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 also quite enjoyed Warrior Within but then again I liked Jak 2 as well. I wonder what happened in that "Shadow the Hedgehog" era to make all these good mascots go bad...

I can only guess being dark and broody or "Bad Boys are cool heroes" was the trend at the time

A time where trying to be "edgy" was hitting a desired target market - a time Ubisoft put effort in their games trying to push boundaries.

Now that I think about it was also a time where games had to try new things because the target market hadn't exploded in volume yet as well
