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.

It's kind of sad that one of the greatest video game series is on hold for now.
Conspiracy theories, multiple ways of solving a mission, game lore hidden in computer inboxes...
Are there any (pre-2010) games that gave you the same feeling or do a similar thing?

There's always the system shock remake that is pretty darn good if you're looking for something nostalgic but updated.

It's also 35% of at GoG right now.

You should play / replay Splinter Cell. Espionage, stealth action, some techy tools. Really would like to see this series or something like it return.

There's also Metal Gear, Shadowrun, and the lesser known Anachronox produced by Tom Hall of Doom.
