for some reason. He also thinks it had a very lackluster catalog, which should tell you enough about how much of a moron he actually is.
The PS2 is in fact retro. Gen 6 took longer to become retro than any prior generation, but it still happened eventually.
I am willing to bet my entire networth that these threads are just zoomers convincing other zoomers that they're not zoomers because this kind of shit never happened 5 years ago
PS2 is retro because TV technology has LITERALLY MOVED FORWARD ENOUGH THAT REAL PS2 CONSOLES DO NOT WORK RIGHT ON MODERN TELEVISIONS.
i don't really understand these thread. Stop shitting on a younger generation.
no
It's just weird, i don't remember this happening between the 90s and the 80s.
Because children born in the late 90s and after (aka this entire site) weren't prepared for the fear of aging out
> we give a shit
Wtf is "retro"?
something old, but boomers are currently trying to twist that meaning out of pure desperation
They say pic related, guess what "old game" eerie vibe that's so dissonant they're on about, I'm surprised backrooms weren't mentioned.
Fricking Mario Kart Wii, which they're the same age as
That hairstyle only exists to hide their receding hairline
how come you morons only started calling Retro "a style" very recently? the meaning is still about how old something is since the dawn of this word and a bunch of morons on this board is trying to convince people that its something else
What changed?
>What changed?
wanna know the most common thing people do when they fear of aging? make a change for the worst for the future generations
Well, you're leaving out the part where the trends have to shift such that the thing falls out of use/popularity for awhile. Jeans and t-shirts aren't retro, they're just... currently popular, and have been for a long time. Styles of them that came in and out of popularity like bell bottom jeans can be called retro.
yo cyberpunk bussin
ITT: balding + mad
this board's gonna get even shittier when zoomers hit 30 and then a new buzzword's gonna be invented because you Black folk just cant help it
Why does it "slap" if no one was physically touched?
I have a ponytail and a short beard, and I dress like Alan Wake
Ganker as frick
Zoomers are old now. Half of them are already losing their hair. Little by little.
I just looked out my window and saw an old guy do the following:
>carrying plastic bag
>puts plastic bag down
>puts hands on his sides/hips
>looks around
>then just picks the bag up and walks off again
What the FRICK is wrong with boomers, holy shit.
He got tired. Once the adrenaline rush from your frustration runs its course, it will happen to you too.
all of these are correct though
I think zoomers would definitely love older stuff that millennials liked
>RE4 has tank controls
It does, and I've been saying this since 2004.
zoomers do the floss
DMC is kind of arcadey I guess. Then again I'm technically a zoomer so you're right regardless.
Boomer here. Soul Calibur 2-3 were the best, you stupid moron. I bet you enjoy the cutscene simulator that is 6.
>Soul Calibur 3 is the best
This is true.
4 is trash 5 is shit 6 is better than the previous two mentioned.
arent zoomers like 25 now? thats boomer tier compared to current teens
>2d graphics?
>not playing your garbage
I would consider Wii and PS3 retro.
>dedicated servers?
>in-game voice chat?
>expansion packs?
>Bioware, Bethesda, and Blizzard were good?
Bioware was never good
Bethesda's one good game was Morrowind, Oblivion is flawed soul
Blizzard's only good games were Diablo and Diablo 2
>2d pokemon? what's that?
RE4 having tank controls is an objective fact
>cracka-lack brodie i be wishin' for dat bussin' ish naw mean fuuuug mayne shieeet
>shiet daaahwg i gotta go get me the more the vape juice dat flav be bussin' *turns on hip hop song*
every -oomerposting faceberg newbie homosexual should be violently removed from the gene pool
naw dawg chillll you ever had pussy? shietttt
But RE4 DOES have tank controls you moron, it just positions the camera behind you instead of from a fixed perspective
>PS2 Games look fine in 4k if you install some shitty mods
>soulslike
As a 20 year old whos browsed for 7 years I refuse to believe there’s this many old ppl on this site
How old are you people? 30? Have you even had sex yet?
Shit boomers do in games:
>spending 20h choreographing their cuhrazee webms on DMC and pretending it's natural and raw talent
>get angry at modern horror games because they can't abuse moronic AI and tank controls to avoid shit
>pretend fighting games are great but shit on all of them unless the roster is custom tailored to their niche tastes
>act like the NES was peak gaming but never owned one
pills now grampa
