When you install it, you are playing the game as it was in December 2007, but with the benefit of 15 years of community refinements. The foggy streets of a ruined London, the chattering of a Mark 5 assault rifle, the eerie silence of a haunted tube station – all of it preserved not by a corporation, but by a single anonymous archivist.
