Do you guys think that 90's kids have better taste in vidya? Were they raised on better games and platforms?
>>
>>284134680
I think people misunderstand what a 90s kid is.

A 90s kid is someone who grew up during the 90s, i.e. someone who was old enough to remember being a kid during the 90s. If you were 3 or 4 years old when the 90s ENDED, you are not a 90s kid.

I don't go around calling myself an 80s kid since I was born in '88 - I'm a 90s kid.
>>
>>284135082
This, I was born in 1991 (albeit in early January) and I only really remember the second half of the decade - I don't really consider myself a "'90s kid", I wasn't even 10 when 2000 came around
>>
>>284135082
90s is a trendy thing among teenagers right now so everyone wants to be part of the "90s generation" for some reason although there wasn't really anything too special about it apart from video games and some music
>>
>>284135082
Exactly. 90's kid does not mean the time you spend learning to talk. It's more of being born in the late 80's.
>>
Any one who was born after 94 is not a 90 kid. Kids who are born after 85 but before 94 is a 90 kid.
>>
>>284135476
The 1990s didn't even have the best vidya, that was the first half of 2000 without a doubt. Countless great titles between 2000 and 2005, but you can only name the same few great games from the 1990s.

It reminds me of the feeling when you've liked a relatively unknown band for a long time, and then they suddenly get popular and out of nowhere all these assholes who've hardly listened to a single song are claiming to be huge fans because it's popular.

At least from a PC gamer's perspective the 90s were superb, tons of classic games and lots of whole new genres were created. With consoles the early 2000s might be better, but I think that the most definitive PC games, the kind of games that come first to my mind when I think of good PC games, were made in the 90s.

I was born in 92 and I never considered myself a 90's kid since "90's kid" in usually talking in relation to pop culture at the time and you don't become aware of that till you are around 11-13 usually. Kids eat up whatever shits on their plate, they have no taste.

I always thought "90's kid" was faggots born in the 80's who grew up in the 90's.

Born in '85 here, '92 has to be the absolute cutoff to be considered a 90's kid and even that is pushing it. the 90's stopped being the 90's in 97-98 anyway.

86 here, all you cunts are making me feel old.

I grew up poor, never had a SNES or a 64. Instead I had a Mega Drive and an old 486 with a bunch of demos, I used to troll on ICQ and Napster before I knew trolling was a thing.

I never saw why 2D platformers became so popular, I never got into Sanic / Wonderboy / Alex the Kidd and they had shitty or non existent save system. As soon as I played Spyro however I was hooked.

The best JRPGs were on the SNES but overall the Ps2 was the best era for them. They've fallen so much lately, I always wanted to see them with really good graphics but most of them just seem lacking.

Doom / Quake / Duke were fun as fuck, I did enjoy Battlefield 3 too but I wouldn't rush out to get the yearly rehashes. I sort of prefer Military shooters over WW2 shooters but over all I'm not a big fan of shooters.

Stuff like AssCreed feels too easy, I like the way they look though I don't like their whole 900p bullshit.

Also feels like there is a lack of good adventure games, as I said I missed out on Nintendo so I'm playing Zelda OoT and I see why its popular as it is.

i doesn't matter what you consider yourself, be grateful that being a 90s kid is considered such a cool thing. there was some bad ass vidya back then and it wasn't as oversaturated as it is now with triple a games and sjw. all that bullshit. so if you experianced any part of it youre basically a 90s kid, 2000s kid. doesnt matter. youre pretty old if you were born in probably anything in the 90s by now

The 90s was a golden age for a lot of things, but not really vidya. Especially in the US, if you were a 90s kid living in the US that was their golden age. Their economy was sky high, gas was ass cheap, the NSA wasn't shoving their noses up everyones asses and the sand monkeys weren't that big of an issue.

It all went to shit in the 2000s when our economy died and everyone became paranoid because of the twin towers. BUT the early 2000s had some of the best games ever made, I guess theres a tradeoff between good vidya and turmoil. Still, the 90s had some great entries, and the PC market was making a real mark with all their entries, mostly RTS and FPS. I was born in 1992, I lived to experience the height of the 90s and I can safely say it was way better than the last decade and this one. It's not nostalgia, the world has just gone to shit. Maybe that's why the teens are clinging to the 90s because they realize how crappy everything became. Hopefully I'll experience another golden age in my lifetime.

I was a kid in the 90s (born 89) and played mostly with the computer. Might be because I learned to read early and my dad was there to help me but I got the hang of installing games and playing even a bit more difficult games like WRPGs pretty fast. Even the CLI OS's were pretty easy to get a hang of. I also wasn't the only kid like that I knew.

