Games That You Played Long After Release Day

The original pacman? What did you use? DOSbox? (assuming it was released on DOS)

I have no idea if Pac-Man was ever released on DOS, but I was talking about the arcade version of Pac-Man. 

Also, I was wrong about playing it first in 2006. It was Ms. Pac-Man that I played that year, not regular Pac-Man. I'm not sure when I first played Pac-Man, but I think it was probably after 2006.

Basically, almost every game.

I hate hype and in my eyes, if something is hyped up, it's in 99% of cases not worth it until -70% or below sale. The only exception to this was Star Wolves: Civil War. I watched the development very closely, chatted with devs (all of whom were even bigger fans of the original game), and that was before early access and Kickstarter were even a thing.

Life is Strange (first game) and Civ 5.

I also want to say Fallout 4. I played it on release with my ex, but never owned my own copy until last year? maybe a little earlier. And I have been playing that game non stop recently. I picked it up again after my brother started playing it.

Watchdogs: Legion is a game I played awhile after launch and I still play it.

Pretty much every game I own I bought long after their release, there aren't too many that I can say that I got on release day.

Most recently would be Chrono Trigger, never actually played it until this year. I loved SNES RPGs as a kid but never had that one.

Mario Kart Wii was played a lot before I finally sold it
