A gaming sub 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.

Basic idea is to have the community all play the same game and then talk about it and our experiences.

I feel the games should be either very inexpensive or free. Even a demo or "Prologue" would be an easy way to make it free. In regards to selecting games we could use community engagement and vote in some fashion, or have a pool of games which everybody contributes to and one is selected at random.

This is just a random idea I had but wanted to throw it out there.

Thanks for listening!

Maybe whoever runs it could be convinced to post the game here each month too?

Would be fun to know all of us patient gamers are playing the same thing whether we prefer forum thread or group chat format for discussing it.
