Phoenix Edition 5 - Vol. A
Sinds de publicatie van de Eerste Editie in 1994 als 's werelds eerste serieuze poging om de geschiedenis van videogames in boekvorm vast te leggen, wordt Phoenix beschouwd als de 'Bijbel van de Videogamegeschiedenis'.
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.
