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.

The PC version of Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter. This game is super difficult for me but I'm having fun trying. It also tends to jump-scare me more than any horror game has before. Sadly, I can't get GRAW2 to run because of weird Physx problems and Wine/Proton, so I might go re-play Ghost Recon Future Soldier for the Xbox 360 again after this one. I'm too busy to get to that this week, though.

I also scooped up a Fire Emblem Awakening cartridge last week. I might try to finish the last two chapters of Fire Emblem Warriors and then dive into that one. I'd play both at the same time but the contrasting speeds of the two genres might be a bit too much.

My "I have 10 minutes to play" game this week is BlazBlue: Clone Phantasma. I really enjoy the BlazBlue series (especially the 3DS release) and this one is the cutesy/chibi arena fighter version. Very simple and shallow but great for quick games.

Those advanced warfighter games were so cool. Rarely see them mentioned but I fucking loved those squad based shooters.

might as well be a solo game, though. my squad mates are as dumb as a bag of hammers 😆
