Downright Bizarre Games:
Video Games that crossed the line
By
Michael
Thomasson
Downright
Bizarre Games pokes fun at the
video game industry,
an entertainment business that often takes itself much too
seriously.
This is a hilarious look at the odd side of the industry,
from games
outside of the norm to bad art and outlandish dialogue.
Also featured are unfortunate headlines,
marketing fiascos and publicity stunts gone awry.
All these eccentric and strange events are documented within
this
book which gaming professionals wish had never seen print.
224 Pages,
FULL COLOR! Only $39.99 for the softcover or $49.99 for
the hardcover.
PERSONALIZED & AUTOGRAPHED by Author for
FREE upon request

Baer, The "Father of the Home Video Game",
visited GDG, and had this to say:
"I
looked at your website in some detail... very well done!
Keep up the good work.
Don't forget to get some sleep every once in awhile."
