50 years of game history, as told through 60 games
Briefly

Julian Rignall, a veteran in the gaming industry, has penned 'The Games of a Lifetime', blending personal memoir with historical insight into 50 years of gaming. Rather than a strict autobiography or an exhaustive encyclopedia, Rignall curates his significant gaming experiences, contextualized within broader pop culture. This unique narrative approach, dubbed "video game time travel", allows readers to connect emotionally with the game's history and culture, reflecting on the profound changes in the gaming landscape over decades.
Ultimately, I wanted to highlight my own most memorable and notable gaming experiences and present them as a "history as it happened" kind of thing.
Julian Rignall describes his book as "video game time travel", aiming to weave personal memories with gaming history and context.
