THE IDOLM@STER G4U Volume 2 - 9

What is G4U?
G4U or Gravure For You, is an IDOLM@STER stand-alone game that allows you to take a picture of your favorite 765PRO idols. You can use commands to have your idol do some cute and cool poses. The fun fact is that the photos you've taken can be saved on the PS3 hard drive and you can do whatever you want on the photo you have taken. In Volume One, the girls are wearing swim suits...wait, I already said that ever since the Playstation3 version of THE IDOLM@STER 2 came out in late October 2011. So, how about the other G4U volumes we've missed? Of course because Volume 1 (the one with Haruka Amami in the front cover) was bundled on the limited edition of THE IDOLM@STER 2 PS3 version, we kindly not to tackled it but for those remaining eight volumes, should we talk about what's what in each?