But yeah PC elitism really only came in the later 90s I guess because that's when the PC really shone with its great exclusives which could actually use the superior hardware unlike modern games.

90's kids shouldn't list kids who were born at the tail end of the decade, they didn't experience it enough to form a solid opinion. I was born in 82, and I don't consider myself an 80's kid(I hardly remember anything about the 80's). I certainly consider myself a 90's youth, because I grew up then, which shaped a lot of who I am now. If they were born in the 90's, they were 2000's and onward. Which in a way is just about as good, since the early to mid 2000's had some really amazing games.

TL;DR I doubt anyone born in a certain time period has better taste than another person.

What made the 90's so cool for vidya is because it was the wild west of 3D games. Devs had to experiment with what worked and what didn't. Which resulted in some amazing experiences. It's a polar opposite of today, where devs tend to stick with what works and we see hardly any gameplay innovation.

>>284139710

Yes, you stop thinking about how old you are after you hit 40. Your 30s is full of panic because you're transitioning out of being a young adult into a proper grown man and you're worrying about previous regrets, things you haven't accomplished, etc. It gets a lot easier in your 40s, you just start accepting life for what it is.

It had nothing to do with wealth you moron.
The sega kids were jelly of megaman x and the nintendo kids were jelly of sanic's attitude. The poorest kid in our class had actually a snes, a genesis AND his father owned a pc and let him play larry.
He was a divorce kid, so the parents tried to bribe him with toys to get him stay the time at their flat.

his favourite genre were jrpg lel, so he prefered to play snes.

Well, where I live in the early 90s were the biggest economical slump in a long time and the economy never really recovered (I don't live in Japan btw) so the general mindset is that the 90s were a very unpositive time. But on the other hand, the 9/11 wasn't that big of a deal because it happened in America and America is far away. Early 2000s was positivity and economical growth.

But I still think that the 90s were the best era for gaming simply because of the innovation. Lots of new genres, early 3D games and lots of great classics like Doom, Looking Glass Studios, Ultima etc... Tons of innovation and general excitement everywhere. Especially the WRPG's peak is in the 90s. But again, this is a PC gamer's perspective.

Doom, Command and Conquer, Starcraft, The Sims(came out in Feb 2000 but I still count it as 90s), Warcraft, Myst, Diablo, Age of Empires, Populous, Theme games.

A lot of good entries for the PC, I was 8 years old by 2000 and I played a lot of those games by that period. Good thing I had parents who funded my interest in computers.

I was born in 85. What I enjoy most about my experience growing up is I felt like I got to witness the huge shift in technology. I still wish I was born a few years earlier to see it more fully but I remember starting off doing everything the 'old' way before technology (typewriters, libraries, etc.). I also got to enjoy the constant upgrades of video games from NES to n64 which was incredible to live through.

I jacked to anything that had a slight resemblance to tits.
I even masturbated to the iron maidens in quake 2. We only got internet in 1998. That was the first time I saw a vagina, so naturally I printed out a stack of 20 hardcore pornographic images with the desk jet in my dad's home office and gave them to all the kids in my class.

I remember all the schools closed early, and just about every place of business in town closed for the day to go home and watch the news. I wasn't really old enough to understand what was going on, but my parents wouldn't let me leave the house and ride my bike in the neighborhood for some reason. This confused me, as I was outside quite often by myself, but I played starfox 64 in my older sisters room while my parents and sisters crowded around the tv in the basement, because it was the only one in the house with cable.

I feel sorry for Americans for whom the early 2000s were a period of severe cultural angst, they were way fucking awesome over here.

If you are I'll assume 18, how much wiser do you feel you are than a 10 year old? Thanks.

the only reason this happens is because "90s kids" are so fucking hostile to 2000s kids
there is nothing wrong with being a 2000s kid, from 2000-2005 it was pretty much just a continuation of the 90s.

the only thing that you're right about is vidya and the economy, but even then, the 90s had the dotcom bubble.
Also, P.S., there were still a lot of wars in mudslime countries, although of course it was just a prelude to what was to come.
>It's not nostalgia, the world has just gone to shit you're comparing a decade that you spent the majority of your childhood in to a decade that you spent most of your angsty teen years in, and now you're in a decade where you're pretty much an adult.
if you ask any old person, they'll say the best decade was when they were kids. It is nostalgia buddy
>Maybe that's why the teens are clinging to the 90s because they realize how crappy everything became
no, 90s kids are just the first of the facebook/myspace generation to get old

>video games will never be as good as they were in the 90s and early 2000s

why are we still here? just to suffer?
