Latest gaming books out there
I asked this here an Xmas or 2 ago, as my inlaws wanted some gift ideas from me. I got Van Burnham's Supercade book & another IIRC from them back then. Now I'm wondering what some of the newer/later gaming (or related) book titles you've seen/read/heard about, in the past few yrs.
In addition to a book or 2, I'll prob. get a couple Wii pts cards & my RetroGamer mag renewed.

It's about how Counter Strike hit the big tournaments then it follows two teams as they traverse and navigate the tournaments, finally versing each other.
The Legend of the Syndicate
This one is one of a kind because it tells about a real clan and how they upgrade from game to game finally coming to wow.
Can't think of any at the moment.
Seriously, Lenny Herman's Phoenix Third Edition is back in print:

RJ - I see you have Invading Spaces, but what about Commodork?
Also, there's this little-known book called Memoirs of a Virtual Caveman that I've heard is okay...
8bitgamer, your 2nd link wont work for me...is it CHVG 1985-1988?
Thx for the other suggestions. Will look into them.
