Synopsis
In a scant fifteen years, video and computer games have grown into a $6-billion-a-year global industry, sucking up ever-increasing amounts of leisure time and disposable income. In arcades, living rooms, student dorms, and (admit it) offices from Ohio to Osaka, video games have become a fixture in people's lives, marking a tectonic shift in the entertainment landscape. Now, as Hollywood and Silicon Valley rush to sell us online interactive multimedia everything, J. C. Herz brings us the first popular history and critique of the video-game phenomenon. From the Cold War computer programmers who invented the first games (when they should have been working) to the studios where the networked 3-D theme parks of the future are created, Herz brings to life the secret history of Space Invaders, Pac Man, Super Mario, Myst, Doom, and other celebrated games. She explains why different kinds of games have taken hold (and what they say about the people who play them) and what we can expect from a generation that has logged millions of hours vanquishing digital demons. Written with 64-bit energy and filled with Herz's sharp-edged insights and asides, Joystick Nation is a fascinating pop culture odyssey that's must-reading for media junkies, pop historians, and anyone who pines for their old Atari.

The item arrived quickly, was securely packaged, and matched the description perfectly. Seller was responsive, helpful, and clearly cares about providing great service. One of the best eBay sellers I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with. 10 out of 10—highly recommended! Would absolutely buy from again without hesitation. Thanks so much!
- d***b (83)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoGreat price! This is the second time I’ve ordered with this seller and am relatively happy with my purchases. However, the shipping and packaging isn’t great. It takes 2-3 weeks to get your item and they may not come packaged well. I’m grateful my items arrived safely otherwise the review wouldn’t be positive.
