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.

Not great at cooling
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
Each pillow cover has 2 sides, one marked for cooling, and the other a different fabric. The cooling side is about the same effectiveness as having a silk or satin pillow cover. It's only cool when you first touch it. The cooling side doesn't seem to absorb or wick moisture, so if you are sweaty - it keeps the moisture in place. You'll definitely want a regular pillow case over the pillow cover. In fact, if you suffer from night sweats, the non-cooling side is actually more comfortable. The pillow fill is ample, and simple to squish around for more support for your neck, etc. Think bean bag. But it will retain your impression after use. I find I need to do as I did when I had down pillows - give it a few good shakes in the morning when I make the bed to get it evened out for the coming night. In all, it is a well-made and comfortable pillow to sleep on, but it does not excel in cooling.

excellent pillows i bought two sets!!
Size: Firm Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
I ordered these for my son who has neck issues and has gone through so many pillows trying to find one that he liked. They’re heavy, so i was worried that they might be “too” heavy to be able to sleep on comfortably, so I ordered a second set, one firmer than the other (just in case) and gave him a set for Xmas and he loved the first set so much without even trying the less firm ones.He also needs the cooling factor and these offered that, too. They are filled with pieces of memory foam (tons of it) and each pillow can be modified by removing some of the foam. The covers are beautiful, high quality fabric with a zipper so ts easy to remove or replace the foam pieces. The size is perfect and they keep their shape. I kept the second set i ordered rather than returning them and i love the pillows. I actually modified two by removing some of the foam pieces. I kept the foam pieces in a zippered pillow protector and i can always adjust mine when or if i need to. 1000% love these.

The Perfect Firm Pillow l
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
It is everything it claims to be, cool, comfortable and strong. I got this for my husband first, he loves it and then got one for my son, he uses it to support his knees and has been sleeping much better since then. They both needed a firm pillow that is not super soft, firm but not achy. Finally found the perfect one.

It works! Quality pillow.
Size: Standard (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
This does actually provide a cooling effect, and it's very comfortable! The accompanying literature is helpful too. I believe this to be a quality pillow for the price.

Most comfortable pillow I’ve ever slept on
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Crescent White(cooling)
This is the most comfortable pillow I have ever slept on. It doesn't mash down like other pillows. Cradles my neck perfectly plus it’s cool. I broke my neck a couple of years ago and this pillow feels very good and comfortable. Definitely recommend to everyone. Ive used it since May and it’s retained its shape.
