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.

For me it's Chrono Trigger. I always want to play it. I want to show it to my children. I hope it will be regarded as a masterpiece for generations to come.

Half Life 2 still looks and plays fantastic even nearly decades later

Half life 1 also! May be the graphics are a bit dated, but for that is the Black Mesa verdion

I never played the original one because the graphics are such a turn off. I'm considering buying the black mesa fan project though. Graphics are from the Source Engine (HL2 essentially) which are way a lot better, even if slightly outdated today.

I started playing Valve games with HL2, and didn't play HL1 until the Black Mesa game came out. I highly recommend. It's a fantastic game and the story made bolder choices than the new games. It really gives a sense of wonder in parts, especially on the back half of the story.
