For the past few years, Midway and Namco have been rereleasing old games in their collections. They would throw 6 to 8 early 80’s games on a cd with nothing extra and charge an insane amount of money. Then along came Activision. Activision obviously learned from Midway and Namco’s mistakes. Instead of 6 to 8, you get 45 Atari 2600 games. Want extra features? Ok, how about TV comercials from the 80s and those patches you could earn for their games. But they did not stop there. They added a truely impressive 80’s soundtrack to keep you going. There are also added ways of playing the game. For example, one method overlays clouds over the game. Another has a large rotating cube with the game on each side. These extra ways of playing the game are interesting, but you will mostly just play the games the way they were. Overall, this is what a collection should be like. If you want to relive the classics or are interested in where the video game industry first got its start, you should check this out.
This game has the classic Activision games for the Atari 2600 plus a few non-Activision games, most notably Demon Attack. Most of the games I never owned for the Atari, and most of those games aren’t much fun and I don’t play them except for a couple hidden gems. The controls are a lot easier than the Atari joystick considering we wore out the Atari controllers. The PS2 controller is much more responsive which is nice. It’s nice playing these games in color too. You can unlock old commercials when you achieve certain benchmarks in the games. The game has 80s music on a boom box which you can turn on or off, I keep that off because I want to hear the sounds of the games. The music is good but you won’t have it on much.I definitely recommend this game for anyone that owned activision games on the Atari. If you’re not into retro gaming, this isn’t for you.
great collection of the old games i played as a child
As described
Excellent!!!!! The only thing that would make it better is if I had an Atari joystick to play it with. So glad I purchased this anthology of Activision games.☺☺☺☺☺😀😀😀😀ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ƒðŸ˜ŽðŸ‘✌â˜
I grew up during the first video age and had a Atari 2600 and 5200 as well as a Intellivision. This cart does justice to the classics. They brought back the original games, excellent job!
Item arrived in great condition, no scratches and works perfect.
If you owned an Atari 2600 or VCS in the 80s, you played these games. Activision made Atari games and kicked it up a notch in terms of graphics and game play. Practically the whole Activision library is here, and even a couple of Imagic games like Atlantis and Demon Attack. There’s over 45 games on this disc, including:Chopper CommandCrackpotsFreewayKaboomMegamaniaPitfall 1 & 2Plaque AttackPressure CookerRiver Raid 1 & 2SeaquestSpider FighterStampedeSports:BoxingEnduroFishing DerbyGrand PrixIce HockeySkiingTennisIn addition to the games, there’s also an 80s music soundtrack to take you back in time as well. You can unlock various rewards for high scores (like patches and clips of the original commercials for these games) and play the games in different ways other than the standard one. There’s something for everyone here. Some cute games like Barnstorming, Dolphin, Oink and Sky Jinks. Some games never released on compilations before, like Beamrider, Decathlon, Robot Tank and Space Shuttle. There’s even a game of checkers on here. Hard to believe that games with four bits of memory were once the standard. This collection of games proves that going back in time can be fun. Get this game collection, you’ll love it!
👠You won’t go wrong buying and keeping this one. Great games by activision great value.. How about 2😌
Okay, so I didn’t nessesarily grow up when Atari was popular, but I certainly did grow up with much respect for it. I got my hands on a compilation of Atari 2600 goodness for the PC quite a few years ago, and it opened up a brand new interest of mine. After this, I became fascinated with the system and I started playing more and more of it while everybody was playing Goldeneye and such….Well, years passed and I was about 15 years old, and I decided I needed to know everything from this ancient system. I downloaded an emulator and packs of ROMS to all I didn’t possess including prototypes, and it sort of saddened me to see the neglect of such an awesome thing here.About a year later, I heard of Activision Anthology and I just had to buy it… maybe it was because it contained a never before released Kabobber, in which I had already had the privalege to play, but would have loved to have played it properly. I had played every single one of the games on this compilation, but it was a pain to have to play them on a crummy emulator, so this was nessessary. I was surprised to find so many extra features unique to this release, including the greatest soundtrack to date on the PS2! Everything worth mentioning of the 80’s music scene is found here (well, not really, but its all very good,) and you have an opportunity to unlock various things such as commercials and new gameplay modes by reaching certain scores.I am a unique sort of person. Everything in my room is either date.

