Itchy, Tasty: An Unofficial History of Resident Evil

As a fan of the games since I first got my shoulder chewed off back in '96, I was looking forward to this resume of the Resident Evil games. I wasn't disappointed. Alex's book is an in-depth look at all the games and includes plenty of nuggets of info for even a hard core fan such as myself.It's written in a really relaxed style and includes lots of quotes from original developers, also making it an invaluable resource for a games journalist. Every Resi fan should buy this.

An absolute must have for any fan of the "RESIDENT EVIL" Saga, Some of the things in the book I knew about, others I didn't.A fantastic insight to the behind the scenes creation of these epic games.

Um bom item para qualquer fã dos videojogos. Produto em bom estado.

As unfortunate as this is to say, I believe most except for the very least informed should pass on this book.Most of the information contained within is a synopsis of how the games work/are played (which will be obvious to anyone with even an iota of playtime in any of the classic releases), trivia that could be found easily through Google searches or YouTube viewing, and tiny snippits of interesting quotes and thoughts from those who worked on the games.The typeface is very large and compressed into the pages (of a relatively cheap-feeling paper stock and binding), giving the impression that the scant material is being stretched to its limits, and would have served better as a long web article.At the asking price (nearly 30 dollars US) only fans will be buying this unofficial book, and they will not be getting almost anything new or unique from it if they have been fans for any length of time.As someone who both bought this book and has been viewing & playing RE games since the first released on Playstation, I was deeply disappointed with this book, and would not generally recommend it.

I love unofficial behind-the-scenes works; they often feel more honest than company-sanctioned releases. This is a solid book that reveals the story of one of Capcom's greatest creations!
