Der Film-Fan und Yale-Student Jordan Mechner ist 27 und – dank zweier Heimcomputer-Hits – plötzlich ein erfolgreicher, international bekannter Spieldesigner: "Ich sollte Memoiren schreiben. Angefangen mit 15, als ich meinen ersten Apple II bekam, bis zur Veröffentlichung von Prince of Persia. Eine gute Story, ein Stück Geschichte, meine!“, notiert er am 14. Februar 1992, aber auch: „Keine Ahnung, wer das lesen soll! Auch mag ich eigentlich keine Leute, die Memoiren schreiben, wenn sie jung sind, total selbstgefällig … " Das Tagebuch, das Mechner trotz seiner Bedenken beginnt, begleitet seinen Versuch, das erfolgreiche Debütspiel "Karateka" noch zu toppen, und beschreibt die Entstehung und Vermarktung des Meisterwerks ""Prince of Persia". Es läd in die wilde, goldene 8- und 16-Bit-Zeit und lässt uns am rastlosen Leben eines jungen Kreativen teilhaben, der zwischen Leinwand und Pixeln seinen Platz sucht – und dabei weltberühmt wird. Mechners Erinnerungen und Skizzen sind zeitgeschichtliche Dokumente, sehr persönliche Einblicke in die frühe Game-Entwicklung und die Entstehung digitaler Narrative. Historischer Content aus erster Hand, ein Software- und Selbstfindungs-Märchen, das wahr wird: Die offizielle Fassung der Tagebücher 1985 - 1993 präsentiert Mechners Originalzeichnungen, Designdokumente und Geschäftsunterlagen. Ebenfalls ergänzt in der dt. Übertragung sind Anhänge mit Erläuterungen zu Personen, Unternehmen, zeitgenössischen Begriffen und Spielen – reicher Kontext und viele Hintergründe zu einer Ära, die eine neue Kunstform und eine Milliarden-Industrie hervorbringt.

This suit was perfect for prom. The fit was clean, the material looked high quality, and the texture gave it a unique look. Definitely worth it.

Award winning tuxedo!
Size: Large, Color: Baby Pink, Size: Large, Color: Baby Pink
Love this tuxedo suit! I’ve worn it a few times - to two different weddings and an Academy Awards viewing party, where I even won for best dressed. I get so many comments on it. The jacket and vest fit perfectly, however the pants are long and I had to hem them, but “stitch witchery” tape worked fine. The pants are also a little “stiff” - not a smooth fabric. But for occasional wear, it’s fine! The bow tie was sold separately.

Slim fit
Size: Large, Color: Brown
I recently purchased the brown slim-fit suit and am very impressed! For reference, I’m 6’2” and 222 lbs, and while I usually wear a size large, I went with an XL based on the fit advice and it was the perfect choice. This suit does run a bit small, so ordering a size up is definitely the way to go.
The slim fit is flattering and modern without being restrictive, and the rich brown color adds a unique and stylish touch to any occasion. The material feels high-quality, and the overall craftsmanship is excellent. If you're looking for a sharp, well-fitting suit, this one is a fantastic option—just be mindful of the sizing!

Good Decision !
Size: Large, Color: Dark Black, Size: Large, Color: Dark Black
Upon receiving the suit we were definitely skeptical because certain materials don't match the pictures. But Baby when we say this one came and showed up. It was great material , not cheap feeling if you get what Im saying. The pants, jacket and vest all came as it said it would. Nothing was missing! It came pressed and very wrinkle free so it was taking care of prior to shipping out. We got a Large for my son because of course he wanted a slimmer fit. But it did work out. He had enough room to comfortably be able to move. And for it truly was a steal for how much it costed. This literally felt like it was suppose to cost a few hundred , but it was so affordable.

"Showstopper Suit That Turned Heads All Night!”
Size: Medium, Color: Violet Purple, Size: Medium, Color: Violet Purple
I absolutely love this suit. We bought it specifically to match my son's girlfriend's prom dress, and it could not have been a more perfect choice. After she picked out her gown, I spent the entire Sunday searching for a suit that would complement it, and when I saw this one, I knew it was the one. The colors, the pattern, the style—it all came together perfectly.
When prom day came, my son looked so confident, handsome, and proud. He and his date looked stunning together, like they coordinated their outfits down to the smallest detail. You could tell they were a couple just by the way they complemented each other. He received nonstop compliments, not only at the prom send-off but even later that night when we went to Texas Roadhouse. People were turning their heads and praising the look. It was truly a moment.
This was hands down one of the best purchases I have ever made on Amazon. I do not usually write reviews, but this suit deserves the recognition. It was sleek, bold, well-fitted, and absolutely top tier. If you're considering this suit, do it. It is a total showstopper.
