Kakarot2020 0 Posted January 2, 2023 Yeah...kinda interesting to know that people did use crts for the 7th gen consoles tooat least during the earlier years of itits kinda weird to think about these modern games being run on a crtsounds kinda oddthese modern games like xbox 360 and ps3 games aged perfectly today Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Altaninort 0 Posted January 2, 2023 ehhhit dependsearlier games from that period haven't aged all the bestusually in the looks department Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kakarot2020 0 Posted January 2, 2023 i wouldn't straight up call xbox 360 or ps3 "retro"even in a couple of yearsthey don't look that dated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gunslingerkaras 0 Posted January 2, 2023 I think this has deviated from KH talk and should be taken over to now. 💀 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kakarot2020 0 Posted January 2, 2023 back to kingdom heartswould you consider kingdom hearts 2 to be "Retro"what is the cut off point for something to be considered Retro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Altaninort 0 Posted January 2, 2023 If Mario and stuff was considered retro in the 2000s. Then KH1 and KH2 can be considered retro now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kakarot2020 0 Posted January 2, 2023 Truebut, anything after the 6th generation should not be considered retro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Altaninort 0 Posted January 2, 2023 The problem is, is that those older games still dominate public conscious, and are what people think when you say retro. People aren't going to jump right to PS2 era games Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kakarot2020 0 Posted January 2, 2023 by that logic in a couple of years kingdom hearts 1.5 would be considered retro which i'm going to say bullshit to taht Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snakeskin94 13 Posted January 2, 2023 How retro is retro then?Is it by time or by how old the console Gen is? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kakarot2020 0 Posted January 2, 2023 Id consider something that was rather primiative in tearms of everything in a medium Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kakarot2020 0 Posted January 2, 2023 in gaming for example Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Altaninort 0 Posted January 2, 2023 The problem is that retro is kind of a looser term now. You could point to say, Super Mario Bros and Mario Sunshine. SMB is old, it's pixel-y, it's simple. Super Mario Sunshine was fresh and new and 3D. There was a large different in the look and feel of those games. There's a massive leap in the core look and feel of those games. But for stuff like Kingdom Hearts there largely isn't Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snakeskin94 13 Posted January 2, 2023 Cause tbh like, games like Uncharted 1-3 are feeling kinda retro to my old ass for instance lolOr like, Halo 1 or something Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kakarot2020 0 Posted January 2, 2023 the graphics of xbox 360 and ps3 i wouldn't consider primative in any way the games feel like playing blockbuster movies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Altaninort 0 Posted January 2, 2023 We aren't as likely to consider KH1 a retro game because it doesn't really feel or look to different at a glance from stuff nowadays, and fandom and internet culture has helped those older games stay fresher in peoples minds Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snakeskin94 13 Posted January 2, 2023 PS3 and 360 will be considered retro to the people who grew up with it, like us for PS1 and 2 stuff Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kakarot2020 0 Posted January 2, 2023 i would consider the cut off point for something to be retro would be 6 generation anything after is not retro Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Altaninort 0 Posted January 2, 2023 It's less weird to call Sonic 1 retro than it is to call like Sonic Heroes retroYou can't apply a cut off like that to something that largely denotes age Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kakarot2020 0 Posted January 2, 2023 like PS3 and XBOX 360 were the first consoles to use HDMIbeing a true hd consolei would not consider that retrohigh defintion i would call "Retro" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
