I tried a couple of times to make https://www.reddit.com/r/cuttingedgegaming/ happen, but never reached many people. This community seems to mostly folks playing 1-2 year old games, I wonder if there are more of us who are playing older (but not "retro") games, particularly PC games?

Oh yes I know, I emulated GameCube and Wii for years, but I only have a laptop that while quite powerful heats up a lot while emulating, so since I need it for work I prefer to keep it cool and playing on the original systems allows me to do that :D also like this I don't have compatibility problems, especially for x360 and PS3!

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.
