5.0

Some people say 5 stars aren't meant for anything with 'videogame' in the title. I am not one of those people.

Bogost nails the fusion between philosophy, poetry, videogames, television, film, marketing strategies, computer science and much much more as he explains his phenomenal framework of unit operational logic in developing a common approach to videogame criticism. He unites the humanities and hard sciences in a fascinating way just as he sought to at the outset. LOVELY! (very hard jargon tho)
