    It's impossible to constantly play video games, but StoryBundle's Video Game Bundle 2.0 has a collection of ebooks on gaming culture to fill the void. Video Game Bundle 2.0 includes the following ebooks to read in your gaming downtime (at work, in school, while bonding with friends and family), starting at just $3: Dreamcast Worlds by Zoya Street, Vaporware by Richard Dansky, Kill Screen Issue #1: No Fun by Kill Screen Magazine, The Guide to Classic Graphic Adventures edited by Kurt Kalata, Kill Screen Issue #7: The Great Outdoors by Kill Screen Magazine and Blue Wizard is About to Die by Seth Barkan. Pay more than $10 and add Replay: The History of Video Games by Tristan Donovan, Rise of the Video Game Zinesters by Anna Anthropy and A Slow Year by Ian Bogost. That last one is an ebook and a game in one. StoryBundle, much like Humble Bundle, allows customers to split their payments among the authors, the site itself and charities Mighty Writers or Girls Write Now.

    The new StoryBundle – a pay-what-you-want, DRM-free collection of eBooks – offers an instant collection of game history and culture, including Jordan Mechner's journals for Karateka and Prince of Persia, Videogames: In the Beginning by Ralph Baer (who would know!), Brendan Keogh's Killing is Harmless, a longform review/critique of Spec Ops: The Line, a couple of Kill Screen issues, and more. To get all the books, you need to pay at least $10; however, you can pay anything and get merely most of them. Either way, your ebook reader is going to be loaded up with game history.
