About this book

John Carmack and John Romero turned their interests in computer games into a business, then became rivals. David Kushner's account follows the creators of Doom and Quake, contrasting Carmack's programming discipline with Romero's approach to design. Their partnership places technical innovation, business ambition and the growth of gaming communities within the same history.
