Scott Steinberg, who writes for everyone about anything gaming, shot me a note recently to point out this his new book on video game marketing is hitting soon and that he's giving away free copies for a limited time.

Video Game Marketing & PR: Vol. 1 is meant to tip off marketing types about making sure their game tops the charts, makes the news and gets good reviews... that's a bit scary: marketing and PR making games review higher?

Available May 15 at all major retailers including Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble, this volume, the first of its kind, offers over 200 pages of in-depth commentary, expert advice, CEO-level insight, proven tips, step-by-step how to's and interviews with the industry's biggest names designed to offer exciting new perspectives into the business for everyone from newcomers to experienced vets. Covering all topics from PC to console, casual, mobile, massively-multiplayer, online and independent games, the volume's a natural fit for anyone with a vested or even passing interest in the interactive entertainment space.

The book also includes a forward by Trip "I helped found EA" Hawkins. Hit the link for details on the free. Brian Crecente
