And no, I'm not talking about me.

I can remember being all excited when a new Ultimate game would come out on the Speccy. The cool black boxes, the cryptic instructions and Tim Stamper's great illos on the front all made for a great experience even before you actually got to the game. Later, as I was doing some box design roughs for Rare's Grabbed by the Ghoulies I suddenly realised just how much Tim loved having that mystery in there. "Why don't you put a tiny skull right in the centre of the eye, there" he'd say. No real reason to but he just wanted someone to really look hard at that pic, find that skull and wonder... "just why was that skull there?".

Now I need to go over all those old Ultimate covers again.
