I did end up buying the PSP. And Crisis Core. Both were $88 after all my gift cards, so in the past two days I've bought $220 worth of video games and only paid $88 for them, so I think that's a damn good deal.

Especially since I finally figured out the insurance thing. I called an agent today and figured out a policy that will completely cover my baggage (which is mostly what I want covered since I've got some expensive gadgets), but only will do the bare minimum of medical and trip cancellation and so on, and all for $90-$100. Score! My mom said she'd be happy with a $100-$150 policy, so I think maybe me finding a cheaper insurance policy that still gives me everything I want will make up for splurging on the PSP.

...Dear god, you know you've grown up when you're talking about buying insurance. How boring is that? Is it mitigated by talking about buying video games as well?

I think you'll enjoy Cris Core, as I do so far. And the PSP is going to have a lot of great games on it. And when you have more money later, Dissidia will be there (hopefully cheaper), and I recommend Final Fantastics Tactics: The War of the Lions, too. (And there's Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep and Final Fantasy Agito XIII coming to it.) I think you made a good purchase and got a great deal.

Good catch with the insurance thing. :D

For a long time I was ambivalent about wanting to play Crisis Core, since, well, anyone who's played FFVII knows how Zack's story is gonna end and I didn't want to break my heart because I just know I'm gonna get attached to him. *sigh* The lure of the game and the story ended up outweighing the pain of inevitable heartbreak, though. XD

I'm...still sorta ambivalent about KH: Birth by Sleep, though, since I heard the battle system is similar to Chain of Memories, and I just couldn't keep playing CoM because the battle system kept making me wtf? and also annoyed.
