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 have very fond memories of the first Halo on the OG Xbox. It was very cool to be able to do the campaign together with a friend.

Along with what others have said:

Speedrunners
- Just run and do parkour faster than the other players
Nom Nom Galaxy
- Land on an alien planet and build a soup factory. Collect ingredients and fight against another corporation.
Crawl
- One player is a hero running through a dungeon, the other players control monsters trying to kill them. Whoever kills the hero then becomes the hero. Whoever kills the boss first wins. Great soundtrack and art.
Ultimate Chicken Horse
- Design a shared platforming level with traps, so that you're able to get to the end but the other players can't.
Magicka 1 and 2
- Wizard game, create spells by mixing elements and blow up a bunch of goblins.
Stikbold!
- Dodgeball game, a decent bit of skill involved. Can fight each other or against AI.
Tooth and Tail
- An RTS game that works well on controllers, you control an army of woodland creatures and have to kill / eat the others. Great soundtrack and art. Can play versus or against AI.
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime
- Work together to pilot a spaceship and kill monsters and save people.
All the Lego games
Wizard of Legend
- Wizard roguelike
Boomerang Fu
- Fight each other by throwing boomerangs
Treadnauts
- Fight each other by driving tanks on walls
Unrailed
- Try to keep a train going by building the tracks as it's moving.
the Trine games
- Cooperative adventure / puzzle game.
Guns, Gore & Cannoli
- Arcadey shoot lots of zombies game.
Kingdom Two Crowns
- Build a town to protect against the evils outside
Spelunky
- Roguelike, delve into a cave searching for gold and riches

Me and a friend 100%ed crawl together and it was a really good time. Took us a while to beat all the monsters challenges.
