What are your favorite video game books?

Including novelizations, art books, strategy guides, history, critical analysis, etc. The photo above is my little collection. I'm probably most excited about From Ants to Zombies — Six Decades of Video Game Horror. (Although I've yet to read that one.)

What a good looking stack!

Shoot I don't know, I feel like I've read so few overall. There were those Myst novels like The Book of D'ni which I know left an impression at the time, but I can't seem to remember anything about them now. :S

I own this and it's SFC counterpart. They're relatively inexpensive and nice to look at. I think the price was only about ~$30 where I got it.

I'm gonna revive this thread! Some of my favorites, though I may be a bit biased...

A Handheld History
Haikara Walker and Bancala Walker (Splatoon Artbooks!)
Sega Arcade Pop-up History
Artcade

I'm also reading the official Death Stranding novelizations and about to start re-reading all of the Splinter Cell books.
