[QUOTE="spoonman, post: 91301, member: 382"] I'd recommend the Vita for gaming, but not so much for web browsing or media playing. It's not that it doesn't handle them well, but more so because of the OLED and screen burn-in issues. I may be a bit paranoid about it, but burned in images and dead pixels on screens drive me crazy. Google Vita OLED burn-in and you can check out some examples. I mostly use my Kindle Fire HD for web browsing....using it now! :) and Netflix, YouTube, etc. Anyway, if you've been a Plus user for a while I hope you've been grabbing as of the great freebie Vita stuff. I think it's worth it to buy a Vita just to play all of those... Here's what I've kept track of while on Plus. [COLOR="#0000FF"]Free from PSN Plus (in the order they were obtained): Uncharted Golden Abyss (2.9GB) Gravity Rush (1.4GB) WipEout 2048 (1.6GB) Jet Set Radio (1.1GB) Tales of Space Mutant Blobs (130MB) (paid) Final Fantasy Tactics TWOTL (200MB) Retro City Rampage (29MB) Chronovolt (261MB) Jetpack Joyride (29MB) Wake-Up Club (104MB) app w trophies Fooseball 2012 (134MB) + Add-on DLC Ninja Gaiden Sigma (2.1GB) Mega Man Maverick Hunter X (412MB) <PSP/Vita> Plants Vs.

You'll probably want a 32GB memory card ($90) as well. TPA is a bit of a mixed bag for the Vita. Some tables look and play great, while others need work. I do most of my pinball gaming on my PS3, but it's nice to have them all on the Vita too. I'm still hoping Farsight might consider adding Cross-Controller support to the Vita/PS3 so we could play it like their Wii U version,with the DMD on the Vita and the rest on the large display. Sony claims to have big plans for the Vita when the PS4 comes out too. Most PS4 games should remote play on the Vita so if you plan on buying the PS4 there's that too... [/QUOTE]
