What They're Saying
Critics Review
The ‘A La Recherche du Temps Perdu’ of the gaming community. The ‘A La Recherche du Temps Pew-Pew-Pew’, as it were. - Dara O Briain
Steve McNeil’s brilliant book reminded me just how much of my life I’ve wasted. - Mr Biffo, DigitiserHugely funny, and full of fantastic facts about the history of video games. But enough about me; Steve’s book is also quite good.

What I’m saying is, he knows a LOT about games… - Scroobius PipAbout The Author
