I got my copy of the book yesterday. It's really awesome to behold so much info in one place. Kurt should really be applauded for the hard work he put into this book, both editing and writing. It's so amazing to see HG101 in book form -- and it's really kind of what it should be in all honesty. I feel like HG101's output should be a nice heavy collection of books just like this. :D

Still missing out on Nightshade (NES) and Shadowrun (SNES)! Damn you HG101!

(Under $20. That's... enticing though.)
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

I like the idea of running a review of this book in an issue of YSG, but obviously I don't want to review it seeing as how I'm in it and that's pretty conflict-of-interest-y. Just curious who ended up buying/reading it?

I just bought the Kindle Edition a few seconds ago; at $10, it was too good of a deal to pass up. :)

If you're an Amazon Prime member with a Kindle, it's free as part of the library program. I'm a prime member without a kindle. :(

Too bad that an iPad with a Kindle app does not qualify.

As for buying it for $5, I'm trying to not buy anything more as I have a bunch of magazines (Edge, NGamer, etc) that I need to get through.
