It's a real nostalgia trip, with so many references throughout, that there will be something for everyone.
However, I had seen the film a few years ago, and I feel like this allowed me to get drawn into the world faster, as I already had a feel for it, so some of the gaps were already filled in for me.
The main draw for this book was watching the main characters pure enjoyment of the puzzles, and the real time peril of the chase and competition. It gave a real sense of what video games are truly about - escapism.
There is a lot I could say about this book, as it touched on a great deal of real world issues, and couldn't be more relevant to now.
Overall, there are a lot more pros than cons, and I'd highly recommend!
