I'm sure the royalties off of your $1.99 aren't gonna propel him too much to blame yourself.

Maybe he's the type that rejects all things Kotaku? They do some stupid things from time to time, but yeah Schreier is one of the few people in gaming press that actually does good journalism.

I'm not sure why you feel that way, he's one of the best and most respected Video Game journalists out there.

I really enjoyed this book, I learned a lot about how games were made. Not in a technical way but the workflow of game development, and who is who, like developers, producers, etc. And this book is really an eye opener, I don't want to spoil it for others, but for $2 this is a steal!

Thanks. Giving it a shot. Amazon gave me $.20 toward another book, too, so...$1.79 essentially.

This. Much of his work is exaggerated, so has to be taken with a grain of salt. Also, offline pretty awful person in general.

I get what your saying but how he has behaved with YongYea and other YouTubers comes across as very arrogant.

Many of us will have Kindle credits expiring soon with those free-kindle-credit Amazon deals a little while back. Good use for it. I now have $8 left.

I didn't realize there was sales tax on e-books, wtf.
