Starflight (Paperback)
Seller: Grand Eagle Retail, Fairfield, OH, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. No one saw it coming. At its launch in 1981, IBM's original Personal Computer was an expensive business machine-not a gaming behemoth of the kind you saw from Apple, Atari, Commodore, and Tandy. But by 1990, the PC had trampled all its competitors and become the gaming juggernaut it remains to this day. How did this happen? What did the PC do that the ostensibly superior Commodore Amiga, Atari ST, and Apple IIGS, couldn't?In Starflight: How the PC and DOS Exploded Computer Gaming 1987-1994, author Jamie Lendino tells the full story, starting with the PC's humble CGA and monochrome origins, moving through early ill-fated (if influential) failures such as the PCjr and Tandy 1000, and diving deep into the industry-shattering innovations in processing, graphics, sound, software, and distribution that gave the PC (and the gamers who loved it) unprecedented power and reach.Along the way, Lendino explores more than 110 of the PC's most entertaining and important games, revealing how they paved the way for PC supremacy while also offering players new levels of challenge and fun. From groundbreaking graphic adventures (King's Quest, The Secret of Monkey Island), innovative role-playing games (Ultima, Might and Magic), and sprawling space combat epics (Wing Commander, X-Wing) to titanic strategy titles (Civilization, X-Com), first-person shooters (Stellar 7, Doom), wide-ranging simulations (Stunts, Falcon 3.0), and hard-driving arcade action games (Arkanoid, Raptor), you'll discover every detail of how the PC's games catapulted it into the computer gaming stratosphere.Whether you were there at the time-experiencing first-hand the transition of EGA to VGA and single-voice beeps and boops to sweepingly symphonic Roland MT-32 sound, and discovering historic titles upon their release-or you're only now discovering the wonders of the era, Starflight: How the PC and DOS Exploded Computer Gaming 1987-1994 is a fresh, dynamic, and impossible-to-put-it-down look at the years when PC gaming-and computer gaming itself-changed forever.
