Steven Poole was a columnist for Edge Magazine for a long time, and he’s has written some books on games.
Steven has now decided (prompted by Amazon’s Kindle launch as he mentions) to offer for free his game-related ebook Trigger Happy, which was released in 2000.
As he says in his blog:
Trigger Happy is a book about the aesthetics of videogames — what they share with cinema, the history of painting, or literature; and what makes them different, in terms of form, psychology and semiotics.
A good reading even if you don’t like games, free and released under a Creative Commons license. Trigger happy has just become my weekend book 
As you might have noticed, I haven’t post anything here since 8-Bit Revolution “opened”. It has taken some considerable amount of the time I dedicate to blogging, but I’m not complaining. 8-Bit Revolution has been very fun to work on and it is having a great feedback from the readers.
Speaking of which, 8-Bit Revolution is asking the readers to submit photos of their old Spectrum computers to make a special gallery. Drop by and take a look.
Gostava de vos convidar a visitar o 8-Bit Revolution, um projecto que já tinha na gaveta há algum tempo mas que agora teve uma oportunidade de “saltar cá para fora”. Para os amantes de videojogos ou até mesmo para os curiosos sobre o assunto, o 8-Bit Revolution é acima de tudo uma visão diferente do que é hoje em dia a indústria dos videojogos.
O convite está feito!
