Buddy, Terraria and Binding of Isaac came out in 2011, they are closer to the 90s than they are to the present.

They're retro games.

The binding of isaac: rebirth is from 2014, repentance+, the latest dlc, has been released in 2024

Terraria is still getting free updates to this day, the last "big" update being released less than 2 months ago

You probably meant to type 2024 as the release for Repentance+

So Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is a retro game? Skyrim? Battlefield 3? Gears of War 3?

Pull the other one!

I find it weird even calling ps2 "retro". Still seems pretty modern to me. Theres 2 analog sticks.

Those are 7th gen games, and 7th gen is pretty much where modern gaming began.
