Gregory DG Posted March 3, 2002 Share Posted March 3, 2002 $50 bucks, but wow! What a great compilation of video games from the earliest days to 1984! There were so many beautiful pictures of games, Atari and otherwise in it! A couple of the cool things I saw was that they used an article by Keita Iida on the 5200 (and probably more stuff too) and there was a picture of the VCSp in the back! Wow! If I had $50 and no wife, I'd have this book in my hands right now. (sigh) Everyone should take a look at it. Here's the Amazon Link: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/026...1401602-5947965 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRetroGamer Posted March 4, 2002 Share Posted March 4, 2002 I think I paid like $35 when it first came out thru Amazon. Sometimes you can order online and use a discount coupon. Good Book! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VectorGamer Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 Great photographs and contributing writers in a book that chronicles the history of gaming up to the Golden Age. A must read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 looks like the book has gotten a bit cheaper in the 7 years since this thread was posted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Holy crap - a zombie thread come back to life after 7.5 years... I've seen some threads started up again after long gaps but this one must be a record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory DG Posted October 31, 2009 Author Share Posted October 31, 2009 Jeez, my son wasn't even born when I posted that! Now he's six years old and in first grade! If I bought the book today, I have no idea where I'd put it. My house has become the gigantic pile that cleaners forgot... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
