Thread: EOFF is mentioned in a book!

  1. #1

    Default EOFF is mentioned in a book!

    I was reading a book called Game Development Essentials, by
    Jeannie Novak, a great book if you're interested in the gaming business but not part of it yet. Well, near the end of the book (one of the last chapters) there is a small section on how to get info on games. The bottom left corner of the page shows a picture of EOFF as an example. I was quite suprised.

    Can you scan the page in for us?

    Why not? Is viewing the front page of EoFF something you have to pay for? If it showed content that had to be paid for, there'd be a legal argument. If it was even just private and you had to register for it, maybe. But it's public and free.

    That's pretty nifty. How new is the book? I'm curious if it's the new EoFF style or the classic blue one.

    Uhm, I think they mean scanning the page out of a copyrighted book is illegal. I have this book, and never freakin noticed this.... I will check it out when I get home.

    Unless they mean scanning the page and posting it here.

    Nobody will mind. If they do, we'll tell them it was scanned in and posted by accident.
