Apparently I recently overlooked my 100th PS2 game purchase/acquisition, most likely due to the fact that I was missing a few in my collection list here. That 100th game was Growlanser: Heritage of War. And a good one it is. I'd debated on whether or not to pick it up since it was missing the artbook and other bonus items. In the end I caved, because Atlus games are rare enough already. Maybe I can find someone pawning off or giving away the artbook later, but I'm definitely happy to have the game. And yay for having 100+ PS2 games! **throws confetti** Now I just need to find time to play/finish them all. XD

Speaking of Atlus, the Shin Megami Tensei Imagine MMO just went into open beta. Of course I had to download that as soon as I got the email about it. It's another free MMO from Aeria Games. I might actually stick with this one because it's similar to SMT Nocturne in that you can pursuade, bribe, or threaten demons to join your party and then fuse them into another (hopefully stronger) demon. You'll most likely start out with 3 that are standard due to quests then work up from there. I like my Cerberus, but since he's 4 levels behind me I'll probably fuse him with one of the others contracted to me. I really want a Bicorn or Unicorn, but if it's close to Nocturne, that won't be until around 20ish. The last Aeria game I quit was Dream of Mirror Online because I was sick and tired of looking at my characters arse hanging out of her armor. >.> Good job failing at life. I shouldn't have that problem with SMT, though I know I won't be adding an Incubus to my party.

On an art related note, I recently rendered a scene from Sarovanya's story (it needs a name badly XD) with the skin I'd been working on. And holy crap. I haven't finished the massive burns on his back yet, but already the cross-shaped wound looks really nasty. x.x I have a little post-work to finish before I share it though.

I also purchased Poser 6, but I won't be rendering anything with that until I read the entire bloody manual, as it's nowhere near as user friendly as DAZ Studio. Poser's actually really nice for morphing faces and bodies though. But I haven't been able to import my D|S characters for tweaking... and there's no way I'm starting from scratch on Saro since I'm too happy with him already (a little body tweaking would be nice though).
