VIDEO GAME STORIES - VOL. 2
Andrea Porta (Writer), Lorenzo Colangeli (Illustrator)
The second volume of Video Game Stories features seven new stories about video game development, once again focusing on landmark titles that were hugely influential in the market, left their mark on video game history and their respective genres, and remain deeply etched in the memories of fans.
The result of meticulous research by Andrea Porta, this book expands upon and explores the content of the podcast of the same name. It includes updates on all the stories, two expanded accounts with new insights, and an entirely new chapter.
A video game is much more than the sum of its parts, because behind every component is a group of people with a story of their own, often far more complex and intricate than one might imagine. Storie di Videogame recounts all the ideas, experiments, groundbreaking discoveries, sleepless nights, mistakes, major and minor personal and financial tragedies, sacrifices, and cut content that brought massive projects to life, destined to inspire tens of millions of people.
From Silent Hill to The Witcher, and featuring remarkable figures such as John Carmack, John Romero, and Roberta Williams, Video Game Stories offers a unique glimpse into the video game industry. The result is a distinctive blend of storytelling, reconstructed dialogue, and different perspectives that transport readers back in time, right into the offices and hallways of legendary companies such as CD Projekt, FromSoftware, Bungie, Bethesda, and many others.
