I just received a book that will keep me busy for weeks: "1001 Video Games You Must Play Before You Die."
It's over 900 pages, weighs more than 5 pounds, covers 1001 top games in chronological order from the 70's through to 2010, has a foreword by Peter Molyneux, is edited by Tony Mott, editor-in-chief of Edge Magazine, and is 1001 pieces of awesome.
I wonder how long it would take someone to track down and play through all 1001 games...
