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.

Halo is one of my favorite games of all time, and I played the shit out of the first one when it came out. It was absolutely game changing for console shooters. Before that, I hada SNES (skipped N64 era). It absolutely blew my mind.
Unfortunately, I don't think it really held up. If you played it back then, the nostalgia still hits hard and that's fun. But if you play it for the first time now, it just won't hit the same, unfortunately.
Having just played through the MCC recently the first halo is a bit dated, but 2 and 3 are some great campaigns. Reach and odst have decent stories, but the campaign is more average. The biggest surprise to me was how much worse 4 is than I remember. I knew it was disappointing, but playing it back to back with the others really makes it obvious.
I had played all the games before though.
