$10 for 10 DRM-free eBooks
I’ve long been meaning to check outConfessions of the Game Doctor, and now that it’s available digitally in StoryBundle’sThe Video Game Bundle, what am I waiting for? This package, curated by Simon Carless of Gamasutra, the Independent Games Festival, and elsewhere offers pay-what-you-want pricing starting at $3 for seven eBooks.
The core set includes Bill Kunkel’s aforementioned book as well asThe Making of Karateka,Constellation Games,Killing is Harmless,Generation Xbox: How Videogames Invaded Hollywood,Kill Screen Issue 2: Back to School, andKill Screen Issue 6: Change Issue. Paying a minimum of $10 for the set will also get you copies of Ralph Baer’sVideogames: In the BeginningplusThe Making of Prince of Persiaand250 Indie Games You Must Play.
There was a time when I tried to keep games from seeping into my primarily non-fiction reading, but such plans have failed miserably. Oh well. Have you read any of these already? Recommendations?
