Friend of mine has this, sounds way better than my fender (and I paid over $700 for mines). Beautiful resonance. Very good guitar especially for $200!
You should check out Rocksmith.
Not at all, definitely go for it.Plenty of good examples out there.
Depending on your goals and how quickly you want to achieve them you'll need an investment of minimum 1 hour a day, day in day out. If you just want to play simple chords - the progress will be fast. If you want to (eventually) play something difficult you should get a teacher, who, in the beginning, makes sure your hands position and posture is correct. You don't have to take the lessons too often if you record them and look at yourself in the mirror while practicing. After that you can move on with self-study resources completely or hire somebody to teach you on-line for cheap ($10-15/hour).
Having said this, it is totally possible to learn by using on-line resources and enjoy the process and the results (just set your expectations accordingly.).

The Ibanez is a nylon guitar. I believe the FG800 uses steel strings. Totally different guitars. I'd get the guitar for the type of music you want to play.
Don't know much about guitars but how the electric part come to play to with this one?
The guitar has a pickup that allows you to use a guitar cable and plug it into an acoustic guitar amplifier / usb interface (for recording) / PA system.
On a regular non-electric nylon guitar, you would have to use a microphone.
Is it too late to start learning it by oneself at 30+?
Rocksmith is a fun way to get you interested in playing and learning, but there are so many resources on YouTube, that you can learn if you commit the time to it
This is a classical guitar, I've always preferred their sound
this is not a classical guitar: it is too narrow at the nut. It also has some other non-classical features (which are not as important, considering the price and intended audience ).

I've been playing guitar for over 20 years and I absolutely love this amp https://peavey.com/vypyr-x1-guita...p/03617730
There is an acoustic mode on this amp, but you can even plug a bass guitar into it and it sounds beautiful in my opinion.
Edit: I just realized it'd be hard to get before Christmas. Sorry about that. Still, for future reference, this amp is great.
