If you know that you're going to play, you might as well pay for the 6 month push and save yourself 25 bucks, you know what I mean?
I game on a budget but the accessories that I have picked up include the wireless router and the messaging controller add on.
The router was priceless, the messager is cool but I probably could have done without.

I wish I could give a number, as a game collector I've spent quite a bit! I tend to watch out for good deals though so it's hard to set a number. the collection itself is worth between $6000-$9000 though, depending on the current collector's values. Lots of old school, lots of rare games, a factory sealed super 3d noah's ark...and prototypes.
