Yeah, it's called being on the low end of the SES ladder. Welcome to the club. We'd get jackets, but we're too busy trying to afford rent.
I considered it a giant step Forward when (being in college then) I managed to afford a 360 only two years after it had come out.
However, I will point out that being behind on the whole console thing is now less of a problem than ever. You remember growing up and going to the video store to rent a game, only to see your console only has a dozen or so games in stock while the new system has an entire wall to itself? Yeah, I remember those days, but now with things like Ebay, amazon and Gamefly it's incredibly easier to get your hands on older titles.
Just another way today's youth is spoiled.