First off,I have to say that I grew up in the 80s and I used to play atari all the time,so my review may be a bit biased.For me, this game had so many memories in it that it was a blast!One of the main reasons I got this anthology was because it included the great game Seaquest in it.I used to play that game for hours on end back in the day! Some other great games included on it are,MegaMania,Frostbite, SpiderFighter,LaserBlaster,KeystoneKapers,RoboTank,and of course Pitfall.The 80s soundtrack put in the game made it even better;I mean playing these classics while listening to “Safety Dance”,”Tainted Love” or “Were Not Gonna Take It” is priceless in my opinion.If any of these songs do get on your nerves though( you can only listen to Mexican Radio so many times!) you are given the option to turn the music off.I just wish they would have given the option to only play certain songs while leaving other ones out..Oh well.The only minor complaint I have for this title,is that some of the games included were really,REALLY bad!I mean I remember hating these games when I used to own them as cartridges for the atari 2600.The really bad games include,Dragster(terrible!), Dolphin,TomCat and the “bonus” games Kabobber and Thwoker. However there are enough fun games in here to justify buying it esp. since you can buy this new for pretty cheap. That’s a great dealfor a gamer’s trip down memory lane.In conclusion,any gamer in his/her twentites would love this title.As for the younger genera.

These are the classic games I played as a kid. Although primitive, they were *very* addictive and kept you saying, “Just one more game!”And what a bargain! … Well worth it. Although about half the games are not really worth playing today, there are several must-have classics:Pitfall, Pitfall 2 (like 2D Metroid in a jungle), H.E.R.O., Kaboom, Cosmic Ark, Demon Attack.

If you like the old school games that were a lot of hand eye coordination and not focused on puzzle solving or blood splatter you might want to give this a try. Great fun with games that are enjoyable to play more than once and that you don’t need a cheat guide to understand.

My daughter is 6 years old and loves this game. This was one of only two gifts she asked Santa for this year. She loves the games but really enjoys the 80’s music that goes along with it. If you like the classic arcade games then you’ll like this collection.

This is a very awesome game for all the fans of atari, even if you aren’t a fan, you’ll like this game! Let me tell you that it has all the games from the PS One Activision Classics plus 20 more! Let me just say that you won’t be disappointed!P.S. By the way…all you Pitfall 2 fans will love this game!

Activision released their library of Atari 2600 games many times before but this time they succeeded in capturing the nostalgic 80’s feel that makes this package a great ‘musuem’ for those of us who cut our teeth on the early game systems. As you play through the games you unlock items like classic commercials and the patches Activision used to give away. You’ll also unlock ‘filters’ that range from annoying to nausea inducing. As you try to unlock more goodies you may find yourself actually finding some depth to these seemingly simplistic games. In this way, Activision has actually made a game I would’ve played for 5 minutes into an obsession to achieve a higher score to open a commercial. If that’s not enought, they also have ten 80’s songs playing in the backround (which can be turned off if you get tired of hearing Safety Dance) and the actual 3-D box and cartridge shots that you can examine (although a better zoom would’ve been nice). If you had any enjoyment with these Activision classics back in the day or enjoy 80’s nostalgia then this is definately worth the price of admission.

All the classic games in here are a blast to play again even in over a decade. Pick this one up if you’re an old school of the 80’s fan collector. Plus, the disk has tons of unlockable stuff, it even has 80’s retro music, how cool is that? Though, I think it should have more 80’s songs, but good enough.A must buy. You’ll enjoy it.

Back in the 80’s almost everyone owned the Atari 2600/VCS.Atari Anthology covers 85 games (18) arcade) and it’s fantastic! However,just like the 80’s Activision Anthology just rocks it harder! Activision was the first “third party publisher” for the Atari.Made up of former Atari programmers they made the 2600/VCS do things previously thought impossible.Better graphics,more colors,and intense action that to this day tests any gamers skill to the limit! Not only do you get 45 games but you get an 80’s soundtrack! Cool extras like virtual patch’s you can earn by hitting a certain score.All the greats are here from the groundbreaking Pitfall (Pitfall2 as well) Laser Blast,River Raid (River Raid 2) Starmaster and Kaboom to name a few.There are also a few classics not made by Activision as well. Demon Attack and atlantis from Imagic are here! Demon Attack being by far one of the best Invaders/galaxian type games ever produced IMO. Games thought impossible to make work on the 2600 like Space Shuttle,Tomcat the f-14 simulator are amazing.Games that atari made are one upped by Activison like Robot Tank (Battlezone),Spiderfighter/Megamania/Demon Attack (invaders/galaxian/Phoniex)Starmaster (star Raiders almost unplayable on Atari anthology due to a wierd controller sceme)Beamrider (Tempest) Enduro (Pole Position) and many more. They even made the paddle controls work (better but not perfect) for Kaboom! Even in the new century Activision beats Atari! This is the better anthology b.
