I also love game/graphics development, 3D modeling, and low-level programming stuff as well.
At the moment, as I´ve already mentioned, I´m focusing on getting my life organized, and "learn how to learn", better. Having your mind "sane" is essential if you wish to absorb so much information!
Let´s keep this thing interesting!
Cheers,
Marcelo.
I forgot to mention Essential ActionScript 2 and ActionScript Cookbook
