### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Cover was creased, not in "new" condition
  

*by D***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2023*

Good book, but the cover was creased, it was not in "new" condition.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    A well-written historical perspective
  

*by M***O on Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2018*

I'm sure I'm not the only one with a large stack of unread books on the nightstand. So when I get word of new books like this on a topic of great interest, it goes on the wish list for some future time. But then I saw some troll post a negative review here based entirely on the title and not the content, which incensed me into pulling the trigger and getting it read. And I'm glad I did.Most Atari fans have memorized the history of the 2600. What Lendino uniquely does here is to relate those details in the context of the era in which they occurred, with a perspective informed by knowing now how it all turned out. It's part personal memoir, but not so much as to become a vanity project - just enough to evoke memories for those of us who were around in the 1977-1984 time frame and lived this stuff. I'd forgotten quite a bit.In addition to the history, the book includes short but comprehensive reviews of the most significant games released for each year the 2600 was sold. Significant means best and worst, and Lendino chose well, including important third-party releases from Activision, Imagic, and Parker Brothers. Each game features a screenshot (would have loved having those in color, but you can't always get everything you want in publishing), a gameplay synopsis, and just enough technical information without getting bogged down in arcane details best left to other books.It's good stuff, whether you lived it the first time like I did, or if you came in later on and want to appreciate the Atari phenomenon in its original context.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great!
  

*by M***H on Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2021*

I am a retrogamer through and through, and when I saw this book I knew I had to check it out. Excellent overview of the games released for the 2600. I even discovered a few that I had never heard of.
