A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Would you recommend game or show first for a new consumer of it?
Apparently some people don't like that you asked that question.
I honestly couldn't say. Usually I'd be able to give you a definite answer one way or another (and maybe my answer would be different if I'd played the game first) but I don't think there's a huge difference. Maybe just go with whatever you get a hold of first? That said, you can never go wrong with experiencing the source material first; at least not when the adaptation is of a similar quality. You'll have a good experience either way. It really just depends on whether you want to watch the show and say "oh that's how they did that in the show" or play the game second and say "Oh, that's what it was originally like!"
Yeah, I think I must have said something to upset someone. I have had a few innocuous posts and comments down voted in the last day. Weird.
Or people take offense to me asking that question... (shrug)
