    I thought you were right and even in the case of boomer shooter you could argue „well it was made by some boomers“ but this is a game from 2007, fuck that.

      It always felt obvious to me that it was a metaphor, I didn’t think I’ve met someone who legit believed boomer shooters were boomer games.

      Most boomers, I think, were too old by the time video games were exciting and commonplace to start drawing numerous people so it’s fairly rare for a baby boomer to be a gamer.
