I've been noticing a lot of zoomers online BEGGING for remakes of their favorite video games that came out for consoles like the XBOX360 or the PS3, as if they were published ages ago. I can't see how a game like Gears of Wars would benefit from a new engine or new graphics - the original version is fine as it is. Just think about how long did our parents have to wait for the re-release of Star Wars. What is it with the zoomer sense of nostalgia? It's completely off.

>Fake zoomer nostalgia
i have never seen these three words in conjunction before, but i just realized zoomers genuinely have nothing to be nostalgic about except broccoli hair, tiktok, and spongebob season 9000

Staw wars was re released in 1997 20 years after original

Gears of war was released in 2006, 19 years ago

You are getting old gramps, 20 years is the standard timeframe for looking back on Nostalgia

Post modernism. We're seeing the death of old media as its slowly been supplanted by the Internet. The 'irony' (in reality this is skepticism) of post-modernism and self-awareness of it is inherently reliant on a grand narrative. It cannot create it can only deconstruct or reference itself, it's designed to kill media not recycle it. 99% of consumers will take whatever slop you put in their trough and be content, while post-modern media can be repetitive and sustain itself indefinitely on its own references (like anime) it is always dependent on a greater narrative for its meta. Media can run like this forever, it's cheaper, easier to reproduce, but ultimately will result in exhaustion once it runs out of narratives to draw from. I'd like to be optimistic and say 'at that point people will move on' but anime has been in a death spiral since the 2000s and people still consume it in mass quantities.

Star wars was the only movie about space wizards
20 years passed and they wanted more space wizards

Xbox360/PS3 Were the last consoles where gaming wasn't just microtransactions and endless expansions
Gamers want to go back to games that aren't just microtransactions and endless expansions

I mean look at Blizzard, the company had to re-release the original World Of Warcraft because everyones tired of the 20th expansion

It's a good thing. If all the zoomers died today no one would remember the golden era.

You can't seriously say there's been a major jump from the 360 to the Xbox one

You are retarded. Every single person who has ever existed has nostalgia and says the exact same thing about the newer generation. Change the fucking record.

It's fake zoomer nostalgia the same way millennials had fake nostalgia over games they never played, like Final Fantasy 7 or Chrono Trigger.
It's just things they say because they think it makes them sound cool.
I also see it with zoomers on woW telling me they totally played during Vanilla or BC when they would have been like 1 year old. Brother, I didn't play during vanilla and it just a game, idk why they lie about shit like this. Reminds me of when that weird kid that wore a cape to school was telling everyone they had a Komodo dragon as a pet in their pool at home.
