About this listen
In Episode 003 of the Text Adventure Podcast from the Text Adventure Book Club, we dive into Boss Fight Books: GoldenEye 007 by Alyse Knorr, a smart and nostalgic deep dive into one of the most influential video games of all time.
Part of the acclaimed Boss Fight Books series, Knorr’s book explores how GoldenEye 007 reshaped first-person shooters on consoles, defined multiplayer for a generation, and became a cultural phenomenon in the late 1990s. Blending history, criticism, and personal reflection, the book traces the game’s unlikely development at Rare, its lasting legacy, and why it still matters today.
We talk about what the book taught us about creativity under pressure, the magic of couch co-op, the importance of the preservation of digital media and how GoldenEye 007 helped shape our own relationships with games.
