Pozostając w kategoriach książkowych – A Guide to Japanese Role Playing Games od @bitmapbooks.com.
Pierwsza ich publikacja u mnie na półce i pod względem wydania robi wrażenie. Z wartością merytoryczną mam związaną pewna anegdotę, ale uważam, że nie powinienem przez jej pryzmat oceniać całości 😉

Our next update is a special recovery of Tork for GameBoy Advance, approximately 60-70% complete (with no sound) and lots of levels. An impressive conversion, with Nebulus style and other 3D levels throughout - sadly never to see completion. Enjoy!

Like this? For a completely personal journey through the gaming ages, grab Julian’s book from @bitmapbooks.com. It’s a seriously good read and tells a real story of a life that’s not a simple compendium of game anecdotes. www.bitmapbooks.com/collections/...
