The Art of Game Worlds

Summary: Not just a coffee table book
Review: I was expecting just that, a coffee table book with minimal insights on the techniques and thoughts behind the images, but not so. This is a decent book for just browsing through gorgeous images from games or the concept art behind them, but for a practising artist, it is probably more interesting to get nuggets of wisdom from the artists responsible. Don't expect any tutorials, wireframes, WIP shots and the like, but none the less there is interesting information in those interviews, which might just teach you a few new tricks or give you a few ideas for your own work. It did me.
