I have hulu plus and think its well worth the 8 bucks a month. There's also crackle that is free but limited in content.
I've looked into Hulu, and am more than likely going to get Netflix. I'm just looking for a certain show I can really seem to find anywhere. I thought I might be able to watch the older episodes of Shameless(The US version- I can find the UK version everywhere) on the Showtime website, but I couldn't get it to run.

And just an FYI, the free portion of Hulu doesn't even work on the PS3 browser. You have to have Hulu+ to use it on PS3 at all.

I really want to start getting into fighting games but I don't really want to buy any consoles or anything like that either and ya know, that's fighting game territory there. Maybe I'll just emulate some Saturn stuff since I do have a USB model 2 controller. If only I could find a good Saturn emulator for Mac OS.

I have beaten parts 1, 4, 5, and XX, but none of the others.
You're missing out. 2, X, and 3 are all awesome, with 2 being a personal favorite despite the slow down(X is effectively a fixed remake of 2).
Whats the ideal way to play Metal Slug if I do not own a Neo Geo?

What systems do you already have besides a Mac?

I've got a PS4 which has Injustice which I love. I know Guilty Gear Xrd is on it as well.

I've got a PS1 and a Dreamcast packed in their boxes in the closet as well. I'd need some proper controllers for both. I can't stand their respective standard dpads.

There's a new BlazBlue fighter coming out on PS4, though it will need to make it out of Japan.

Do you have a way to play Windows PC games? There are a lot of good fighters on Steam, and a few on GOG. I don't think any work for Mac though.

There is literally nothing wrong with the Dreamcast d-pad.

Ultra Street Fighter IV is coming to the PS4 soon with all DLC on disc (and ported by Sony).

I bought a 4GB Model E Xbox 360 this morning for $70. I can't wait to start collecting games for it. :)

I need to get a hard drive, and it will probably cost me nearly as much as the console. :(
