In their 50s and up more like
30s and 50s are the same age. If your knee hurts and remember golden era simpsons you’re the same age.
GTA V came out when I was in highschool, and I remember playing it frequently.

Be honest, there was no game that wasn’t going to draw criticism
they could have gone classic/retro and had somebody play tetris while giving a nod to that kid who just looped it.

If Kamala Harris got an any% world record run of Spyro 2 live on twitch, would you speed run to the polls?
Tim Walz filibusters the Senate by performing a live glitchless Shenmue 100% run.
