Game On!
Game On!: Video Game History from Pong and Pac-Man to Mario, Minecraft, and More | Dustin Hansen
26 posts | 4 read | 6 to read
Find out about the fast and furious growth and evolution of video games (including how they are quickly taking over the world!) by looking at some of the most popular, innovative, and influential games ever, from Pong, the very first arcade game ever, to modern hits like Uncharted. Learn about the creators and inspiration (Mario was named after Nintendos landlord after he barged into a staff meeting demanding rent), discover historical trivia and Easter eggs (The developers of Halo 2 drank over 24,000 gallons of soda while making the game), and explore the innovations that make each game special (The ghosts in Pac-Man are the first example of AI in a video game). Whether you consider yourself a hard-core gamer or are just curious to see what everyone is talking about, Game On! is the book for you!

Fun and light. This history of video games covers the big leaps and standout games, but lacks detail. There are many other more in depth books on the subject, but if you‘re just casually interested or just want a breezy read, than this one is just fine.

74/150 Whether you're a hard core gamer, a casual on-the-phone gamer, or even a non-gamer (never met anyone who doesn't play a game of some sort), this lively, informative history of the video game (up to 2016) is a fun read. The author is obviously knowledgeable on the topic, and presents it in a energetic and playful manner. 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Hello #TeamSlaughter! This is a spin off of a game we played last year. In the comments below, tag a book who‘s title STARTS with the same letter of the alphabet that is the same as the LAST letter of the previous book tagged. The only other rule is that the book falls within your teams genres. Mysteries, thrillers, true crime, suspense, cozies, no any book related to Halloween. I will start us off with our #teamread.

EACH TAG IS WORTH 10pts.

I‘m thinking I‘ll need to go put this in a spreadsheet or something so I can alphabetize them. As I come back to it it‘s getting difficult to remember if I‘ve listed a word previously and time consuming to go back and check.
294 words and counting.

Clwojick I can relate! I worked on it last night, and i got to about 300 words, and then i started repeating. 4y

Hey #TeamSlaughter! Here‘s the game for week 3 of #scarathlon2020. I figured I would post it nice and early since I plan on sleeping half the day away😉 Since there is a large number of words available, you can either write the words in the comments below, or post a picture of them written out. I‘ll be going the old pen and paper way myself.🤪I‘ll be choosing a random number, and the __ person to post will get a bonus 100 points. GOOD LUCK! 🎃

Clwojick As with the previous weeks, this game will be valid to play until next Saturday at 11:59pm. Week fours game will go up on Sunday. 🎉 4y

Family conversation around the dinner table when our kids were little: "How did you kill the troll?" My mother sat wide-eyed at the rest of us. We explained it was a computer game called ZORK.
Son grew up and his son played Minecraft, a "pure LEGO/sandbox play without all the cleanup."
This book is a perfect gift under our tree. Tells about Pong, Tetris, Super Mario, The Sims, and many other favorites.
What was your favorite game?

TommieMarie74 My brother and I were video game fiends...him even more than me. Heck, he‘s 36 and still plays video games and an almost nightly basis. Plus his son practically lives on his Xbox and computer. I loved the “girly” games like frogger and qbert. But I think all three of us would love this book. Family book club? 7y
Betty @TommieMarie74 Qbert is a Favorite of mine. Your brother and nephew sound like my family! 7y

This was a fascinating book that was fun to read, gave me an idea for a library program, and also gave me an idea for a reward system for my faucet when she starts doing chores.

CrowCAH Yay for brainstorming books! 8y
