32 Bit Library is a retro gaming book series for nostalgic gamers. Each volume is a curated retrospective of games from the original PlayStation library. Every game covered has a written entry discussing key details and information — not just a generic review — and details about what made each title unique. Multiple screenshots from each game highlight key moments and refresh readers on these classic titles. Plus, bonus entries from industry professionals add extra content to each volume.
32 Bit Library: Volume 2 focuses on Namco, a premier publisher for the original PlayStation. Looking through 32+ different games over the course of 250 pages, you can chronologically see the evolution of Namco's amazing output on that famous gray box.
Bonus essays are provided by Jason Dvorak from Game-Rave.com, John Linneman from Digital Foundry & DF Retro, Kurt Kalata from HG101, and Audi Sorlie from Limited Run Games & Digital Foundry.
