My weekend was spent streaming a little more Epic Yarn and Return to Dreamland, while squeezing in just a little Rondo of Blood.

Rondo is definitely tough. To the game's credit though, there's a lot of secrets to find in it, but they really make you work for them. This was definitely the toughest game in the series.

Also Return to Dreamland gets a lot harder than I remember it. I'm at the second to last world, and damn... The levels get tough, but some of these mini boss fights are downright nasty. Also, one of the later levels is called Nutty Noon. For the life of me, I can't figure out the logic in using that name, but I'll be damned if we all didn't laugh our asses off when I arrived there.

How do you guys describe gaming generations?



In regards to saying something like: the PS2 generation, or the 360 generation?



I've flip flopped over the years between picking the one with the most sales or the one I enjoyed the most.



I tend to remember periods of my life based on gaming generations. Like, oh that was the N64 generation when I was at school etc

I go with whatever system was most prominent to my gaming experience for that gen. The NES, SNES, PS1, PS2, 360, and Xbox One were my most played systems during those gens so I’ll generally just use those when referring to gens.

I think everything Pre-NES as Golden Age, and everything else as generations with whatever consoles that came out during that period (e.g., WiiPS360 generation).

EA and others describing generations as like 8th gen is entirely unhelpful to me.

DF does that as well. I can't remember the generation numbers.

I know how the generation system works, but I can never think of the corresponding ones off the top of my head. I just know that the Atari 2600 and coleco are generation 2. After that I have to start counting Nintendo consoles to figure things out. And even that kind of breaks down a little bit once you hit the Wii u.

Yeah I always need to double check on the generation numbers as well so typically refrain from using them.

Here's an easy to remember console generation formula:

PS[console number]+4=Gen

PS1+4= 5th gen.

PS5+4=9th Gen.
