That's a boomer take if I've ever heard one.

Generation Catalano. I don't like that last term though.

We can change it, he won't be offended. He can't even read.

Dang. That means they never taught you how to use a slide rule in science class?

We weren’t allowed to us a scientific calculator in trig, but if we could learn how to use a slide rule, we could.

I was born on 84. I like to think of myself as part of the Oregon Trail generation. Also according to Wikipedia it's also called Xennial and Generation Catalano. I don't like that last term though. I am not a Leto fan...

(read Wikipedia article. It's fascinating)

We should just start our own Oregon Trail generation designation.

Here’s a Gen X take… The Elliott Smith wannabe one hit wonder cover not as good as the New Wave original.

I will admit that this movie (which I used to love and now really dislike) did introduce me to a lot top notch 80s music; Tears For Fear, Echo &The Bunnymen, The Church.

Where does playing Oregon Trail put you on the boomer scale?

Oregon Trail is alive and well in Oregon, at least based on my kids’ experience in Portland Public Schools.

As an 87er I can agree with this. We're techy, up-to-date on many things pop culture and memes, yet seem to be grounded enough to not really get involved in all the BS. At least I like to think so.

Also an 87er and I concur.

This is the correct answer. And unless the schmohawk covering it is dancing like Roland Orzabal then it ain't shit.

Oregon Trail represent. Also Myst and then whatever that game was that was built into Encarta was called…

I also had a rad babysitter who snuck Duke Nukem and Full Throttle to our house. Used to play that all the time on our Gateway computer.

Myst....the most boring game full of so much mystery.
And hell yes the Encarta Mindmaze shoutout! This is the type of knowledge we need to protect in our collective memory lest it disappear.

Don’t forget Wolfenstein! That game scared the sticky pudding out of me when I was a kid. Also the first Warcraft.

What's the deal with that price?

Loved that first Warcraft. Used to play it over the modem with a friend, but it was so slow that we'd set our guys to meet in battle and then go do homework and hope we wouldn't miss the fight.

Have you played the reboots.....The New Order and New Colossus? Superb games. Nazi-slaughtering fun.
