How do you look back at the early 2000s era of video games now?
How do you look back at the early 2000s era of video games now?
the GOAT era.
video games died with 6th gen.
I don't because I'm not a manchild stuck in his glory days
Don't you mean 7th gen?
We need to go back...
Wish you could have died with them you eternal boomer
It was the last time gaming was still somewhat pure. There was little to no internet influence, no dlc corruption, high standards on game releases, etc.
Last gen and current gen suffer so much thanks to the internet eclipsing the landscape and creating so many issues. Pre-internet gaming was GOAT.
7th gen was just interactive movies with a few gems strewn throughout just like now
6th gen was the last time that japanese games were dominant in the west.
The kinds of games I liked were already dead by that point.
Couldn't you have picked some good games for 2004 instead of a bunch of Nintendo bullshit and Sonic faggotry?
AAA development peaked in 6th gen. Creative enough to push the boundaries, but small and efficient enough to not become bloated, boring messes. I'll take back the hordes of movie tie-in shovelware games if it meant getting a major new release that wasn't an unfinished, MtX-ridden, focus tested disaster.
>wojaks
>hilariously out of touch with modern culture
This image is a fucking mess lmao
oh shit I'm sorry, should be cyberpunk, gdq trannies, and mothafuckin grimes nigga nigga music
Mid-late 90s to early-mid 00s are era with the highest proportion of quality games in existence.
Form mid 00s to early 10s is the worst time in computer gaming history, with the most homogenization and least variety and quality in game output.
Minecraft, Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Infinite Warfare and Battlefield 4? How old is this picture?
>t. played san andreas religiously
Absolutely not. 7th gen introduced the majority of cancer we see today.
>paid online
>early access
>death of dedicated servers
>DLC
>season passes
>yearly rehashes
>microtransactions in full priced games
>brown, grey & piss filters galore
and listened to K Rose, how can you tell?
It was a weird transitional era. The first half of the gen was probably the last time gaming was relatively consistently good, but the latter part of the era is when the industry started going to shit.
Tis a shame because early 7th gen, i.e. 2006-2008 with some leftovers in 09 and 10 was extremely promising, but even that period already had that cancer started. Shit, some of that cancer can be even pointed out in late 6th gen.
Honestly, the 90s should annex 2000-early 2004 games and cartoons. They were basically 90s in spirit.
The only good K-Rose song is Amos Moses and you know it
Wrecking ball is a good song tho
Has your only contact with the outside world been Yas Forums for the past half decade?
nah my friends don't give a shit about pop culture we just do drugs together
t. zoomer
>t. actual nigger
day of the rope soon you filthy monkey
Fuck off, Wojakshitter.
Pretty based actually
I dunno, while the trends were already starting in the late 90s early 00s cartoons are extremely distinct, like that thick line style
i dont cuz im not an old fuck who doesnt belong here or a nostalgiafag from reddit
The golden age
paid online,dlc, and brown grey started with 6th gen
timesplitters 2 - 4player co-op,loser gets punched in the arm from all others.
now im just fat and bald
miss those times.
Games peaked with the risk-taking to production value ratio that was present in the Sega Dreamcast. Big developers and publishers were willing to pour money into really absurd games and they toyed with a lot of innovative gameplay ideas.
i'm not a monkey, you ape!
I don't know if I'd agree. In addition to a lot of 90s cartoons overlapping into the 2000s, such as SpongeBob, Ed Edd n Eddy, Powerpuff Girls, and Courage the Cowardly Dog, lots of cartoons from the early 2000s could have come out in the 90s. Fairly OddParents, Jimmy Neutron, Teen Titans, Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy, My Life as a Teenage Robot, and Samurai Jack were all basically 90s cartoons.
Videogames died in 2006.
I feel like people who start these early 2000s nostalgia threads are people born in 95 and 96 who dont want to admit they are 00s kids
is the simpsons a 80s cartoon?
it started in 88-89
It started in the late 80s but didnt become an absoulte monster till the 90s. So you be the judge.
