Als die britische Computerspielszene zu explodieren begann, tauchte in der Carver Street in Sheffield ein kleines Geschäft auf. Es hieß Just Micro und wurde von Ian Stewart und Kevin Norburn gegründet, die beide aus dem Einzelhandel stammten, aber den Wunsch hatten, in die Spielebranche einzusteigen. Glücklicherweise zog das Geschäft lokale Talente wie Pete Harrap, Shaun Hollingworth und Tony Crowther an, und so wurde 1984 Gremlin Graphics gegründet.

Dieses üppige, 560 Seiten starke Buch zeichnet den Werdegang des Unternehmens nach, von den ersten Erfolgen mit Monty Mole, Jack the Nipper und Thing on A Spring über die bahnbrechenden Rennspiele der Marke Lotus bis hin zum Kauf durch Infogrames im Jahr 1999. A Gremlin In The Works von Mark Hardisty enthält Interviews und Anekdoten von allen wichtigen Gremlin-Mitgliedern, darunter Chris Kerry, Ben Daglish und Greg Holmes, sowie von bekannten Vertretern der britischen Spieleszene: Rod Cousens, Tim Chaney, Jeremy Heath-Smith, Geoff Brown und Infogrames-Gründer Bruno Bonnell, neben vielen anderen. Angereichert mit Spielbildern, Erinnerungsstücken und Archivmaterial wie alten Briefen, Visitenkarten, Mitarbeiterfotos und Spieldesign-Dokumenten ist dies eine erschöpfende und umfassende Chronik eines der beliebtesten britischen Entwickler und eine faszinierende Erkundung des kometenhaften Aufstiegs der Spieleszene in den 80er und 90er Jahren. Diese zweite Ausgabe von A Gremlin In The Works unterscheidet sich von der Originalausgabe von 2015. Als direkte Reaktion auf das Kundenfeedback ist das Buch nun in einer gebundenen Ausgabe zusammengefasst, im Gegensatz zu zwei separaten Büchern, und der Schuber ist nicht enthalten. Der Inhalt hat einige kleinere Aktualisierungen erhalten.

Produkteigenschaften Englisch. 560 Seiten. 250 mm × 210 mm. Hochwertiger lithografischer Druck von Kante zu Kante. Pantone-Farben. Gebundenes Buch. Fadengeheftete Bindung für dauerhafte Qualität und die Möglichkeit, das Buch flach hinzulegen, um die doppelseitigen Bilder ideal zu betrachten. In Schrumpffolie eingeschweißt.

Great purchase
Material Type: Recycled Polyester, Color: Dark Navy, Size: X-Large
Purchased several shirts, all were great quality. You never know what you’ll get when you purchase sight unseen, these are worth it. Great value, style, and comfort. Color is exactly what you see online. True to size.

For work or casual wear, this polo is a great choice.
Material Type: Recycled Polyester, Color: Port Stripe, Size: X-Large
I really like this polo. I've been wearing it once a week or every other week since November. Its very comfortable and breathable. This polo feels like it should last a while. The fit is good. I typcally wear XL and this XL fits great. I've pruchased it in both burgundy and black so far. I definitely recommend this shirt. For work or casual wear, this will look good.

Great value: These are my go-to work from home shirt
Material Type: Recycled Polyester, Color: Blue, Size: X-Large
I’ve been pleasantly surprised by these shirts and wear them weekly for Zoom calls, since I’m still working from home these days. I figured at the price point it was worth trying them out, and now I’ve bought several in different colors. They aren’t super soft, but they are comfy and look nice. I’m 6’1” ~220 pounds, and the XL slim fit still has plenty of room. I imagine the regular cut is incredibly boxy and oversized. The difference between polyester vs recycled polyester is inconsequential. I typically buy expensive golf shirts, and these definitely aren’t as nice. They are a fraction of the cost though and a great “beater” work shirt / hang out shirt. It’s nice wearing something that looks and feels decent, but if something happens to it, you can toss and it and pick up another for the cost of a chipotle burrito.

Great price, not great quality
Material Type: Recycled Polyester, Color: Black, Size: Small
Simple, straight forward all black polo. I am a size medium woman (with some room since I don't like form-fitting) and bought a men's small. Fits perfectly for my frame. Long enough to tuck in for my part-time extra weekend job uniform. Also suitable for the golf course. A little thin, and if you hold it up to light you can sort of see through it. *Not* flowy, soft and smooth fabric like a rash guard/sun shirt - more structured than that. But it's cool and does the job for the price under $10.
