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.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 (from 2010)

It's still very much playable in multiplayer! If you happen to have a copy - via "Project Rome" you litterally just have to drop one file from them into the game folder and boom - you got a working server browser again! I forgot how incredible the sound design in this game is.

Aw man I forgot about the sound design. I am tempted to try this.

People are still playing? That's tempting, I still haven't found something that hits the spot this game did.

Yeah I was surprised as well. There is not an overwhelming amount of players, but the last few days there were consistently 2-4 servers with close to 32 people online.

Is this on pc? I can't imagine servers are up on xbox right?

Ah yeah afaik Project Rome is PC only. Probably not so easy to make this possible on xbox / consoles
