Every time I post a
Second Life story here we get tons of comments reminding us that SL is not a game, which I won't argue with...but it is chock full of gamers. Not a week goes by that I don't run into something awesome and gaming related, whether it be discovering that someone I am talking to is a player in the gaming industry, or simply running into some amazingly cool creations, like these
Final Fantasy X creature avatars my friend Keiko stumbled across in her travels. They are, as you can see, amazingly detailed replicas of FFX summons as well as the most adorable Chocobo you're likely to find. Each avatar comes with special attacks taken straight from the game, and the Ifrit and Bahamut versions both come with two color schemes - normal and Yu Yevon. Created by Second Lifer Damien Fate, the avatars cost 1000 Linden each (around $5) and never fail to impress the hell out of everyone who sees them, FF fans or not. Damien is currently working on the ever-creepy Tonberry, with Ixion on the way after that. You can
find them for sale in SL here, or hit up
Damien's YouTube to get a look at the creatures in action. Damn fine work.
