Absolutely loving the episode so far. ~30 minutes in.

Have been wanting to try out VA-11 Hall-A for a while if that Steam Code is still available! 😉

This past week @manabookseditions.bsky.social released:

𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐨𝐮𝐫 à 𝐒𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐇𝐢𝐥𝐥 🔪

While I liked the English edition’s “𝘗𝘺𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘥 𝘏𝘦𝘢𝘥 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘳𝘪𝘴” cover, I would definitely give this French edition the front-facing treatment on the bookshelves.

1800. KONAMI ALL PRODUCTS 1998
(コナミ年鑑’98)

👉 www.thevideogamelibrary.org/book/konami-...

1998 was a big year for #Konami. They hit a home run with #MetalGearSolid and revolutionized the rhythm genre with #DDR. So to celebrate, it only made sense to start releasing these annual catalogue yearbooks.

(Age of Empires Strategien & Lösungen)

👉 www.thevideogamelibrary.org/book/age-of-...

By 1998, #AgeOfEmpires was getting a ton of literary love, mainly in the form of guidebooks. This included quite a few German publications, like this one from #SYBEX.

Ya. Chairs didn't really come into fashion until the early 2000's according to this book

I remember asking my dad to go rent me Kid Niki and he came back with Dino Riki.

I still enjoyed it 🤷‍♂️
February 7, 2026 at 2:27 PM
Very excited to tune into this episode! Haven't thought about #MisterMosquito in YEARS!

The game hasn't garnered much literary love over the years.

We've got: 2 Japanese guidebooks, a Taiwan-published dual-guide, and The Minds Behind PS2 Games which interviews the game's producer, Luke Valentine.

1797. TUROK - ADVENTURE #3: ARENA OF DOOM

👉 www.thevideogamelibrary.org/book/turok-a...

In 1998, a series of #Turok junior novels released.

In this 3rd entry, Turok seeks a way home, stages a daring rescue, and fights again in the arena against the most depraved Campaigner yet!
