  • 5 Star Review  Truely a good book to go through, reliving all the memories of the beautiful arts.
    The packaging was awesome for the Kickstarters (special box with extra's).

    Only wish is that the had book started earlier in time. 10 years or so. There was already excellent art being produced, also with art-packs (ascii/ansi). That could have avoided also to a wider spread in art groups and therefor less feeling of 'more of the same'.

    3 Star Review  The book is excellent but there is a large stain on the inside cover.

  • 5 Star Review  I received my books after a rather longer than expected shipping delay but as soon as I unpacked my order of all 4 available books - all worries were gone:
    - Pristine Quality
    - Beautifully done and more-than-awesome layout
    - Packaged professionally, not a single dent in any of the books

    I'm in awe at the pure beauty of these books and it's wonderful content. For the asked price, this is beyond anyone's expectations!
    Don't think too long, put them in the basket and buy them - you won't regret!

    5 Star Review  Une incroyable série de livres dont j'ai bien cru qu'elle ne verrait jamais le jour mais son auteur/éditeur s'est accroché et voilà le résultat, et quel résultat ! Deux magnifiques pavés, complets, détaillés et intéressants à lire (dans la langue de Shakespeare uniquement, pour le moment ?). Merci aux Éditions 64k et Amiga rulez ! ^^

    5 Star Review  Really enjoyable history of Psgynosis, with great interviews from developers, graphic and muscial artists. Detailing the various development companies and relations between them along with the games published themselves. All with high quality pictures and a nice touch of QR codes to follow external video links for various interviews.
