More of a focus on the devices than the games themselves This is a great coffee table book for gamers. We remember when even the earliest of these gaming devices came out and can now prove to our kids that what were are telling them is true. I had Channel F growing up and even it is documented in this book where it is hard to find proof of its existence anywhere else. One thing that I would have liked to see more of in this book is a bit of a catalogue of more of the early games. We remember certain games but can't remember what they were called,
Coffee table book for gamers This is an extensively illustrated history of video games with quality photos of hardware, ads, and box labels, and with good, if brief, descriptions of video game history. It is a book that a computer gamer can display on his coffee table: cloth-bound and nicely printed on glossy pages. There is typically a half-page or so of text along with a photo or two for each topic. It is mostly about the games, but it touches on players and their devotion to gaming, about economics and the development
Gamers Unite There are so many game consoles that I know and have seen and others I haven't heard about. This book has everything you need to know about video games, then and now. Very good indeed.
A book for beginners and general historians This is a book for someone who wants a general or beginner's look at the history of video games. It takes a general look at each era/game console while singling out a few examples of games that personified the era (some examples I disagree with).There are plenty of photos to give the beginner enough of a look to understand each period/console.
A pretty fun exploration into the gaming scene This book was a blast to read! I really appreciated many of the background stores and insight that helped craft the industry as it is. The author clearly took great heart when researching these topics. I'd definitely recommend this title for anyone looking to gain a deeper understanding of the gaming industry as a whole or for hobbyists just yearning for new perspectives. No complaints whatsoever.
