| 06.06.12 | How fifty years of videogames conquered pop culture. Really not much to do with pop culture but 100% video game history. It was really interesting to read this book because it basically catalogs my youth as well. As the chapters went on and the years ticked by I found myself remembering more and more of the story from vague childhood thoughts to seeing the games on the shelves in highschool and college to following their development on the internet to watching E3 broadcast these days, I was more familiar with each chapter I read. So that was cool. I liked this book in that each chapter was about an interesting story in the tome of Videogame History and I feel it was written honestly with sufficient sourcing and references to be authoritative. It's not a complete history by any means but the story Goldberg tells through each chapter work as examples of greater trends. Good book. I'd recomend it to any gamer. |
