also just ordered cole protocol so i think i've got the whole halo series now for some reason it was more money than the rest(twice the price £9 infact) which is why i had put off ordering it but i spose it's cause it's a yank import oh well spose it's cheaper than buying a 360 game that'll last me a day if that is there a dead space novel out or is it just a graphic novel thing not too bothered about getting it if it's graphic i'm reading like a trooper now.

I enjoyed the Star Wars novels that featured the Clone Troopers from "Republic Commando" , the novels were a spin off from the game , I plan on picking the Halo series up soon enough , once I finish reading the Harry Potter books (Adult Covers I may hasten to add :))

I like reading about the history of gaming as I was practically there from the beginning and really enjoy going down memory lane over the old 8 bit games :)

i have looked at the star war's book's but there's that many of them i don't know where to start the old republic one's look cool though.

I read a few Star Trek books back in the day and they were alright... they didn't half drag on a bit in places, though.

Re: anybody read videogame book's
 

Is the Cole Protocol really that much?!
I need to buy that and Contact Harvest and that's all of them.

Just started reading Ghosts of Onyx. TBH it was the one I least wanted to read for some reason. But so far it's my favourite. It's refreshing that it isn't based entirely around Master Chief and you get to know a lot more about the Halo universe, also Eric Nylund is an awesome writer.

Buy the other two when I get chance.

Since you read the books, ZSV, do you also play the games?

Re: anybody read videogame book's
 

In the books, are the battles at all like the games in their descriptions?

Which is to say, armies of Spartans and Elites hopping at each other screaming 'FAG NOOBLAR!'

Re: anybody read videogame book's
 

i havnt found it any cheaper it seem's to have not been imported over here very much or that's what ive found and yes i've got all the halo game's and play the lot looking forward to odst and the reach game there doing should be good no master cheif in odst though don't know how a human can lay the smackdown on a brute as well :D.

Re: anybody read videogame book's
 

i havnt got to reading any of them yet i'm still on gear's of war at the minute which is a good read the fighting scene's in that are bloodier than the game if that's possible.
