Which game have you been the most patient for (as in, delaying purchase)?

For me, it would have to be GTA V. I stopped playing games for years, then built a new rig in 2018. Since then I've played through GTA IV (well, I beat the story, and it was amazing), but I never played GTA V.

My plan is to purchase it and start playing it the day GTA VI is released, as I have enough other games to get through in the meantime.

I'm gonna play Super Mario Sunshine one of these days, I swear.

I played it on Dolphin emulator with a 60fps patch and some HD textures. It aged really well.

EDIT: Also a widescreen patch!

Is it better than Galaxy 1 and 2? I 100%ed these two and i feel like sunshine would give me less of the same, am I wrong?

Funny you should ask, I am actually playing Galaxy for the first time right now!

All I can say is that I really enjoyed Sunshine and will probably finish 100%ing it one day. With the patches I mentioned it feels about as modern as Galaxy (I suppose they are only five years apart). But better or worse? I can't yet say. I love the "Fludd" mechanic and find it really satisfying in 60fps.

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.
