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.

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.

Had a devil of a time finding a good cartoony cart racer for PC. Giving Team Sonic Racing a try this weekend. The great thing about having a young kid who's just getting into gaming, it really leans me into patience. We get to revisit a TON of old games, and they're CHEAP.

That should be fun!

When then kids are ready (mine had some learning curve with the added flying) be sure to also eventually grab Sonic Racing All Stars: Transformed. It's fantastic.

Oh good call! That's cheap too!

I'll preface this by saying that I haven't played it in probably at least two decades, but I used to love Wacky Wheels. I believe it's on Steam now, too.
