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.

Started playing Half Life 1. Never played any of the Half Life games before.

As for a recommendation, Chrono Trigger and the Silent Hill games (1-3, including the remake of 2).

I played Black Mesa (HL1 remake) and loved it. I haven’t played HL2 yet though.

Enjoy HL1, it’s a great game, or at least the remake is. I’m assuming the original is good too.
