Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration

Great collection. Over 100 playable games with some new games just for this set. Great information and interesting information on the beginning of the video game industry covering home consoles, arcade machines and even computers. What makes this collection so incredible is that it also contains games from the Atari Lynx and Jaguar! I can't recommend this enough. It's out on all current systems and is very enjoyable. I also recommend the add on packs too. Best downloadable content since Rock Band.

Great game fun to play

Great game, or should that be great games. You get a nice history lesson for those retro gamers that are just discovering these games and consoles. As I was lucky to grow up with these machines this was a great buy. There are videos and pictures to learn about Atari with a big selection of games, some I can remember playing on my friends console and some new to me. For all us that want to relive these memories and those that want to experience these old era games for the first time then this is a must buy

Questa collezione include una lezione interattiva che ripercorre tutta la storia di Atari dagli anni 70 in poi, ma ovviamente la gente la prenderà per vedere i giochi vintage che hanno fatto la storia di questo marchio. Tuttavia (suppongo per una questione di diritti) non sono inclusi giochi che hanno in effetti fatto la storia di Atari, cito solo Space Invaders per dirne uno che era addirittura incluso con la console. I giochi non mancano, ce ne sono tanti e anche belli (Missile Command, Centipede..) ma scordatevi i classici di Activision, Namco etc quindi niente Pacman per esempio. Vale il prezzo? Secondo me no, a meno che in futuro non sia possibile comprare (a poco) dei DLC che includano altri giochi.

Great retro Atari compilation for the XBox. It covers a lot of bases with arcade titles, VCS games, 5200 games, the 8 bit computer line, 7800 games, Lynx, ST and Jaguar games. Lots of extras in the package too.

This is a very well made documentary plus lots of playable games developed by Atrai over the last 50 years. I have read some are dissapointed that it does not include Space Invaders, Pacman and Defender which were all available on the 2600 but they were licenced from other developers like Midway, Namco and Wiliams so they are not true Atari games. The presentation and layout on-screen is superb and the games are the original Arcade, 2600, 5200, 7800, Computer and Jaguar Atari products plus a few updated versions of classics like Tempest and Asteroids. A must for all Atari fans.
