This Half-Life mod reimagines the game as a boomer shooter—yes, even boomier than the original (www.pcgamer.com)

Duke Nukem makes sense. Half-Life does not. Half-Life stars a nerdy scientist who just wants to live, and the game is carried by its story.

No video game newer than Pong makes any sense with the word Boomer in front.

Because the younger boomers who were in their 30s to 40s between the 90s and early 00s weren't allowed to play video games? It's not the game that's born in the boomer generation, it's the audience it's popular with.
