Title: great book for the beginner
Review: I loved this book from the start, some people might not like LaMothe's very personal writing style, but to me it felt like he was talking to ME which makes the book very pleasant to read. Tons of examples, both for the beginner and more experienced programmers about the most common gaming problems. However this book is for 2d, the 3d stuff is on the CD and who likes to try to read 100+ pages of word documents? Also I miss DirectPlay, network games are almost the standard these days.
Is the review positive or negative?
