Computer games are now part of our culture as much as cinema and sports and theme parks. But who knows all the important companies, games and makers? Who knows when the first God-game or first person shooter came out and who invented the game console? How are animations created? What did Nintendo sell before the Game Boy? How did Leisure Suit Larry get its name? Why did Jack Tramiel start the Commodore company? Who are the Bitmap Brothers?
This huge encyclopedia of computer games provides the answers through over 1,100 entries: All important developments from more than 40 years of gaming history are comprehensively presented here for the first time - people, companies, technology, genres and of course the games themselves. From "Afterburner" to "Zork", "Activision" to "Zipper Interactive", "Adventure" to "Business Simulation" and "Animation" to "Warez" - you'll find everything you need in this compendium.
