Does anyone own the aforementioned book by Taschen? Can you give me your opinion on it?

It sounds like fairly good value, but I read in a couple of places people moaning that a lot of the models included are of a lower poly and texture resolution than the ones used to do the "preview renders" seen in the book that accompanies the CD. That's obviously not particularly good form, but since I would be using the models for gamedev rather than rendering, a lower polycount isn't necessarily a bad thing for me... as long as they are any good!

So, before I go out and spend 30 euros on it... should I buy "clean underware" from Amazon.co.uk instead? LOL

I have vague plans for World Domination
