A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

It has been a while since the last one. So...

Tell us what game you are currently, or recently played, greater than 6+ months old.

If the game happens to be on sale, a link would be a plus.

I'm finishing up Saints Row: The Third Remastered. I'm absolutely loving it, and I think I prefer it to GTA V. It's way less serious, but I actually somewhat care about the characters, unlike with GTA V. The side content is a lot of fun, and it has the turf war mechanic I loved about GTA SA.

I highly recommend it if you haven't tried it. It's a bit janky, but there's a lot of fun to be had imo, just don't take it too seriously (the game makes that really hard).

Have you gotten the Shark-O-Matic gun yet? It’s hilarious.

I actually skipped over it on accident, so thanks! And yes, it's absolutely glorious.
