  • I recently purchased the first two installments for 70% off and am looking forward to playing the third. Will probably end up playing all 3 simultaneously.

  • Thanks guys, I’m thinking it might be the TV as I already have a high-speed HDMI. Seems like a massive oversight on Samsung’s part. Gonna try to troubleshoot some more but either way it’s pretty bothersome as I have no way of enjoying movies in true…
