Did Microsoft hire this guy to write down the "story" of the holiness that is Xbox? I suspect this book is pushed more by Microsoft than any demand of the consumers.
Do consumers even want this book? I hear much interest in companies such as Atari and Nintendo, mostly due to nostalgia and due to their impact, and perhaps the playstation 1, but I have never heard anyone go, "You know what I need? A book detailing the history of Xbox chronology."
