Three days left until Press Reset
Hi there! Quick update from me today: we’re three days out from my new book Press Reset: Ruin and Recovery in the Video Game Industry, and I couldn’t be more excited. The best part about writing a book is that moment when it’s finally in people’s hands. I’ve been doing a bunch of podcasts and interviews to promote the book, some of which aren’t out yet, but here are a few notable links:
My interview with The Verge on why even successful game studios close and how the insatiable shareholder need for growth causes problems for everyone: https://www.theverge.com/2021/5/8/22412497/press-reset-jason-schreier-video-game-studio-shutdown-book-interview
This extremely fun Defector podcast ep with Drew Magary and David Roth about Curt Schilling’s love for centaurs and, of course, the Jets: https://defector.com/curt-schilling-demands-more-centaurs-with-jason-schreier/
An episode of Triple Click all about the book, the video game industry’s woes, and why I’m still optimistic despite the bleakness of it all: https://maximumfun.org/episodes/triple-click/pressing-reset-on-the-video-game-industry/
Much more to come! For now, you can still pre-order the book wherever’s most convenient for you. (Amazon, Bookshop, Audible, etc) Three days to go!!!
