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.

Physical game purchases can be sold on so there's less worry about dropping full price on a new release. Digital games need to be cheap to justify the permanent purchase though.
