I spent most of yesterday trying out a number of PS2 games, and none of them felt retro to me.

The hardware feels retro — maybe because it lacks HDMI and doesn't have firmware designed around an online account — but games no longer take advantage of (or even want) the imagination gap, and that's key.

In a way, modern games expect you to immerse into them on their terms, while vintage games expect you to partially immerse into yourself.
