Sports Video Games - SLJ
This series explores the history and development of video games for various sports, beginning with early systems like Atari and moving to today’s advanced consoles. Each book focuses on a specific sport, tracing how its games evolved from basic graphics to life-like visuals and how they incorporated real-life star players and fan input. While the information is detailed, the books strictly cover development history and lack content many young readers often seek, such as game strategies or cheat codes. Although the series includes colorful photos of games through the years and moments from real-life sports, its appeal is likely limited to hardcore gaming enthusiasts or researchers.
