1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die
0
Some of you know that I work in the book and publishing industry and I thought it might be a good oppportunity to introduce a title which I purchased recently. "Wait a minute... shouldn't this thread be in the Entertainment section?" Fret not, I guarantee the topic would be appropriate for the Video Games section.
Without further ado, I present the title "1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die". It is a whooping 960 pages; although not all of them contain screenshots from the various games, it is definitely informative enough to bring back fond memories. Numerous games hailing from the 1970s till today are introduced. Of course, the book isn't flawless. There are many video games which I thought deserved to be mentioned, but were unfortunately left out. Examples include Quest for Glory, Heroes of Might and Magic II and III, etc.
If you do have some money to spare, why not drop by your local bookstore to see if the above-mentioned title is available? It brought a smile to my face, especially when reminiscing fun times I had with my friends during our younger days.

As long as they mention Kirby superstar and Suikoden, I'm all set on buying it :D
...or I might just buy it because it's cool.
Ditto.

I think I am being underpaid here. Posting all 1001 titles is not going to be easy.
Then again, if I am able to, I could scan the index pages.

HMM I WONDURRR IF OKARINUHHH OF TIEM IS GONNA BE IN DER????
haha I think if I was the person who wrote that book I'd leave out FF7, The Zelda Games, The Mario Games, and Space Invaders just to fuck with everyone. Maybe put in "IMAGINE BABYSITTER!!!" in there instead. Get some rage. It'd be lovely
