Atari Anthology will offer you 85 of the best retro Atari games that you will probably ever find in one compilation. The games are straight ports from the originals you probably still have memories of. Atari Anthology includes a remarkable array of game categories, including action, adventure, sporting, puzzle, and space. Atari seem like they have tried to get a great variety of games onto the disc, and some titles appearing are quite rare.
While the games found on Atari Anthology lack the impressive visuals, high-quality sound and other features that console games can offer us today, Atari Anthology nostalgic appeal will remind us why these games were so popular in the first place, which just happens to be their addictive gameplay. “Old school” gamers who can remember playing these games in the past will probably get a kick out of playing their old favorites again and the game is guaranteed to be retailed at a budget price.
We have come a long way haven't we
Like most retrospective games, Atari Anthology marketing strategy will be directly aimed at those who have played the games in the past. Still if you haven’t experienced any of Atari’s classics before then Atari Anthology will offer you the chance to play the games that opted for challenging gameplay over fancy graphics.
Atari Anthology looks like it will be a game that will deliver retro gaming at it’s finest. Scheduled for a November release for both the Xbox and the Playstation 2, Atari Anthology won’t appeal to everyone but looks like a game that should be enjoyed by “old school” gaming purists, or those willing the give a try to some of the most classics games in history.
