Context: "Boomer Shooter" is an pet name for old school-style, arcade FPSes being made today by indie developers like the New Blood Interactive, 3D Realms (Slipgate Ironworks, wearing the old Duke 3D developer's name as a skin), Croteam, etc. The term was a popularised by Youtubers like Gggmanlives, Civvie 11, etc. (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1328350/Turbo_Overkill/) Turbo Overkill was announced the other day, damn it looks good!

(PC owners of original Bright Memory get Infinite for free. I have no idea when this offer expires, but I'd imagine as long as you get OG game before Infinite releases then you'll be good.)
Due 2021 some time.
Sequel to (

At oh eight hundred hours, station time, the Romulan Empire formally declared war against the Dominion. They have already struck fifteen bases along the Cardassian border. So, this is a huge victory for the good guys. This may even be the turning point of the entire war. There's even a 'Welcome to the Fight' party tonight in the wardroom. So I lied, I cheated, I bribed men to cover the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But most damning thing of all, I think I can live with it. And if I had to do it all over again, I would. Garak was right about one thing. A guilty conscience is a small price to pay for the safety of the Alpha Quadrant, so I will learn to live with it. Because I can live with it. I can live with it. Computer, erase that entire personal log.

Shooters for people who were born between 1946 and 1964?

Yeah peak Boomers were already in their 40s when Doom came out.
So much for Gen X. :p

Whoa, I didnt know GZDoom could get so snazzy!

Boomer = old. These shooter are made to be old.
Also boomer shooter is more catchy than GenXer shooter.
It's the same shit when boomers whine about millennials, they're actually whining about GenZ.

For the children today, anyone born in the last century is a boomer, because what do words even mean, apparently.
