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.

For considerably less than the price of the Super Deluxe Edition of Boarderlands 4. I have almost all of Assassins Creed on one box. (infosec.pub)

So a while back, I wanted to play Conkere bad furday. After doing some math I worked out that it was cheaper to get an Xbox One and Rare Replay, than the original game.

But now that I have Conkers, and a new box. I thought to myself. Hey isn’t this backwards compatible with 360. Which it was. But this lead me to another thought. Why deal with Ubisoft BS on PCs and their Client. Where older games force you to sign in to play them. When I could just have them on one box.

Which eventually lead me to acquiring this small collection. Total price is $155.88 CAD (before tax) and I know I overpaid for some of the later games. But it’s all on one system with no Uplay BS in my face.

Ac1 - $3

AC2 - $4

ACB - $8

ACRe - $8

AC3 - $12

ACB - $7

ACRo - $15

ACU - $10 ($7 more than i think should costs)

ACS - $13

ACC - $18 (shocked with this one)

ACOr - $20 (could’ve got it for $10 but got it on impulse)

ACOd - $20

ACV - $30 (again $10 over used)

Are you planning to skip AC1, play 2 and then get a couple hours into 3 before giving up entirely?

I actually really like the first game. Had a unique aesthetic which is missing from the other games.
