It is the end of a very expensive month, I really took advantage of the spookiest month of the year, spending silly amounts on skins for Fortnite and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, as well as attending my first ever scare maze. I had the third annual Halloween viewing party with my family, this year was Halloween III: Season of the Witch, and I would say it was another success. On the video game side of things, the remake of Dead Space got added to Game Pass. While it feels very familiar, it is still a great game to play, it wasn't broken and so it wasn't really fixed.
