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.

Just finished Doom 2016 the other day. What an absolute fucking blast. I have not had that much pure stupid unadulterated fun in a video game in a long time. If Doom Eternal didn't exist, I would not hesitate to replay Doom 2016 on a harder difficulty just to keep jamming to the soundtrack if nothing else. RIP & TEAR

I agree! That game is just pure fun!

I'm not sure why I didn't feel quite the same about Eternal.

I still haven't figured out what it is about Eternal that didn't grab me as much as 2016.

Eternal's difficulty comes from how many guys it throws at you. Sometimes I just felt like I just made it through a tough battle only for a second or third wave of enemies to show up. It's like Doom turned up to 11, but 10 was already plenty for me.

7 is enough for me lol. I enjoyed it, but I couldn’t do it anymore after about 5 hours
