   I got a launch copy for the artbook, but still have yet to actually play   
   the game.  Too much to do and not enough time, you know?  I may post my   
   impressions if I ever DO get around to playing it...

   might be a bit longer before it gets played...

   do some proper ogling with the art book ;-)
