Yes, you should definitely drop large amounts of money to get a new Vita and then drop some more for a PS+ membership because Gravity Rush is still free on there, unless I'm mistaken, along with some other great games. And don't forget the money for the money card! While I know it sounds like I'm kidding, it's actually a pretty good idea. Think about it 

I've never played any of the Killzone games, so I'm not sure which ones stars a midget. The PSP game is pretty different from the rest of the series but quite good, or so I'm told. And yeah, my wife is pretty dang awesome 

I'm really surprised that BioShock Infinite is hitting PS+ already. I've already played it but I'll be securing my digital copy lol. I'm most excited about DmC since, like most new games from 2013, I haven't played it yet.

What's your opinion of Ghosts? I've heard mixed things about it.

I know, I know. I am ashamed...but at least I'm in good company lol

Both very good games...which I already have 

Hmm, guess I should put in the effort then. First I'll need a copy and then it'll have to get in the back of my long line of RPGs waiting to be played lol

I've never played Xenogears and I have such mixed feelings about whether I want to. I've heard so many good and bad things about it lol. Of course, I still want to own a copy 

Yeah, I can see that as way to look at "peppy." "Inspiring" is a much better word. Glad I can pick 'em even if I can't describe 'em lol. Happy New Year!

Awesome! Can't beat free stuff 

I've never dug into free MMOs but I have some experience with paid vs. free-to-play games in the iOS space, and I imagine MMOs are kind of like that but on a monumentally larger scale. I suppose I just like too many different things to put my entire gaming budget, basically, into a single game for a year, or whatever. But if you plan on it and know what you're getting and when to stop, then I say more power to you. Like I said, I really enjoyed Guild Wars 2 and would love to get back into it sometime. To me, it was worth the $60 initial investment but I couldn't stomach paying another $10 or $15 each month. It just becomes such an expensive game so very quickly. I do hope FFXIV is successful in the monetary path Square Enix has chosen. Sounds like (this time) they have put in the effort to make the game worth it...if you're into that sort of thing lol. So, more power to you!

Thanks! Merry Christmas to you too, Alex! I certainly was not expecting to get one, but the Vita is pretty sweet
