Generation Xbox: How Videogames Invaded Hollywood by Jamie Russell
Hollywood is under attack from videogames. Movies defined the 20th century but games are now pushing them aside as the medium that captures our time, fascination and money. Generation Xbox digs into the love-hate relationship between games and cinema that has led us to this point. It's a story of disaster, triumph and Angelia Jolie in hot pants. Learn how Steven Spielberg's game-making dreams fell apart and why Silicon Valley pioneers wooed Stanley Kubrick. Discover the story behind the failed Halo movie, how videogame tech paved the way for Avatar, and what companies like Ubisoft and Valve are doing to take gaming to the next level. Based on more than 100 interviews with leading figures from videogames and Hollywood, Generation Xbox is the definitive history of an epic power struggle that has reshaped the entertainment landscape. Are you ready to play?
Jamie Russell is an author, screenwriter, and journalist. His work has appeared in the Sunday Times, the Guardian, Wired, Total Film, EDGE, and many others. His books include Generation Xbox: How Videogames Invaded Hollywood and the bestselling Book of the Dead.
