32 Bit Library is a retro gaming book series for nostalgic gamers. Each volume is a curated retrospective of games from the original PlayStation library. Every game inside has a written entry discussing key details and information, not a generic review, and details on what made each title unique. Screenshots from each game highlight moments and refresh readers on these classic titles. Bonus entries from industry professionals add extra content to each volume. The goal is to have an archive of the PlayStation catalog organized chronologically and focused on a specific publisher or genre with each volume.
32 Bit Library Vol 2 focuses on Namco, a premier publisher for the original PlayStation. Looking through 32+ different games over the course of 252 pages, you can chronologically see the evolution of Namco's amazing output on that famous gray box. Written retrospectives for every title along with hundreds of screenshots, this is the perfect book for retro gaming fans. Bonus essays are provided by Jason Dvorak from Game-Rave.com, John Linneman from Digital Foundry and DF Retro, Kurt Kalata from HG101 and many other retro gaming books, and Audi Sorlie from Limited Run Games and DF Retro.
The standard paperback edition is the most affordable way to jump into the 32 Bit Library series. It’s a 6” x 9” standard size book. Other formats are also available.
