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.

What are your favorite single player games to go back to often?

  • Minecraft
  • Furi
  • Mario 64
  • Super Mario World
  • GTA SA and Vice City

It's kinda rare for me to go back to a single player game and replay it, but there are some games that are nostalgic in the same way place or smell can be nostalgic.

I know them so well that I can't help but want to go back and visit and I never really get disappointment by the experience. Sure, I don't get as immersed as the first time, but I definitely still enjoy the games.

I go back to the Mario games pretty often.

Man, Furi, I tried and couldn't get past the tutorial, lol

There are so many Mario games that are easy to pick up and play anytime without worrying about forgetting about the story, controls, or anything like that

Haha I played Furi a lot so now I have the bosses memorized

Same. The soundtrack is killer, though. It's in my regular rotation on Spotify.

In my first play through I was surprised how many songs from the games I knew
