Yeah I love the term. It’s funny, unique, and you know exactly what they’re talking about.
I always preferred the term "Arena Shooter" but it may have more specific meaning than any game that vaguely has elements popular in fps games of the 90s that I think "Boomer Shooter" is usually trying to communicate.
