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.

Assuming the equipment was also saved so you could still play the games, and every game in existence you don’t mention gets permanently destroyed, and no new games are ever to be made.

Inspired by a video by OutsideXbox from a few years ago, I thought it would be a fun idea to see what this community would choose. You can choose to be selfish and pick games you personally want to always play, or try to figure out what games would be best chosen for humanity to save for whatever reason. I’d also love to hear why you chose your games. Do they have a special meaning to you? I want to hear your stories.

Half-Life 2

Halo CE (MCC version I guess)

F.E.A.R. + Extraction Point DLC (Perseus Mandate and F.E.A.R 2/3 were dogshit)

Metro 2033 (Redux I guess since that's the only way I can get good HDR)

SOMA

I think collections are cheating and that this list doesn't cheat hard enough

Nintendo has to have released a classic Mario collection right?

What do you mean collections? Are you talking about the MCC? I was saying that I would save JUST Halo CE but that likely it would have to be the MCC version.
