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.

Just finished prototype 1 and 2 for the first time since I was a kid. Very fun and definitely recommend both, but you could probably get away with just 2.

I should not have been playing a game that violent as a kid lol

The message, especially in the second one, is actually pretty positive. And the dark humour even in mission objectives is awesome. My favourite example being that you find out some of the scientists you have in a helicopter are trying to do eugenics, so your objective is to fly them as high as possible and jump out to "fuck over the scientists". Lol

I remember wanting to check out the second one when it first came out but never did. I totally forgot about those games actually. Maybe I’ll pick them up sometime
