  You are a bad person.

  Why must you be so hurtful.

    I launched Arkham Asylum on steam earlier this week and it recommended a GTS9800 lmao.

    1GB ram, 2GB if you were running Vista.

  We’re gonna have to rethink definitions at some point. Yes, video games are still a comparatively new medium, but nobody would call a 2010 film a retro film, nevermind books or paintings.

    I define “retro” as anything made before an average Army Private was born, so about 19-20 years. By this standard, games released in the early 80’s were retro when the current generation of Privates was born, so how do we call that ? I propose the term “paleogaming” for those.

      By that definition, 9/11 is retro.
