'A labour of undiluted love and enthusiasm' Daily Telegraph As Daniel Hardcastle careers towards thirty, he looks back on what has really made him happy in life: the friends, the romances... the video games. Told through encounters with the most remarkable – and the most mind-boggling – games of the last thirty-odd years, Fuck Yeah, Video Games is also a love letter to the greatest hobby in the world. From God of War to Tomb Raider, Pokémon to The Sims, Daniel relives each game with countless in-jokes, obscure references and his signature wit, as well as intricate, original illustrations by Rebecca Maughan. Alongside this march of merriment are chapters dedicated to the hardware behind the games: a veritable history of Sony, Nintendo, Sega and Atari consoles. Joyous, absurd, personal and at times sweary, Daniel's memoir is a celebration of the sheer brilliance of video games.
"Henning Sussebach -- ZEIT-Redakteur und vielfach preisgekrönter Journalist -- erkundet in seinen Reportagen das Unscheinbare und scheinbar Nebensächliche. Ob Sussebach Europas grössten Friedhof in Hamburg-Ohlsdorf besucht, im Selbstversuch als Obdachloser in der reichen Taunusgemeinde Kronberg und in Berlin-Neukölln um Solidarität und Mitgefühl seiner Mitmenschen ringt, die letzten Tage eines traditionsreichen Kaufhauses in der niedersächsischen Provinz beobachtet oder im bayerischen Passau eine Flüchtlingsfamilie begleitet - stets zeigt er, wie grosse gesellschaftliche Umbrüche das Leben des Einzelnen verändern und wie Menschen mit solchen Situationen umgehen. Präzise in seinen Beobachtungen, vielstimmig und frei von Sozialromantik entwickelt Sussebach in seinen Geschichten ein so differenziertes wie oft überraschendes Porträt der gegenwärtigen Bundesrepublik."--
