The fact that even 3D games are old now blows my mind on a regular basis. (lemmy.world)

I suppose this is what getting older feels like.

I am with you on this one, but ask people who are in the business or "retro" and/or ask people who are 15-20yo today! it's a sad truth: 2 generations ago and you're already "retro" :)

Actually I'm in my 20s myself. I just can't see games like Call of Duty 4, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, GTA 4 and The Last of Us as retro when they are largely identical to what we would expect from a modern AAA title.

2007 was a long time ago, but not much has changed since then in mainstream big budget game development.
