        I wonder how much this joke ages us?

        Like what is the oldest age the average person wouldn’t get this joke without the context of the comment you replied to.

          Idk that depends, probably. I’m in my thirties, never played half life, and therefore don’t get the joke, even with context lol

          Unsure if retro stuff in the games world will get back in fashion like with music. If there’s any one game that will be replayed it will be HL2.

          But that might be a niche experience, the common shared experience is a decade long age group considering mainly of millennials or through the orange box maybe a couple of Zoomers/gen xers’

            They made it free a few weeks ago on steam. I’m sure more than a couple zoomers (who are the generation after millennials) and Gen X’ers(the generation before/intermingled with millennials) played it. Although my experience with it is the orange box, there is a great many others who did not have an Xbox 360 who also fell in love.
