This week on Gameoration, Taylor brings in a Good Guys and Bad Guys of Video Games book he picked up from his daughter’s school, and it quickly turns into a fascinating trip through gaming history.
As we flip through the pages, we can’t help but wonder: was this book written by passionate gamers sharing their favorite characters, or was it designed to market and promote the newest games of its era? We break down the choices, the rankings, the characters included, and whether the book feels more like a celebration of gaming or a giant advertisement.
It’s part nostalgia trip, part gaming archaeology, and part conspiracy theory.
