Negative Positive
Title: Misleading title
Review: This is not by any rate a book on advanced Java programming! It just has some very ugly 2D swing-based applications (you really cannot call them games..). Avoid like plague. Java game programming is still in a very immature stage but if you' re really, really looking for a decent book on Java game programming try "Developing games in Java" by David Brackeen.
