I'd have to agree that Aftermath is the best DLC so far. I didn't play much of Back to Karkand (the maps were good I just never played it a lot). I enjoyed Close Quarters (and honestly that just might be because its a quick way to level up), and I was disappointed with Armored Kill (I had fun with it, but on console I wanted way more tanks going). Aftermath maps are interesting, and we don't have too many urban maps in the base game to begin with. It just seems crazy. Seeing the new skins on all the soldiers looking torn up from the earthquake but still fighting each other over rubble just seems sureal to me. Its all these virtual guys know.

I just turned the 3G back on my Vita. Although I just converted my AT&T; family plan to a data share plan. So it was just $10 a month to give my Vita access to the family's 6 GB.

I just pop in and say based on what we have seen on the PS3 version of Plus, only one (maybe two) game will be rotated out every month in favor of a new one. So I don't think it'll be a bad decision by Sony. Especially since im sure they have a backlog of games they can put out for free that don't sell anymore.

I can't wait. Gotta clear space on my tiny 8 GB card. Planning on getting a 32 GB card at work soon. Although I do feel sorry for those who have a 4 GB card.

Maybe someday, but it might be a while. Rockstar (a division of 2K Games) has moved all their games to PSN, but I don't know how 2K itself is embracing it.

The end game will never be as awesome as the original games PS1 game over cutscene. Look it up.

The PC version gave a more detailed, comic book themed, out line of the end of humanity (mutant apocalypse wasteland) but the PS1 cutscene just was more impactful (at the time).

I got excited when I saw I could develop the SHIV. The tactic I always used in old school Xcom was bringing along a rocket tank on all my missions. I didn't always have a good rating on terror missions (blowing up the civilians behind the wall the alien was next too was kinda frowned upon) it provided a lot of fire power and could just be purchased if one died.

I'm feeling every death in this game. Not as much as in the original Xcom, but I've lost too many operatives. While I lost my SHIV on its first mission (as well as one of my sergeants and a corporal) that SHIV could have been a captain I benched. I get attached to my men. Even the low ranking ones because I'm grooming them for the top.

So those who know me (I'm not a prolific poster, but some people have to know who I am) know I love the Vita. I stand behind it, and its perfect for my lifestyle choice. Sadly my economic situation hasn't been the greatest and I was forced to take my Vita to the pawnshop for a loan. I was hoping to pick it up this week but I don't know if thats gonna happen or not.

I had no point about this blog post. Its just more of letting people know that I've been without my Vita for over a month and I really wish I could be playing it right now.

@FluxWaveZ: I made multiple attempts back during the summer for a statement like that and never found anything. At least I know for next year. Although it doesn't matter too much since unless I'm fired from my job, I now make $5000 more a year with my new job, and my wife just got a really good job and both of us now make a combined $50k a year. Still, we have a son, and he is not cheap.
