Well it turned 15 back in October.

And the Xbox 360 turned 10 in November. It's retro too.

I wonder if the other PS2 thread ever got nuked?

>> No.2849736

I'm of the opinion that 6th gen and up should never be allowed since thats the generation that video games "grew up" so to speak. That was the generation where arcades no longer played into the equation what so ever and we started seeing a homogeneous experience across all platforms. PC included.

But that means we can never talk about Ace Attorney or Battle Network.

I was about to call all kinds of bullshit but it's true.

>> No.2849754

The only other platforms that should be relegated to retro status at this point are GBA and WonderSwan(Color)

I'd like to discuss GameCube here as well, but it probably wouldn't be fair to make an exception for GC while ignoring PS2 and Xbox.

Someone posted an image of a multitude of PS2 games of various genres. I feel the same should be done for the XBox, GBA, and Gamecube, and shipped off to the new owner while saying "I feel the cut-off date for PC games should be 2005 and that 6th gen can be discussed".

Knowing 4chan such things already exist. I and several others are likely tired of talking about the same stuff over and over. I'm sure a lot of the shitposting here is largely a result of boredom and frustration.

>> No.2849771

a complaint i see is the amount of shitposting and bait that would go on if 6th gen were allowed, but i bet after a day or two that would stop (/v/ would get bored)

Every time the subject comes up, people go on about the Halo fanboy bogeyman. I guarantee you, if XBox was allowed, there would immediately be a Halo thread which will turn out to be someone shitposting like a faggot.

Remember when /q/ was a thing? /tv/ autists would spam no-content threads of random generic celebrities, screencap the catalog, and cry about how they needed a /celeb/ board.

No. I'm not even entirely sure that Dreamcast can be considered retro. N64/PS1 can stay because otherwise we'd have a lot less to talk about.

6th gen is tricky. Tons of games I would love to chat about but most conversations would probably drift into a halo shitfest. I think maybe a good compromise would be to let sequels of previous generations franchise's allowed to be talked about. So stuff like MGS2, Melee, Twisted Metal Black, and Orta would be alright. Idk just a thought.

Why the fuck is Halo such a boogie man? Its not like there's a bunch of dudebros hanging out just waiting to flood the board. Goldeneye was the dudebro shooter before Halo, and those threads don't shit up the board more than anything else.

If anything, what really shits up Goldeneye threads is mustards coming in and spamming "It doesn't have [insert PC feature here] so it's shit!"
