This review is really nicely done. It's impossible to be comprehensive for a game of this magnitude, but Petit takes a great shot at it--Finding so much to admire while citing the game's failings. Without reading any of them, I'm going to assume that the other 21,000 comments on here are saying the same thing.

@Coco_pierrot All would make great books. In fact, fans almost voted for FFVI but chose Chrono instead.

@Prats1993 Very true, but we really want to get a mix of books about bestselling classics AND under-appreciated gems. As with Anna and ZZT, I knew I wanted to work with Darius. And JA2 is his all-time favorite. He also had access to the developers, which is huge, and something that's less possible with say, Super Mario Bros 2.

@WeWerePirates I know the price is up there but you're right--It's subsidizing the whole project, including the LLC fees, ISBNs, and the (forthcoming) new website. So our generous backers and pre-orderers have literally made the whole thing possible.

AND. Please note: The $20 includes shipping. :)

Hey! Just wanted to say thanks so much to Maxwell for waiting patiently through all our rants until we said something he could use. On the phone, I talked for 10 mins about whether you should capitalized the B in EarthBound, and Ken kept quoting rappers and talking shit about Pitchfork.

If anybody has questions about Boss Fight, you're welcome to ask them on here or Twitter ( @bossfightbooks ), and you can check out our 6 launch titles at http://bossfightbooks.com. There's also an excerpt from our EarthBound book that you can read here.

@monstachruck You a Jagged Alliance fan? Darius Kazemi is writing a book about JA2 from new interviews he's been doing with the devs. http://bossfightbooks.wordpress.com/2013/08/01/jagged-alliance-2/

@starduke YES. We are absolutely going to do newer games. Anything that's not currently its first big sales cycle tornado is fair game.
