Join videogame industry veteran Michael Thornton Wyman on a series of
detailed, behind-the-scenes tours with the teams that have made some of
the most popular and critically acclaimed videogames of the modern era.
Drawing on insider's perspectives from a wide variety of teams, learn
about the creation of a tiny, independent game project (World of Goo),
casual game classics (Diner Dash, Bejeweled Twist), the world's most
popular social game (FarmVille) as well as the world's most popular
MMORPG (World of Warcraft), PC titles (Half Life 2) to AAA console games
(Madden NFL 10), and modern-day masterpieces (Little Big Planet, Rock
Band, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves). Hear directly from the creators about
how these games were made, and learn from their stories from the trenches
of videogames production. This book is an excellent resource for those
working directly on game design or production, for those aspiring to work
in the field, or for anyone who has wondered how the world's greatest
videogames get made.
