Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prior to the arrival of the Sega Genesis, video games were still largely considered "kid stuff," but with a far more mature and eclectic range of titles, and an understanding of what gamers wanted, Sega and its Genesis/Mega Drive console began to shift the expectations for what gaming could be. Never scared to innovate, Sega's impact on the industry continues to this day through the games they originally developed and the technology their consoles pushed into the mainstream. Featuring interviews with the creators of over 40 games on the Sega Genesis console including Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Altered Beast, Aladdin, Earthworm Jim and NHL 95, this book gives a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of some of the influential, iconic, and sometimes forgotten games on Sega's most important contribution to the game industry. The interviewees reveal the challenges of working with mega publishers, the uncertainties of public reception, and the creative processes that produced some of the 16-bit era's classic titles.

Book excerpt: Ed Ward and his stepson Ghost, aka Polterguys, have finally hit the big time! Business is booming and Ghost's bio-dad, Vinny Stephens (yes, THAT Vinny Stephens!) is not only making a movie about them, but the famous actor has hired them for a ridiculous amount of money! Things couldn't be better! Well, except for one tiny little detail. Someone seems to have put out a hit out on Ed. If Ed can get through one last job without getting killed, he can hide out in Hollywood. After all, nobody could possibly track him down in California! But with Ed's usual luck, the hired killer finds him anyway. Ed reaches out to his contact at the top-secret goverment agency known simply as the Agency, who sends some very familiar faces to help. Ed and Ghost fumble through their trickiest case yet in the fourth book of the Polterguys series.

Armed with Wordbirds, you will be able to skillfully talk your way into—or out of—any situation the twenty-first century throws at you.
