Description
A few bright pixels, a display, a joystick, a d-pad or even just the touch screen of a smartphone are enough to enter a world where every move can make the difference between level up or game over. How did we go from Pong, so simple but captivating, to reality-altering applications like Pokémon Go, which pushed players around the world to explore their cities in search of tiny creatures? Here is the complete and illustrated history of video games, from its mysterious origins among niches of bizarre scientists, brilliant academics, hippie programmers and business-hunting Japanese entrepreneurs. The entire evolution of the comic book gaming phenomenon: from its birth in the top secret laboratories of the Second World War where Alan Turing, the father of computer science, wrote the first computer game; to the success of cabinet games in the 1980s and the development of innovative home consoles, thanks to industry icons such as Atari and Nintendo; to today, where interactive fun is always at your fingertips. The book also focuses on titles that have entered history, such as Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Super Mario Brothers, Mortal Kombat, Doom, The Legend of Zelda, Sonic the Hedgehog, Final Fantasy VII, Grand Theft Auto, Angry Birds, Minecraft and many others, and about their creators so bold, courageous and brilliant.
