I suppose what I’m really after is:
Spirit Island
Techno Bowl
7th Continent
Aeon’s End
Maybe some Arkham Horror LCG stuff, want to try it out.

If I already own all of Arkham Horror what does Eldritch Horror do differently or better? Is it at all justified to have both?
I kind of blew the game off when it came out because I wasn't sure of the differences.

It's reasonable to have both Arkham and Eldritch, because they are different games with a different focus. Arkham puts the narrative focus on the characters, while the focus in Eldritch is on the Great Old One's story. Eldritch is a streamlined version of Arkham, but takes away some of your choices. For example, in Arkham, you know that if you go to the Newspaper, there is a good chance that you will get an encounter where you receive clue tokens or money. In Eldritch Horror, you can go to San Francisco, but your encounter might involve Chinatown or going to a party at a mansion or whatever, and there is no real way to prepare yourself. Part of the fun in Eldritch is losing a character and then sending somebody to investigate that death. One unfortunate aspect of both games is the potential to lose a turn, which is a game mechanic that most modern designers avoid because it isn't fun. From what I have heard, losing a turn is a somewhat more common occurrence in Eldritch.
