A Pocket Tour of Games on the Internet [Paperback]

Scott Taves (Author)


Available from these sellers.



Book Description

May 1995
This is a pocket-sized guide to all the games available to Internet users. It covers computer games discussions, demos and downloads, as well as text-based and role-playing games. Games company sites and video games resources are included. Each "Pocket Tour of the Internet" book contains short, review like entries and discusses all major Internet resources - Usenet, Gopher, World Wide Web and others. The books are divided into two parts: the first part provides orientation, explaining what the Internet is, how to get there, and what the customs are. It also includes information on costs, lingo and "netiquette". The second part describes resources and provides background information in sidebars on a variety of related topics.

Editorial Reviews

Review

From news groups and Web sites to chat groups oriented to specific games, Taves provides an excellent guide to locating and surveying the net’s interactive games and those of others. Use the Net to play games, get information about games, and learn of future games to come; especially with the addresses packed into this guide. -- Midwest Book Review
