There are about six hundred million of these.

There are about six hundred million of these.

But how many are 120 pages worth?

Plus, how many start with the original video game that was literally 30 years ahead of its time?

Not that one. OXO was almost 10 years before Spacewar! and there was a "missile simulation game" 5 years before that (according to wiki)

I actually have "High Score". You can find it here

It's quite excellent, and there's even a second edition I have yet to read. This book has TONS of illustrations, timelines, special edition systems, game lists, everything. It's a fantastic magazine-type read, and I highly recommend it.
