Looking for a good coffee table book? High Score: The Illustrated History of Electronic Games goes through the history of video games in pictures – because heck knows that we like to read as little as possible. The book is chock full of photos, advertisements, game box art and arcade cabinets. Old PC games are included as well as your favorite retro consoles. The High Score: The Illustrated History of Electronic Games retails for $79.99 which is kind of expensive but what can we say, we love picture books. (Source: GameInformer, June ’08)
