1080 Snowboarding was first released March 1998 - The fact that I ordered the N64 expansion pack off FB marketplace last week with this game in mind was fitting.
It's tough, I think the words retro or vintage or anything along those lines are very subjective. For me I depends one the subject matter and how quickly things in a specific category advance and chan...more
Specifically Super Mario Bros. I’d say 25 years for retro. A car is a classic after 25 years. So 1999 sound right. Ugghhhh I was in high school in ‘99….
My plan was to beat the whole game. I murdered dozens of men and women in first few levels no problem. Then couldn’t figure out how to get across this 1 foot gap in the bridge. And apparently I canâ...more
This quest is a great reason to start Episode 3. And as for the line? I suppose its relative. For my kids? Anything in the 90s or early 2000s would be retro for them? For me? Farther back.
A great excuse to post about one of my favorite games growing up!
Those who play Mario kart with me know I love variety and I always loved having a bunch of different powers/characters to use in t...more
Best easter ever when I got this one. As for where's the line? Anything N64 and older is retro. PS1 to ps2/xbox are post-retro era. X360 and Ps3/Wii to the Ps4/Xone/WiiU are the modern era. After that...more
1996 classic. On original hardware.
Google says 20 years can be considered retro, but I can’t accept calling Mario Sunshine a retro game… This one on the other hand, could definitely be conside...more
I knew the Cr3w would be expecting me to play this one! And like Rick Astley, I’m not going to let you down!
And for good measure I was racing as Banjo so I could combine Rare’s 2 greatest franch...more
I’m already working on my 24 in 24 challenge, so it works! And taking this back to 1992, which apparently is before @rey was born, and I had already spent twelve years in the corporate world.
"Hey, let's have everyone play something retro."
"How do we set a date for what we call retro?"
"I know. Jedi is old. When did he graduate from high school? Oh wow. It's been 25 years."
