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.

Anyone else still use their old clickwheel iPod or just me?

Had mine flashmodded and battery upgraded, continue to happily use on walks.

I'll have to look into that!

I had mine going until the battery went spicy pillow about a year and a half ago and I haven't had time to replace it yet.

That reminds me I need to refresh my backups and prepare for the day the HDD gives out.
