I'd really disagree that gaming is an expensive Hobby. I can pay $5 for a bundle of games on the computer that can easily get me 50+ Hours of entertainment. Loads of gems are out there that cost under 10 or twenty dollars.
I think I have maybe spent around $500 dollars on m steam collection in its life, and have over 500 games, many of which have a huge amount of content. Easily a solid return on investment per dollar. That's the equivalent of 50 movie tickets.
Well, it's more like I don't have a very good computer and won't likely be able to get more than a laptop in the future (since I need portability more than power), so, to me, it's not worth it to save up for a good rig or console. Like I said, though, I've just not been interested in them lately anyway, so any monetary investment in them doesn't sit well with me.
