I'm new to the forum and I wanted to introduce myself before I make the sales-pitch  .  My name is Jose R. Leon and I'm currently a world record holder on Twin Galaxies for the arcade game Marvel Super Heroes. I'm a video game fanatic and I just released my first video game inspired book.

I attended yesterday's CCAG Show (http://www.ccagshow.com) and had a great time meeting fellow players and sharing video game stories. I wanted to debut the book at the show before making it available to the public and now it's finally time  .

The book is titled "Lost in a Video Game World - my life in a cartridge" and it deals with my experiences growing up playing video games and my connections to them. Which as I had imagined, and after talking to all the people yesterday, many others can relate to also.

From the decay of the arcade years, the rebirth of video gaming by Nintendo's NES after the video game crash of '83, to the modern day realism of "Call of Duty - MW2", it covers many eras of the gaming industry.

The book is 106 pages. It has 8 chapters plus a foreword, preface and introduction. All of the chapters are started with a poem and there are actually 4 extra poems included in the book.

The book is only $10.00 Shipped to anywhere in the USA and if you are interested in getting a copy outside of the states, please email me at lostinavideogameworld@yahoo.com and we can discuss the shipping charges privately.

To receive your signed copy you can pay via paypal:

Play ON!
