Phoenix Edition 5 – Vol. A
Seit der Veröffentlichung der Erstausgabe im Jahr 1994 als weltweit erster ernsthafter Versuch, die Geschichte der Videospiele in Buchform zu dokumentieren, gilt Phoenix als die „Bibel der Videospielgeschichte“.
I bought the hardcover for the shelf, but I keep pulling it down to flip through the early chapters. The binding feels solid enough that it actually lies flat while I read.
I've been hunting for a proper video game history book for ages, and this volume finally delivers the depth I wanted. The archival photos and detailed release timelines make it easy to just flip to a random page and lose an hour.
The hardcover binding feels genuinely sturdy, and the paper quality makes the archival screenshots look sharp rather than muddy. I've been reading a few pages each night and keep finding obscure titles I'd completely forgotten about. Worth the shelf space for anyone who grew up with these games.
