Yup. Exactly the same strategy for me. By the time I've finished with my backlog the new GTA should be down to £15 or less - my typical price range. I'm playing Oblivion as an Imperial Archer.

I've just started playing Oblivion, I also have Skyrim, and so it could be quite a while before I get the new GTA, as much as I like the series. Three very, very big, time-consuming games.

I've read that it was originally planned as DLC and then expanded or padded out a bit to full campaign game length.

Mock rock. Whispering Bob's description of The New York Dolls.

George Roussos, now better known as an inker, did the art on a few stories at EC. Didn't like them much.

I like Feldstein's stiff-figure interior art in the science-fiction books because it makes the characters look rigid with extreme fear, and a lot of these stories are about alien paranoia of one form or another. While very flawed, his art could look quite appropriate for the subject matter.

That was quite educational - thanks, Nick. (thumbs u Possibly something you have first-hand knowledge of because of the Mildenhall collection?

Certainly a bad miswrap, but I was expecting something really terrible as I scrolled down. At least it's fairly even.

I just couldn't be bothered with thinking up a clever alias. One day, maybe , I will change to my first rather than middle name. If I can work up the enthusiasm.

It's pretty awesome, isn't it? I was all the way through. I actually wasn't expecting too much with this one but Rockstar may have just done it again. The graphics look much better than GTA 4, but the trailer did seem a little padded out and maybe enhanced to me, with possible cut scenes lacking in-play HUDs rather than purely gameplay. I'm a big fan of the series, so I'm looking forward to the new one. (thumbs u

It's very warm and sunny here. Manchester has lost its grimness, temporarily.

Yes, it's a fun thread. I was being ironic.

More like The Colonel from Monty Python.

Give it a go. I agree, this thread is an affront to everything. I sense affrontment. There's too much Brit humour and general messing about and no speculator talk! It's gone on long enough!

Finding a high grade raw issue of this comic is not an easy thing. I have many raw issues of this comic. (thumbs u

The Groot story is also in the Monster Masterworks trade paperback from 1989.

I'm always cautious about buying a new console until I've seen reports about its reliability. I still have many PS3 games to do, so no need to retire it yet.

I enjoyed the first three Splinter Cell titles. Great stealth games.

A couple of items that I always enjoy looking at, Jimmers. The default image for my collection's cover gallery archive... My favourite art commission...

No. I'm a big fan of Cockrum's Legion run and his Timber Wolf redesign. Decent in-joke for a lot of us, at the very least.
