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.

If you‘re eyeing NFS Unbound for that sweet 90+% discount, get Forza Horizon, The Crew 2/Motorfest or even NFS Heat instead. The effects - which most people take offense with - are probably the only thing about this game that isn’t generic and the only thing I have a positive opinion about. The car handling, the map, the story, the soundtrack, the performance, the cops - the fucking cops… Long rant short: Get a different acarde racer and don‘t waste your time with NFS Unbound. There’s a reason they’re already throwing it away for five bucks.
NFS Heat is the same shit but better, and The Crew or Forza Horizon are way better than that still.
I’m a huge Forza fan so I agree with this, but it is annoying that most Forza games aren’t available anymore on steam (I think due to licensing agreements not getting renewed for music, but I could be wrong). Horizon 2 and Motorsport 6 are my personal favourites and I only have them on Xbox, but I don’t have my Xbox One at home, I left it at my parents’ when I moved out, so I can’t play them. I guess I could go and grab it but I’d rather keep it there, my parents use it as a blu-ray player and I don’t really have the space for it currently.
Totally derailed what you were saying, my bad. Point is, Forza is great
I think it‘s car licenses, I heard Ferrari for example is obscenely expensive to license, the licenses run out and it‘s not worth to renew them since the games don‘t make much money anymore.
Yeah that makes sense. It’s too bad, if they were all still available and went on a mass bundle deal I’m sure a lot of people would play some of the older ones
