Textbooks? Seriously, I finished a BSc Computer Science degree then did MSc in Games Engineering and never had a single textbook. Lecturers would hand the notes out(but they were also available online as pdfs), that was all that was needed.

Edit: obviously there were books which were "recommended reading" but very few people bought them, they were all in the library anyway if someone needed one. I think you can see the list if you click on "modules" and then click on a specific one, it tells you the structure of the module and recommended reading.
