    You need a program called comic book reader: http://comical.sourceforge.net/

    and at the bottom of each page for an issue there is a link to download the comic and you can open it with the above program

    Sorry, It's a brigade of one, me...
    There was a schism last month and some rougher types set up the far more common "Dr Pepper and runners team", losers!

    Dr Pepper is just awful :( dunno who gave that sad excuse for a cola soft drink his PhD..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    Ever give an American some Irish Dr Pepper?

    Blows their mind... their Dr Pepper doesn't have sugar in it for some strange legal reason.

    Probably has cheese in it instead.

    Cheery coke needs to die in a fire

    I love Cherry Coke... and I love that one shop next to the city morgue that sells it!

    JC's in Swords stocks Cherry Coke and the Zero variant too.
    I prefer Tesco Cherry Cola though, is inspired and only 99c for 2 litres!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,920 ✭✭✭Steve X2


    It's old news but I only came across the price for this NeoGeo X handheld.
    £500 sterling!!, fook off Blaze is all I can say to that.

    Think I took a fancy to that one evening as well...

    There's a Cherry Dr Pepper as well. It doesn't taste wildly different from regular Dr Pepper.

    I loves me some Dr Pepper, got hooked on it in the states as a teen and it took years for it to become popular enough over here to be stocked in Spars and what not.
    Those in-between years were dark times indeed.

    For €500 I could buy a copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga, get the the discs coated in ABS, then get the ABS electroplated with solid gold, hang it from a chain and pay a rapper who looks like DJ Professor K to big me up.

    Those 68000 based consoles have really shot up in price. Think they must have based the price on megadrive and amiga prices on adverts.ie

    hahaha! thats gotta be a joke... right?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,328 ✭✭✭Pyongyang


    If its £500 RRP then it might as well be £500 RIP.

    I reckon SNK/Blaze have employed that lad on adverts.ie selling his Blaze Mega Drive handheld for €65 as their new head of marketing.

    £500 is just absolute suicide. If it hits the shelves with that price tag, I'll eat my own shoes.

    On the flip side, it does mean it'll sell so few units that it'll be a super duper collectors item in the next few years.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 11,304 Mod ✭✭✭✭Andrew76


    Not even sure I'd pay 100 quid for that thing. 5 times as much? Lol gtfo.

    Hopefully Cidey can resist the lure of that seductive SD slot. :pac:

    More than five times the price, as it's sterling! :eek:

    So it's really in fact €625!

    Even more laughable.
