that was the one where there was a mode where you had to basically do vehicular terrorism, causing as much damage as possible in a single accident right?

yeah and our generation actually has cool shit to share. any time someone from a previous generation before us tried to share something that was “cool and old” it ended up just being racist

I looked forward to weekend at my Dad’s because his roommate had an Atari 800.

So you can all shut the fuck up and kindly step off my lawn.

local Hexbear confounded by process of time moving forward, people referring to games that came out several years before they were born as “retro”

A 19 year old today would have been 8 when the 360 was replaced by the XBone, and may have kept playing on one for a few years beyond that. It wasn’t quite that long ago when that generation was still current. Perhaps these particular kids / child labourers are so young they think the “retro” cutoff line is the start of the pandemic.

If they’re teenagers then Tony Hawk Underground is literally older than them, as it came out in 2003

True, and I just checked Burnout 3, the other game OP mentioned, it’s from 2004. These are both Playstation 2 era games. These games aren’t just older than any teenager, they’re also older than the Xbox 360 the teenagers supposedly found. Who knows whatever it was they actually found, or are actually playing.
