1001 viDEo gaMes yoU musT pLay beForE yoU diE...


Remember seeing any of those '1001's books in bookstores? Recently... I think the makers of this book franchise decide to invade the gaming area... as I saw a book sitting comfortable on the shelves of a BORDES at Queensbay Mall. It was called '1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die'. Sound familiar? Yup... I normally see '1001 Movies You Must Watch Before You Die', '1001 Places You Must Visit Before You Die'... I bet there's more... just that I don't really pay attention to those books.
For a mere RM79.90... it was a steal! Since I can get tax rebates from buying books and magazine... why not grab this? Moreover... of all the '1001's book title... this is by far that... realistically can be achieve. Well... think about it... with the introduction of Sony's XPERIA PLAY and iPhone 4 all over the world... who are safe from playing games anymore? There's even a there is a game tournament for 'Angry Birds' and the category is the widest I have ever heard... from 9 years old kid to a 91 year old grandpa or grandma.

Additionally... this book is not all about games. This book shows the evolution of the gaming scene from the simple 'PONG' in the 1970's to the awesome graphics of 'Call of Duty : Modern Warfare 2'. Besides, it also gives you the insight on why the game is 'the one' that you should play... also they do not miss out the evolution of consoles.

Still think games can't unite people? Think again... those who are in denial that games are mindless, anti-social, blah blah blah... you would be more suitable living in the prehistoric era. No offense intended... but that is what the current generation is embracing now.  

Peace Out ~~