Depends how you define 80s cartoon. It debuted in the 80s, but most of its best episodes came out in the 90s. It definitely feels more 90s if you ask me.
Goddamn I miss my childhood. Waking up to Courage, going to sleep to Samurai Jack, actually enjoying videogames instead of being depressed and worried about the world all the time.
see
Eh, close, I was 92. My first systems were an early IBM PC and a Turbografx.
Why is 2004 a bunch of 90s stuff? There's no PS2 games at all and that console was just about ready to move on in 2004 with the 7th generation launching in a year or two. Super Mario 64 was 8 (eight) fucking years old at that point. Playing old shit doesn't count, since you can do that in "Now".
Does anyone on here ever admit to be born in the 2000s? I notice sometimes people let it slip but its very rare for anyone to admit to being born any later then about 92ish. With 95 being the woe upon you year of birth. I was born in 95.
>2004
>Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis
About a decade too late for that.
People were a lot more connected to the past in 2004 than they are now. Especially the 90s, since it had just ended.
You know how many zoomers say they don't listen to any music, watch any movie, or play any video game before 2005? The past suddenly became considered "old stuff". In 2004 people appreciated the past more.
trolling or not, i read a post from somebody claiming to be born in 2007 and it just depressed me.
>Samurai Jack
Definitely not that one though
Only one episode came out in the 80s unless you count the shorts
Cultural decades are partially arbitrary anyway, trends don't change instantly and they overlap. Early 90s were similar to late 80s in many ways but also different in others.
> Game display kiosks.
The fact these aren't a thing anymore says a lot about the industry and none of it is flattering
Nobody says this stop repeating this shit
That means there are people on the Internet, who consider Hannah Montana before their time.
Wow.
Sony: They didn't surpass the PS1 but did really good.
Microsoft: Surprisingly good entrance, lots of cool games not a lot of people paid attention it.
Nintendo: Massively disappointing after the flop that was the N64, the SNES days long over Nintendo's future looked incredibly bleak as their present was an absolute joke.
PC: lol ded
Sega: Dreamcast wasn't as great as the Saturn but they had a good run, a decade of bad decisions caught up to them.
I started posint on here in 2011 when I was an underage. There must be at least one user if not many many users born after 2010. Imagine that nightmarish thought.
>he waited for 7th gen to get paid online and DLC
This is true. I grew up in the 90's and I was exposed to a ton of shit from the 40's and up.
No. 2D gaming, a staple of the 90s, was already mostly dead by the early-mid 2000s.
>PC gaming dead in the early 00s
>You know how many zoomers say they don't listen to any music, watch any movie, or play any video game before 2005?
None. You are out of touch and this might be a sign you need to backflip off a bridge onto concrete. Move on in life, that kind of thing.
2D gaming was a staple of the first half of the 90s. The second half was dominated by 3D games.
>Wojaker trying to retcon the past to include Wojak.
>there are anons posting here that werent alive when Yas Forums was created
The occasional zoomer might make exceptions. I'm sure they'd give Lil Jon a pass even though he was before 2005. I'm also sure he's the ONLY artist before 2005 they'd give a pass.
This is why I loved GBA games, it was an excuse for devs to continue doing what they did in the 90s
yes that is what i said
Okay zoomer
the last century was racist and irredeemable. Why would you watch content from it?
Calm down reddit race, PC gaming was never good.
The hell are you even talking about? You sound so out of touch with the current world and media
>demo stations are now virus repositories
>they will all be dismantled
>no more demo stations
It is well-known that zoomers are the most closed-minded group of people. I'm not even trying to insult all zoomers, but in general, zoomers tend to live more in a bubble. This is because of having access to smartphones and social media from a young age.
Now, it's not good to make sweeping generalizations. But I have heard people say they refuse to listen to/watch/play old stuff.
My god you post the same shit in every thread. If I copypasted your shit into some archive shit it would show your spam in multiple threads
