“Game Hacking contains more than just interesting material; it contains an education. Budding programmers and game designers will gain critical insights. Perhaps, for someone with the predisposition and the will to develop their skills, this book could even kick-start a new career.”—Josh Townsend, IT Security“Game Hacking makes for both a great read straight through or as a desk reference when reversing games or abusing Windows process memory.
