So "boomer" just means anything that's older than the person viewing it now? Boy they've sure killed off any power that word ever had lol

It's shooters in the style that Boomers and Gen X (but no one ever addresses Gen X) played. Like Doom, Wolfenstein, etc. Sure millennials played them too, but they weren't the target age demographic.

Cultic is a good modern boomer shooter if you want to try one.
