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.

I was amazed at how good a reflection it is on the nature of investigative police work, and what makes a detective a detective.
It’s not the gun or the badge (you start off without either), it’s not the innate authority (you start off in a humiliating predicament) it’s not being able to call upon the might of the state (your fellow police officers barely bother picking up the phone).
No, what makes a detective - maybe even the best detective on the force - is the willingness to do the work. To observe. To inspect. To interrogate. To pound the pavement day after crappy day. To completely give oneself up to the task of figuring out what the hell happened, and follow the clues wherever they lead.
It’s probably the best cop game ever made.
