Why aren't you shopping AmaCoN? Or perhaps buying a really good looking shirt?

I didn't even notice that, but it looks like it's been since 2005! I thought maybe that Squenix were just publishing, or had the rights to publish non-gaming products for Taito, but they are a wholly-owned subsidiary.

Anyway... I'm looking forward to this book. biggrin.gif
