[QUOTE="Edan-Grossman, post: 91955, member: 1989"] Well, after spending a few days with it, I think I am going to return it. While I did enjoy Zen and TPA on the system, it just doesn't do quite as much as I though it would. The internet browser is usable, but the lack of portrait view is a bigger problem than I thought it would be. The games that are exclusive to the Vita look and play better than any other handheld device that I have seen, but the Vita simply needs more of them. The high cost of the proprietary memory was also a factor. I have a lot of free Vita games that I got from my PS plus membership however the cost of the memory outdoes the benefits of having these "free" games. I may as well just buy the individual game cartridges. When buying a Vita with a ps plus subscription, you really need to add $100 to the cost of entry to buy a 16gb or 32gb card. I'm not trying to knock the Vita down, it just wasn't exactly what I thought it would be. This could all turn around when the PS4 is released and if the vita or the memory gets a price drop or a really generous system bundle. I think I will wait for this holiday season to see what sony has cooking for it. For less money, I could get a nice tablet, more specifically the new nexus 7. [/QUOTE]
