any popular arcade game

call of duty 4 & halo 3

SPBP

Ecks bocks.
Tree siddy.

Shit, meant to reply to It was the 360 ports of cod and halo that totally made that shit super mainstream.
I recall heaps of mates that otherwise only dabbled in a little street fighter or whatever, just gushing about how rad cod was.
Always on console.

CS, CoD, Pubg and rocket league

dudebro is the most annoying word to come out of someones ass

Halo

Halo

WoW casualized the mmorpg genre and made it successful by having so many normies play it

Ps2

pong

FIFA and Madden NFL

The fuck did RL do

WoW

Video games were always a normie hobby

Kys hipster

Doom

Probably wow, had so many guildmates over the years who were parents, tons of normalfag teenagers.

VRchat had daily dose, it that normie? youtube.com/watch?v=4oRyBe8RCnM

Your favorite childhood game

Xbox 360 was when it finalized and developers started realizing they could make more money with shitty cookiecutter garbage marketed to normie brainlets.

Probably Halo 1
Any gen (6) console? So GameCube, Xbox, PS2.
Mainly the popular titles like GTAIII, Melee, etc

Any Playstation/2 game.

I really doubt that Ignition is that popular

CS isn't a dudebro game, CoD and BF are

FIFA and Halo

>there are people that believe this

>there are people who believe this isn't true
dudebros only play on consoles, and on them they play shit like fifa and cod

FIFA, PES, GTA San Andreas...
PS2 games in general.

There was a time when PC players considered all FPS to be casual normie games, because adventure games at the time were hardcore as fuck.

casual normie isn't the same as dudebro

CS is strictly for 15 year olds to learn how to make hacks

>Normie
fuck off to

Dudebro is a fairly recent term, so yes, you would be right in the sense that on the time of the creation of the word Call of Duty was the only game that it was attached to. But that's being pedantic.

Sup Forums posters are nothing if not pedantic.

>facebook frog
>'normies'
You're the normalfag here, OP.

>video games is a top secret hobby for elite unique people such as myself

MYST

It's not a game but a console.

The Wii. It opened the gates, a new horizon for people that was unaware of it before.

Pong.

youre thinking of the xbox or the ps1 or maybe even the nes. there were better alternatives

I'd pick PS2
Sony marketing was always aimed at normies that wanted to feel like special-snowflakes

Tf2 (the uber update)

This. First graphics over substance game.
Just kidding.

Tetris

>no mention of guitar hero

This and Wii sports, for sure. Everyone had them in college.

Without a doubt, Halo on the Xbox.

I remember the first time I smoked weed and went back to a dudebro's house.

I was so fucking confused while watching him play a shooter with his thumbs. Even while stoned, I could tell everything was happening much slower than it should.

I realized at that moment, there will always be an endless amount of money to be made from slower people.

Fifa. First game came out in 93 and everyone in Europe has been slurping EAs dick since.

Anyone blaming Halo or CoD is an asshurt arena FPS baby.

The correct answer is Grand Theft Auto 3. Parents were complaining about it. News outlets were complaining about it. It was the game to have because it was built on this hype of "you can go anywhere and do anything like murder and robbery" After it came out the top games being sold every year were GTA and Madden.

Eternal reminder being a normalfag > being someone like OP

t.well-adjustedbuttblastednormiedudebro

the correct answer is microsoft releasing the xbox and halo

Mario Bros 2/3 and before that, arcade games. Sorry fag, videogames were normie machines right out the gate.

The very first GTA was banned in several countries. GTAIII was definitely not the first game to cause controversy.

Thread isn't about controversy, it's about what led to the big flood of normie dudebros and GTA3 is it

Pac-Man

Yes but they implied that the controversy of GTAIII led to the popularity and normie influx.

Tennis for Two
October 18, 1958

cod4. By far THE most popular game of all time up to that point. Shit all over wow's popularity, then WoW siphoned people in from it, leading to issues that game now suffers from. The larger userbase convinced people to split off and make new versions of games that had more casualized and newbie-friendly mechanics. Directly lead to league's creation in the late 07 early 08 timeframe.

The playstation 2.

Pong. They set up the first arcade in a bar and people swarmed to hit, overfilling it with quarters.

The controversy around it made it normie bait though. GTA3 was a 3D open world crime sandbox.

Pong.

halo came out on xbox a year before pc faggot.

Fuck

>dudebro

back to tumblr

i seriously hope this thread is ironic
desu most normie dudebros are on reddit pretending to support women's rights anyway

Counter Strike, Dota, GTA SA

[popular multiplayer game i don't like]

>complaining about normies, while posting the dead meme reddit frog in the year of our lord 2018

>cs
lol not everything is quake you assmad old man. cs is now the premier pc shooter, suck a dick. twitch shooters fell out of popularity because they were all the same. "normies" didnt take people from your community, because twitch shooters are way too in depth for normie pickup. what ruined your communities was YOURSELVES giving up on your game. at least melee players and cs players dont do that.

Super Mario Bros, Street Fighter 2, Mortal Kombat. They were "revolutionary" in the sense of doing something right even though they weren't the first one of their genres. SMB brought a platformer with tight controls, memorable soundtrack, secrets and amazing replayability, SF2 created the standards for a working fighting game and MK brought (mostly bad) media and discussions about violence in games, all of them attracted attention of normalfags who probably don't know what a hitbox is to this day. Still love those 3 games though

t. mad CSGO brazilian kid

>games released before you were born
Maybe you're the dudebro then

Doom was considered dudebro at one point and was even mentioned on Friends.
MK always played like ass, my dude. I dunno how you can enjoy.

Doesn't the fact that there are so many different answers to this question imply that "dudebros" have always there?

Not him but he's not entirely wrong. Arenafags either complain anything trying to appeal to them is either too Quake/UT or not Quake/UT enough.
Get a load of this nerd.

Use those critical thinking skills bud, analyze a trend. Video games have been mainstream since the 80s.

Meant for

t. someone who only started playing with CSGO

CS was never a dudebro game until GO, you fucking underage retard.

>hurdur vidya wuz only for us nerds amirite

Kill yourselves you manchildren, it’s onbvious none of you grew up with arcade culture and the craze of Doom.

This.

Both normies and dudebros have always played video games, just not to the extent of most of us here. The only reason it seems they play them more now is because consoles became cheaper and more accessible.

Need for speed ps1

It was either Madden 98 or Halo

Halo didn’t start the casual FPS craze half life did they only held the crown till cod took it from them

This

weird . CS was what every retard of my school played
i played UT and quake so i was the weird kid

This!

Fucking this right after CoD4 came out suddenly all the jocks were talking about was CoD and it was suddenly totally acceptable to play video games instead of being this weird nerd hobby.

Tony hawk
