I've been hunting for a copr of Game Over in the UK since reading the special edition given away with "Arcade" many moons ago (I still have that book).

For a follow up try The "Ultimate History of Video Games" by Kent et al. (the first edition was called "The First Quarter" which covers Video games from Spacewar and the TMRC to the Japanese launch of the PS2, though the bulk of the book is given over to the time up to the N64. It's expensive but thick, well written and doesn't give much space to pictures.

For more illustrations read "High Score" by DeMaria and Wilson, which starts out looking at console evolution then moves on to individual software houses taking each from its inception to (what was then) modern day - the late 1990's. There's a fair amount of PC games in those sections though.
