A mesmerizing, behind-the-scenes business thriller that chronicles how Sega, a small, scrappy gaming company led by an unlikely visionary and a team of rebels, took on the juggernaut Nintendo and revolutionized the video-game industry. In 1990, Nintendo had a virtual monopoly on the video-game industry. Sega, on the other hand, was just a faltering arcade company with big aspirations and even bigger personalities. But all that would change with the arrival of Tom Kalinske, a former Mattel executive who knew nothing about video games and everything about fighting uphill battles.

Histoire
At the end of the fifteenth century, Burgundy was extinguished as an independent state. It had been a fabulously wealthy, turbulent region situated between France and Germany, with close links to the English kingdom. Torn apart by the dynastic struggles of early modern Europe, this extraordinary realm vanished from the map. But it became the cradle of what we now know as the Low Countries, modern Belgium and the Netherlands. This is the story of a thousand years, a must-listen narrative history of ambitious aristocrats, family dysfunction, treachery, savage battles, luxury, and madness.

Seasoned music writer Dan Ozzi chronicles this embattled era in punk. Focusing on eleven prominent bands who made the jump from indie to major, Sellout charts the twists and turns of the last “gold rush” of the music industry, where some groups “sold out” and rose to surprise super stardom, while others buckled under mounting pressures. Sellout is both a gripping history of the music industry’s evolution, and a punk rock lover’s guide to the chaotic darlings of the post-grunge era.

Description
Developing video games - hero's journey or fool's errand? The creative and technical logistics that go into building today's hottest games can be more harrowing and complex than the games themselves, often seeming like an endless maze or a bottomless abyss. In Blood, Sweat, and Pixels, Jason Schreier takes listeners on a fascinating odyssey behind the scenes of video game development, where the creator may be a team of 600 overworked underdogs or a solitary geek genius. Exploring the artistic challenges, technical impossibilities, marketplace demands, and Donkey Kong-size monkey wrenches thrown into the works by corporate, Blood, Sweat, and Pixels reveals how bringing any game to completion is more than Sisyphean - it's nothing short of miraculous.
Taking some of the most popular, best-selling recent games, Schreier immerses listeners in the hellfire of the development process, whether it's RPG studio Bioware's challenge to beat an impossible schedule and overcome countless technical nightmares to build Dragon Age: Inquisition; indie developer Eric Barone's single-handed efforts to grow country-life RPG Stardew Valley from one man's vision into a multimillion-dollar franchise; or Bungie spinning out from their corporate overlords at Microsoft to create Destiny, a brand-new universe that they hoped would become as iconic as Star Wars and Lord of the Rings - even as it nearly ripped their studio apart.
Documenting the round-the-clock crunches, buggy-eyed burnout, and last-minute saves, Blood, Sweat, and Pixels is a journey through development hell - and ultimately a tribute to the dedicated diehards and unsung heroes who scale mountains of obstacles in their quests to create the best games imaginable.

Good, but a little one sided
I enjoyed the stories in the book but it does come across like Schreier has an axe to grind. As a developer, I have a different insight to most reading this book and it just *feels* a little exaggerated. After working on both AAA and indie games I can safely say that the industry isn't this chaotic. But I guess the only people willing to really talk to journalists are people in extreme cases on either end of the spectrum. Generally, the job is a lot more down the middle of the road without many of the issues of crunch nor the call to unionize.

Book changes your view on the video game industry
I really enjoyed this book. When the the last chapter played and the book was over I was sad. I enjoyed listening on my commute to work in software development stories about the video game development life and challenges. Very relatable. At first I put this book on play and fell asleep listening to it in bed. When I finally gave it a proper focused listen, it had me so interested. This book with voice acting could make for a awesome podcast every week with industry insight.

An amazing listen. A fascinating insight into the manic world of video game development. Just as informative as it is entertaining and fascinating. So many good stories into some of the biggest video game development stories of the 21st century. A great behind the scenes look into what really goes into creating the games that we know and love - from indie-level to big-budget studio games.

I loved taking a stroll through the various difficulties of different games I have enjoyed over the years. Amazing to think these developers work such insane hours without getting more pay, sad but their dedication is inspiring.

An easy read worthy of any gamer’s time
Anyone familiar with gaming news knows Jason is “the guy” when it comes to reliable sourcing. This book reads more like an extended report than a novel but it’s still really enjoyable, and the video games he chose to include in the book are fantastic choices. Big names everywhere. I look forward to more of his work, already started his second book.
Leaves a regular average joe consumer feeling like an insider.
