Daniel Thomas MacInnes
Writer and artist Daniel Thomas MacInnes has written about video games for over 20 years, living through the medium's defining eras. Now with Zen Arcade: Classic Video Game Reviews, he brings readers on a journey of history and discovery through the golden age of arcade thrills and console wars.
Zen Arcade collects 140 essays of games from the 1980s and 1990s, originally released on six systems and now available on today's digital platforms. MacInnes weaves through this rich history with joy and keen insight, never afraid to sing praises or heap scorn where necessary. Many lost gems are discovered, many sacred cows skewered, and many surprises made along the way.
Illuminating, sharply satirical and wickedly funny, Zen Arcade is a treasure trove for diehard and casual players of all ages, and a celebration of the medium's vitality and magic. It is a defining text for the genre, a new standard in video game criticism and journalism.
