    The early 2000s had this fad where Generic Posh Female British Accent used :awooga: gimmicks to pander to Epic G*mers and was all over SciFi/SyFy channel blurbs.

        Yes. And back then, games journalism was ethical. That's why Rise of the Robots was hyped everywhere in previews and declared to be the game of the century before it was released and sold. Surely it is a legendary game that you have heard of and played, yes? :so-true:

        And the ads back then didn't have political agendas either. :so-true:

            There were 3d games as far back as the early 80s.

            Ocarina of Time came out in the 90s, as did Mario 64. There have been 3d games since the snes, although those ones were not very good looking.
