The Games That Weren't Review

The Games That Weren’t is a highly comprehensive book with nearly endless sources of fascinating anecdotes and images of games you have either wondered why they never came out, or you never knew existed.

It brings all the nostalgia feels and a sense of discovering something new at the same time. Besides the joy of learning about all the great or not so great games we never experienced, perhaps the most interesting part is to gain an inside view of the always ongoing collaboration or conflict between developers and producers, and how this conflict can have stopped games that sometimes should have been stopped, or vice versa.

Covering 40 years of video game history across a multitude of arcade machines, computers, and consoles. It is a must buy. Get it while it is available. Fantastic review copy sent to The Artifice by Bitmap Books.
