Led by Eugene Jarvis, an acclaimed game designer in his own right, along with Mark Turmell and Ed Boon, the studio dominated the market with hit after hit.

Midway affected the culture — not just of gaming, but of the public consciousness as a whole. Featuring interviews with the team behind some of Midway Games’ biggest hits, along with games industry personalities, Insert Coin is the definitive look at one of the most important contributors to gaming history.
