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.

PC gamers spend 92% of their time on older games, oh and there are apparently 908 million of us now (www.pcgamer.com)

I'm playing Bloodborne for the first time (emulator). Before that I was playing Far Cry 1 for the first time as well. Far cry was much harder, so far at least.

What emulator are you using? Only one I've seen was PCSX4 and according to a lot of stuff I saw online, it's a pretty outright scam

ShadPS4 has become usable for bloodborne within the last year or so. Runs 60fps on decent hardware

I was never able to get it to work. Always get stuck on a black screen while loading. I keep trying with new shad builds once a month or so.

Thats too bad, I got it working on Linux with 0.5.0 iirc

I at least own it on PlayStation, so I'm not one of the unfortunate people who can't play at all.

Still, that 60fps sure looks nice.

Yea ShadPS4 is great. PCSX4 is a scam not sure why thats even a thing.

Any chance you could also recommend a place to find a totally legit copy of bloodborne? Couldn't find anything on the yo ho ho subreddit
