Buy Once Upon Atari: How I made history by killing an industry by Warshaw, Howard Scott online on desertcart.ae at best prices. ✓ Fast and free shipping ✓ free returns ✓ cash on delivery available on eligible purchase. Review: Well entertained. It has a lot of insider's view on what went on in ATARI games in the 80's. Anyone interested in pursuing a game programmer should read this. It also has a section on how he created the worst game ever in E.T. Review: This book is a wonderfully well written and authoritative account of not just a games company but a cultural moment in time and works its way out from the New Mexico landfill by developing the two paralleled timelines of both Howard and Atari after he got there, gently exposing the reader to a lot of cool subtle observations .. like the problems with the industry or as he calls "BIG". You can tell that most of the Dilbert characters have met Howard, its that kind of book. The stories of the people he interacts with are warm, personal and have some real pearls of wisdom in there as well. It speaks to me on so many levels and was a thoroughly worthwhile and riveting read. If you have ever written a line of code.. I implore you to read this book! You will lose a Sunday afternoon but you will gain a contented smile.

What a great first hand account of what life was really like for programmers back in the day! If you lived through the early era of video games you'll love this charming book by Howard.

A fascinating read by a really nice chap (I've exchanged emails with him). Howard explains everything that happened with humour and at times a touch of sadness; clearly he was affected by the ridiculous and incorrect assertion that ET caused the video game crash. The writing style is a little rambling at times, but at least it's clear there is no ghost writer here. Absolutely absorbing book, highly recommended.

Livro maravilhoso, nos leva para o interior de uma das empresas mais queridas do vale do silício. O autor fala com propriedade de quem viveu uma dos períodos mais férteis da história dos videogames.
