It's 2006. I am taking 276 yeti furs from the goodies hoard.
I'm on and off reading a book called Gamelife which is a dude's memoir interspersed with the video games he played growing up and he goes pretty deep into like old Ultima games and The Bards Tale and poo poo

It's not game-related but I started reading Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer. It's good

What literature can surpass Chris Metzen's wonderful and deep lore of Azeroth?

Reminder that Ready Player One (soon to be a major motion picture!) is the Imp Zone Book Club "Pimp's Choice" book of the month. And remember, you can get it on amazon with 20% off using our code, PIMPZONE. That's PIMPZONE. Enjoy, gamers, and 'level up' your reading scores!

The last game related book I read was Game Design Companion: A Critical Analysis of Wario Land 4. I thought that it was a very interesting read and I notice a lot of little game design quirks when I play games now.

Also Ive been reading a newly published history of animation thats been in the works for a few years and includes a massive section in the 70s and beyond that situates video game development into a history of film because its all just animation. Which is cool to see.

I sent the author an email though because she mistakenly used an image of Super Mario Bros. 1 from the All-Stars version and credited it to 1985. Hopefully it will be corrected in the next revision.

I had a psychology textbook a while back that used a picture of a kid playing cs 1.6 for a paragraph on the psychological effect of video games
