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.

I mostly play PS3 games on RPCS3. Very few newer games are my taste.

I'm doing a Metroid Prime trilogy run through using Primehack. The retro is real.
