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.

I got one I'm betting we won't find on here yet...

Alone in the Dark 5, an incredibly ambitious game that fell short, but had some great ideas.

One of which was how that incredible soundtrack by Oliver Deriviere drove this particular playable sequence, 59th Street .

The whole soundtrack done in conjunction with "The Mystery of Bulgarian Voices" is absolutely stunning for an action-horror title.

It was the best part of the game and an incredible example of meshing soundtrack with cinematic gameplay.

. . . actually? All the stuff he does is freaking awesome, so see/listen to his other titles like:

  • Remember Me (Awesomely underrated!)
  • Obscure

Other (lesser known / thought of?) good soundtracks off the top of my head:

  • There Came an Echo (by Big Giant Circles. So good they used the theme in Stranger Things! Season..2?)
  • Anything by Supergiant lol.
  • Oni (bungie / rockstar)
  • FTL
  • Metro 2033, Metro: Last Light, Metro: Exodus
  • Deus Ex: Human Revolution
  • X-COM: Enemy Unknown and X-COM 2.
  • King's Quest VIII: Mask of Eternity

I'll probably add to this if I think of any more. :)
