Atari on Steam Vault: 100 games Atari 2600, even in multiplayer

Talk about Atari 2600, for lovers of video games and retrogaming with (more than) a few years on his shoulders, it means reliving probably one of the most carefree stages of childhood, and one of the most important periods for computer games which passed slowly being a chimera confined in arcades to a hobby that you could start to grow even in the home. Atari 2600, marketed in the late 70s of last century, in fact gave the "la" to a market that was particularly flourishing in the years to come, that of the home console that found their consecration with the arrival of the Nintendo NES.

To relive the immortal classics of video game history is newly available on Steam Atari Vault, a collection of 100 games for the Atari 2600 console It starts, of course, as long titles entered the Olympus of games like Asteroids, Centipede, and Missile Command. To quickly clear up doubts, it is emphasized at the same time, that love for retrogaming, in this case, has a price. Atari Atari proposes Vault to 19.99 euro, reduced amount to 16,99 EUR until 31 March. Why to purchase, taking into account that the emulators allow you to play the same titles at no cost? To find an answer you can move on to analyze the extras included in the package.


The first element to be taken into consideration is the support for unreleased multiplayer mode, either locally or online, which undoubtedly introduce additional stimulus to face again the Atari games, comparing their scores with those obtained from other players worldwide. Not lack of support for the Steam Controller and a new user interface that recreates the atmosphere of the original artwork of the covers and cabs. Rounding out the picture of the original soundtracks of the '70s and' 80s.

Evaluate fair and reasonable price of 19,99 / 16,99 euro in relation to what is offered is this always depends on individual retrogaming lover. Those interested in Atari Eval, but does not intend to support the initial outlay, can wait for the inevitable Steam offers that might make in the future, even buying more beneficial. For more information, please refer to the store Steam, while the list of 100 titles can be found in the description that accompanies the official video posted on the YouTube channel of Atari.

For Virgin Orbit, this year has likely been completely turned on its head. The company was aiming for three launches this year, but everything will remain grounded until the cause of the anomaly has been identified and resolved. It’s unclear how long that will take, but likely at least three months. Add this delay to Virgin’s dwindling cash reserves and you have a foundation that’s suddenly much shakier than before. ...
