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.

Could be a console startup, title screen, intro cutscene, etc. I just got wired off an energy drink so I apologize in advance if this post is unhinged.

I personally associate it with Kirby Super Star's intro, the Sega CD boot screen (non-US, I associate the US ones with Christmas), and the original Xbox startup.

God, yes. Keeping your fingers crossed the whole time.

That was me and Jak 3 on PS2. It was a copy a friend had let me keep because I kept playing it all the time at their house. It was scratched a bit so every often it just wouldn't start.
