1800. KONAMI ALL PRODUCTS 1998
(コナミ年鑑’98)

👉 www.thevideogamelibrary.org/book/konami-...

1998 was a big year for #Konami. They hit a home run with #MetalGearSolid and revolutionized the rhythm genre with #DDR. So to celebrate, it only made sense to start releasing these annual catalogue yearbooks.

By 1998, #AgeOfEmpires was getting a ton of literary love, mainly in the form of guidebooks. This included quite a few German publications, like this one from #SYBEX.

1797. TUROK - ADVENTURE #3: ARENA OF DOOM

👉 www.thevideogamelibrary.org/book/turok-a...

In 1998, a series of #Turok junior novels released.

In this 3rd entry, Turok seeks a way home, stages a daring rescue, and fights again in the arena against the most depraved Campaigner yet!

#Gaming #Booksky
Cover of Turok: Arena of Doom by Michael Teitelbaum, labeled as "Adventure #3" and based on the best-selling video game. The illustration shows a muscular hero sprinting through a crumbling, flaming coliseum-like structure, wearing tribal-style gear and a headband with blue and red goggles. In the background, a smaller figure runs behind him while a dinosaur chases close by. Explosions and falling pillars fill the chaotic scene. The title uses bold, stylized fonts with “ARENA OF” in green and pink, and “DOOM” in a vibrant rainbow gradient.
