Fuck Yeah, Video Games: The Life and Extra Lives of a Professional Nerd

As Daniel Hardcastle careers towards thirty, he looks back on what has really made him happy in life: the friends, the romances…the video games. Told through encounters with the most remarkable – and the most mind-boggling – games of the last thirty-odd years, Fuck Yeah, Video Games is also a love letter to the greatest hobby in the world. From God of War to Tomb Raider, Pokmon to The Sims , Daniel relives each game with countless in-jokes, obscure references and his signature wit, as well as intricate, original illustrations by Rebecca Maughan. Alongside this march of merriment are chapters dedicated to the hardware behind the games: a veritable history of Sony, Nintendo, Sega and Atari consoles. — ISBN13: 9781783527878
