Vintage Games Book Bonus Chapter 5 - Rogue: Have @ You, You Deadly Z's
Tue, 05/05/2009 - 8:59am — Bill Loguidice
Gamasutra has just published the fifth in a series of nine bonus chapters not found in our book, Vintage Games: An Insider Look at the History of Grand Theft Auto, Super Mario, and the Most Influential Games of All Time, on Rogue, entitled, Rogue: Have @ You, You Deadly Z's. If you enjoy this and the other bonus chapters (don't forget the bonus images!), you'll be sure to love the full color book as well. Let us know what you think!

Pretty cool there's a Kindle edition, though you miss out on the color images. I wonder if the Kindle software on the iPhone shows it in color?
The Sony Reader store does not have an e-Book version...

Sadly, all those links in your post Matt are the usual RSS feed aggregators and not real postings. Still, links can't hurt.

As expected, people are passionate about Rogue. It's just a damned shame that it looks like there's no reference or mention of the book, but I suppose it will be good for Gamasutra.
