Yeah, I know that, but there are a lot of games I can catch up on that I don't feel the need to buy new. Not to mention the number of Ultimate, Complete, Premium, GOTY Editions of games that get released with DLC for cheaper than $48. I got Witcher 3 Complete Edition for $30. Since I tend not to play online competitive games where the online community tends to fall off a while after launch, there's really no need to buy new. Plus, I won't suffer the disappointments like Star Wars: Battlefront and No Man's Sky at a premium price. FFXV and The Last Guardian are two new games I'd like to get, but I can wait and play Witcher 3, Shadow of Mordor, Batman: Arkham Knight, and Bloodborne until the prices drop on them.

I was thinking of getting back into consoles but I just never got around to getting one because my laptop is pretty good and to be honest the games at release just didn't appeal to me. However, I rediscovered my passion for Halo after joining an online community and playing Halo: Online (a cracked version of Halo) and Halo 5: Forge (the free multiplayer version for PC). I don't want to spend a bunch of cash if I'm only going to play that one game and I figure the PS4 has better games. That being said though I really, really like Halo and if I were living in the states I would put more time/resources in it to try to break into the pro scene.

Watched the first episode... Gonna pass on this one. That first episode was confusing and I don't really care to find out who or what she is.
Also watched the first episode of Medici: Masters of Florence and that was also underwhelming. It was more coherent than The OA's first episode, but it was clumsy and on the boring side.

Then I watched Spectral. Not as good, but if you just want something fairly entertaining, and like action, it's probably worth a watch.Spoiler:

ARQ was o.k. They probably made that thing for $10. I liked the ending. It reminded me a lot of "Triangle" with Melissa George, which if you have not seen I highly recommend.

Well damn, those two were on my list. Particularly Medici with the banking dynasty. Thought about starting OA last night. A couple of people in the Media Lounge seem to like it. I also will probably watch 3%.
I did finish Travelers, and I really enjoyed that. A lot of good characters. The leader of the unit is kind of the typical type of guy who plays that role, but all the other characters on the team are good, as well as some of the other characters that end up playing a part in the show. Really looking forward to season 2.
