I want game manuals back
Oh yeah, I'd devour those whenever I was waiting for my turn on the TV. Used to be helpful shit in there, too
I'd read them in the car on the way home from the local non chain video rental store. I was never allowed to rent mortal kombat though

Play Tunic!
ooOOoOoh I’m younger than TES Oblivion oOOooh)The meaning of "retro" got frozen at the 2D/3D transition for quite a while, but it's long past time to move to a new definition: a console becomes retro when they sunset the online connectivity
"Retro" just means "it happened before I was old enough to enjoy it".
Just like "old" means "anyone older than me".
Maybe a more objective measure is "if it is older than people who are now adults, it's retro".

Introduce them to SSX3. I've been chasing that high ever since
I still emulate it on my phone today
Why did they stop giving us whole mountains with cool shortcuts and crazy parks that weren't too crazy?

I am the ancient seer on top of the mountain that played Final Fantasy 1 when it was first localized. 
Final Fantasy is a 1987 role-playing video game developed and published by Square.
I looked forward to weekend at my Dad's because his roommate had an Atari 800.
So you can all shut the fuck up and kindly step off my lawn.

I'll accept THPS2 as somewhat retro
Hm, feel like we need one more gen til the 360 is "retro/vintage", feels too recent still for those monikers.
Like for the Original Xbox it feels right, but 360's too new imo.

It always confused me how he made that work if you didn't design your character to look like Eric Sparrow.

I remember playing Burnout Paradise as a wee'un and loving it, that was the only Burnout game I ever played. Burnout 3 came out a few years before Paradise and I never really heard about it so I guess it was "before my time".
Burnout 3 is probably the best burnout game, it's not open world like paradise, but everything else is better in my opinion. Though my opinion could be clouded by nostalgia.

Burnout Paradise, while a great game, doesn't even have Crash Mode, which was one of the best parts of the original Burnouts.

I played those games as a kid and I'm only in my mid 20s... Burnout 3 was the first proper console game I got, in a bundle with Need For Speed Underground 2 and a PlayStation 2 for Christmas.
I was a high schooler 
I've seen people here say "my childhood Nintendo Switch" and it instantly made my back hurt.
I once read a comment that started with “I was born in 2003” and I immediately crumbled into dust
the first THUG game felt old during the 360's time, that shit is hard retro by now.
