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.

Is there a game that you've been very patient for, which turned out to be dissappointing when you finally started playing it? (lemm.ee)

Personally there are a few games which left me very dissappointed, after hyping myself up for years in certain cases.

Divinity Original Sin: turns out I prefer more streamlined, less packed games (love Pillars of Eternity) and that coop play in a CRPG stresses me out.

Wasteland 2: I actually managed to finish this one but secretly I admit I was hoping for a better Fallout which I didn't really get. New Vegas did the cowboy theme much better.

INSIDE: while the design was cool, it was just a ton of boring, easy puzzles in comparison to LIMBO, its predecessor.

1nsane 2.

So many good memories of dragging my desktop PC, CRT monitor, desktop speakers, and LAN hub over to my friend's house. Pizza, white castle, smoking schwag and playing hours of king of the hill. 1nsane was just the shit to get your friends worked up. Rune was cool, UT was most excellent, but 1nsane was something special.

For so many years we yearned for a next gen copy. Then we got 1nsane 2, and what. the. fuck.
