Atari 50th Anniversary Collection 

 

I am extremely thankful I had the money to purchase a copy of the Atari 50th Anniversary Collection on the Xbox Series X. This compilation contains over one hundred video games. There are video games that were on the Arcade, Atari 2600, Atari 5200, Atari 7800, Lynx, Jaguar, Atari 800, and Remastered video games. There are some previously unreleased video games on Atari 50th Anniversary Collection.

Atari 50th Anniversary Collection does not stop with all of those video games though. Atari 50th Anniversary Collection also contains history of Atari, its games, and systems. There are pictures of systems, and videos with people talking about the mistakes made in the past. There are interesting tidbits like why the Atari Jaguar wound up dying. I was really fascinated about what went wrong for the Atari 5200.

I had a blast live streaming Atari 50th Anniversary Collection on our Rumble channel. I gave my opinions as a consumer. Atari kept releasing the same games for every single system. I did not want to play Asteroids on the Atari 2600, Atari 5200, and Atari 7800 when I was a kid. I had also played it in the arcades. So when Atari was like buy a new system and play the same games they lost me. Now it is interesting to go back and play the different versions of these games.

The issues families can have with Atari 50th Anniversary Collection are violence, blood, lack of attire, enticement to lust, false gods, sexual content, bad language, drugs, and more. Some games control better than others in Atari 50th Anniversary Collection. There are some games that made little sense to me like that Adventure II. I figured some games out and others were still a mystery to me.

I got quite a few hours of game play out of Atari 50th Anniversary Collection. There are some treasures in here like Atari Karts. Cartridges for many of the Atari Jaguar games included on the Atari 50th Anniversary Collection disc are extremely expensive. Atari 50th Anniversary Collection is a much more cost effective way of playing those games. Plus it is a pain to video capture on the Atari Jaguar. The Atari Lynx games are quite the treat in my humble opinion.
