Guerilla Games' Killzone: Shadow Fall is currently 8 years old. With all the recent discussion about whether or not The Last of Us is a retro game, I thought I'd bring up a game that released a mere 5 months after TLOU for similar consideration. If TLOU can be considered a retro game, could this game also be appraised as retro considering it released under half a year later?

The major difference here is that TLOU was the PS3 swan song while KZ:SF is a launch title for the PS4. Someone who's old enough to vote, marry, and be sent to war was in elementary school at the time this game was released.

If this keeps up I'm going to have to petition for the term retro to be retired.
