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.

Which game have you been the most patient for (as in, delaying purchase)?

For me, it would have to be GTA V. I stopped playing games for years, then built a new rig in 2018. Since then I've played through GTA IV (well, I beat the story, and it was amazing), but I never played GTA V.

My plan is to purchase it and start playing it the day GTA VI is released, as I have enough other games to get through in the meantime.

Well, when I get gta 6 that will probably take the cake. I dont have a ps5 yet, and money is tight ish, so no rush for me. I know the game has diminishing returns for an old head like me, but fuck I love that franchise. I literally started with overhead view, pixelated, pc version (one or two?) , playing 1v1 (occasionally 2vcomp) with a high school buddy with cracked version on dial up.

Too date tho.... iv gotten some great steam deals, but thats cause i put everything on the want list and grab a sale when that game suits my mood. Specifically waiting tho, thats harder. Maybe wii era mario, i waited for the wii to be cheaper, but paid almost full price for mario galaxy.
