There are technically adult people in the West who have never interacted with a Playstation 2

I'm older than the PS2 but I've never actually seen one with my own two eyes

The Gamecube is older now than the NES was when Gamecube came out.

 

[MantisOrientalis]

still in bewilderment that the 3DS is over a decade old now.

Nirvana's Nevermind (1991) is chronologically closer to the Beatles first album (Please Please Me, 1963) than it is to the present.

The origin of vaporwave itself, as defined by the release of "nobody here" was 13 years ago.

The iPod was released in 2001, nowadays it's a foreign concept to have a dedicated media player not be a part of another device. There used to be portable DVD players that only had the job of playing DVD's, nothing else. Used to have one for long car rides.

WHAT?! I THOUGHT YOU WERE LIKE, 30!

WHAT?! I THOUGHT YOU WERE LIKE, 30!

It's funny you mention this bc Aral thought the same until a profile post of mine made her realize we were born in the same year. To make this even funnier I'm going to recount a story that happened last October when we we celebrating my brother-in-laws 21st birthday. I was noticing that I wasn't getting carded at the bar whereas everyone else around me was. So I asked the date of someone who was there who didn't know me at all how old she thought I was and she answered 32. I guess I just give off old man vibes . Anyways no I am not 30 I'm 24 and it will never not be funny to me that people think I'm older than I am. That shit cracks me up

I'm just barely old enough to have been able to play PS2 games, but I never had one cause I wasn't allowed to have a game console until I was 10, and my neighbor had the OG Xbox so when I went to his house it was always to play various racing games and Halo 1 splitscreen multiplayer. However I do remember the local McDonald's had a line of PS2s along with I think Katamari Damacy or some game like that which I used to play occasionally. Eventually we stopped going there though because McDonalds is absolute garbage.

I have a video showing me playing in the front yard as a toddler on the morning of 9/11, but I was too young to remember it

I have family footage somewhere of my sister turning 5 on 9/11 and my parents tried to keep it a normal day for us. It's a weird piece of footage that I don't really know how to respond to currently

That's funny as hell, I'm older than you and get carded all the time - even when younger people do not.

This is wild. I was in elementary school on 9/11 in New York State but not NYC. We all knew damn well it was not a normal day by like 11:00 am. That was a pretty crazy day.

I'm also very late 90's gang. Guess I'm just a poorfag who played on legacy consoles for longer than you guys. I myself was a gamecube kid and played mostly anime beat'em up games on my friends PS2. How old do you thought i am?? (How did you evade these consoles, did your families/friends families just throw them away or bury them in the backyard or whatnot??)
Anyway, game below was the GOAT, still has amazing Soundtrack with varying styles (one for each of the 6 characters you play). The linked tracks below are first, the most unique track and 2. the most track that got me most hyped as a small kid.

2018 being 5 years ago hurts my head. 2013 was 10 years ago. Time is moving too fast.

I played that game on my friend's sega dreamcast growing up. I have a feeling I would hate the game now though so I'm content to leave it to my nostalgia.
