Speaking of games, the current best game of the season in my household is a 9 year old driving game that we got for $5 last year. Had we got it when it came out, we would have spent several times the amount, plus had to wait for all the patches, updates and fixes.

The same goes for movies. Why pay $$$ to go elsewhere to sit and stare at a screen with sometimes rude strangers when you can wait for a few months and enjoy it from the comfort of your home.

Being in this business for a while, I don't jump on the latest and greatest software releases. Usually there's a SP1 or release x.01 that corrects most of the big issue with software.
