envy."

"As innovative ways to display 60 years of gaming history go, this
book is one of the best we've ever seen and we highly recommend
it."

"Push Start immediately screams quality. From its embossed
pixellated front cover to its vinyl record-concealing back, each
vividly colourful page recounts a classic title from days gone by.
The back cover hides an amazing bonus, too - a 12 inch vinyl record
filled with remixes of iconic themes and tunes from some of gaming
history's most important and influential titles."

"Push Start is a book that all gamers should own [...] and a piece
of art in its own right. This book is a monolith in both size and
weight and it is something to be worshipped if you love video games
from all generations."

"Push Start is a visual feast with a great dollop of nostalgia
sauce on top. If you are into video games, you should buy this
book. If you know someone who is--or was--into video games, it is
the perfect Christmas gift." www.designersreviewofbooks.com,

"The book takes us on a pixelated journey and reminding us of an
exciting time in pop culture as the computer age began to give us
fun and life long memories [...] a must have book for gamers of any
age."
