_The Game Boy Encyclopedia_ is the sixth book in Scottish author and journalist Chris Scullion’s critically-acclaimed series of video game encyclopedias. There are few video game systems as iconic and important as the Nintendo Game Boy. Released in 1989, the handheld’s humble green-tinted display allowed for a low-cost portable console that won over players where it mattered most: the quality of its games. From huge early successes like the iconic Tetris and Super Mario Land to its revival years later with the groundbreaking Pokémon games, the Game Boy stands proudly as one of the greatest gaming systems ever. Its 1998 successor, the Game Boy Color, addressed the one main weak spot in the Game Boy’s armour and offered full-colour games. Combined, nearly 120 million Game Boy and Game Boy Color handhelds were sold worldwide, with both models playing a huge role in so many childhoods (and adulthoods). This book contains every game released in the west for both handhelds: around 580 on the Game Boy and around 560 on the Game Boy Color. With around 1,150 games covered in total, screenshots and trivia factoids for every single title and a light-hearted writing style designed for an informative but entertaining read, ...

‘Mendelsohn takes the classical costumes off figures like Virgil and Sappho, Homer and Horace … He writes about things so clearly they come to feel like some of the most important things you have ever been told.’ Sebastian BarryOver the past three decades, Daniel Mendelsohn’s essays and reviews have earned him a reputation as ‘our most irresistible literary critic’ (New York Times). This striking new collection exemplifies the way in which Mendelsohn – a classicist by training – uses the classics as a lens to think about urgent contemporary debates.There is much to surprise here. Mendelsohn invokes the automatons featured in Homer’s epics to help explain the AI films Ex Machina and Her, and perceives how Ted Hughes sought redemption by translating a play of Euripides (the ‘bad boy of Athens’) about a wayward husband whose wife returns from the dead. There are essays on Sappho’s sexuality and the feminism of Game of Thrones; on how Virgil’s Aeneid prefigures post-World War II history and why we are still obsessed with the Titanic; on Patrick Leigh Fermor’s final journey, Karl Ove Knausgaard’s autofiction and the plays of Tom Stoppard, Tennessee Williams, and Noël Coward.

The strange and wonderful tale of man’s experiences on Mars, filled with intense images and astonishing visions.The classic work that transformed Ray Bradbury into a household name.Written in the age of the atom when America and Europe optimisitcally viewed the discovery of life on Mars as inevitable, Bradbury’s 1940s short stories of a brutal, stark and unforgiving martian landscape were as shocking and visionary as they were insightful.‘The Martian Chronicles’ tells the story of humanity’s repeated attempts to colonize the red planet. The first men were few. Most succumbed to a disease they called the Great Loneliness when they saw their home planet dwindle to the size of a pin dot. Those few that survived found no welcome. The shape-changing Martians thought they were native lunatics and duly locked them up.More rockets arrived from Earth, piercing the hallucinations projected by the Martians. People brought their old prejudices with them – and their desires and fantasies, tainted dreams. These were soon inhabited by the strange native beings, with their caged flowers and birds of flame.

Blu-ray film Roger Waters The Wall HD [2014]. České titulky. Dolby Digital. Zážitková road movie, která zachycuje světové koncertní turné zakládajícího člena legendární britské skupiny Pink Floyd v letech 2010 až 2013. Záběry, pořízené ve třech městech na dvou kontinentech, putují mezi 150 metrů dlouhým jevištěm a zákulisím, ze kterého vše exkluzivně komentuje sám Waters. Divákům se naskytne pohled na úchvatnou hudební a vizuální show, ve které nechybí pyrotechnika, bohaté projekce a před zraky rostoucí monumentální zeď. Waters při tvorbě ohromující rock'n'rollové show doslova zhmotnil vlastní imaginaci a protiválečné vize – stejně jako původní dvojalbum rockové opery z roku 1979 nese i film silné pacifistické poselství a stopuje Watersovu osobní minulost, kterou tvrdě zatížila otcova a dědečkova smrt ve světových válkách.Bonusy:ČASOSBĚRNÉ VIDEOSedm dní natáčení v řeckých Aténách a osm dní velkolepých příprav v argentinském BuenosAires na rekordních devět vyprodaných koncertů v řaděNÁVŠTĚVA U FRANKA THOMPSONAKrátký film natočený během tour.

Užijte si perfektní HD obraz a čistý digitální zvuk s BLU-RAY filmem Walk the Line (2005). Skvělý Joaquin Phoenix jako Johnny Cash. V roce 1955 vkráčel drsný, vyzáblý kytarista, který si říkal J. R. Cash, do tehdy ještě neznámých Sun Studios v Memphisu. Tento okamžik měl později nesmazatelný vliv na vývoj americké kultury. Za pomoci úderných akordů a hlasu, který byl hluboký a temný jako noc, přiváděl Cash s obrovskou intenzitou na svět písně o zármutku a bolesti, které byly odvážné, plné skutečného života a lišily se od všeho, co mělo publikum do té doby možnost slyšet. Ten den odstartovala úvodní etapa dlouhé kariéry Johnnyho Cashe. Kromě toho, že přišel s průkopnickým a originálním zvukem, který se později měl stát inspirací pro rockové, countryové, punkové, folkové i rapové hvězdy, vydal se také na cestu dramatické osobní proměny. Během nejdramatičtější etapy svého života - v průběhu níž stál tváří v tvář svým démonům, bojoval o lásku, která mu pomohla odrazit se ode dna, a naučil se balancovat na tenké hranici mezi zkázou a spásou - se změnil ze sebedestruktivní popové hvězdy v kultovního "Muže v černém".Bonusy: • Prodloužená verze filmu • Komentář spoluautora scénáře a režiséra Jamese Mangolda
