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.

The fact these games hold up as well as they do is a testament to their quality. There's plenty of even newer titles which can't boast about similar results.

Also, I'm a bit "specific" (well... weird) in terms of what does or doesn't gel with me and I often tend to prefer less popular or worse options. Going back to hugely successful titles can be a rather unique experience for me - every game is a surprise in that way, I guess.
