On this episode Matt & Geoff are joined by Brian Riggsbee of Retro Game Books to discuss video game maps. Physical pack-in maps, HUD mini maps, and all the little points of interest. A map can help you know where to go next in your quest, what you could find along the way, or dream about where your journey may take you. Maps in video games have been doing this since games were more than one screen. You can check out the Video Game Maps series and other great game books on Retro Game Books.
