5th and 6th gen were pretty amazing, last gens to focus more on gaming.

Why those years? That makes no sense.

>>330719746
Because I was born in the mid 90's so I was just growing up at that time.

When normies get sick of buying online games, good games can finally rise again.

>>330714723
That's the Era where the cost of development was low enough for creative studios to produce new game ideas that were up to par. After that Gen, AAA games cost too much for developers to want to take risks. That's why games are so shitty now. Nobody takes risks.
>>
>>330714723
I don't know if those are the exact years I would use, but if we're talking those two gens, yes. Creativity was at an all time high with the advent of 3D games and studios were still investing in more niche/complex titles. The 'cinematic" trend hadn't taken over completely and microtransation was not a concept yet.

>>330715120

Gamecube and PS2 are my favourite consoles.
>>
>>330714852
are we really affiliating "poltically correct" with "marxism" now?

what the fuck.
>>
>>330714723
There were a lot of great games. Haloid ain't one of them.
