What our customer's say!

"Jewel Case", The games are hard to play on the computer. They are not what I remember them to be when Atari was out. If I had known how hard they were to play, I would not have bought them.

"A fun way to pass the time.", I got this as a b-day/Christmas gift. I usually play for less than a hour at a time, but oh, what fun! There are only 6 games here--Asteroids, Centipede, Pong, Missile Command, Super Breakout, and Tempest--and they play in both retro and enhanced versions. And once installed, you don't need the CD to play it, because it stays on your hard drive! I just wish it had more games!

AN OBSERVATION OF NOTE: In Asteroids and Centipede, sometimes when the UFO's or Spider appear, the sound suddenly gets twice as loud, and doesn't stop until either you shoot the thing or it fades of screen. If I vaguely remember right (It's been what, uh, 20-25 years?!!), I think this unintentional error was in the original stand-up arcade machines themselves, and yet it's "captured" here on this CD! (Again, I assume unintentional.) Don't let this "effect" throw you off. You may want to turn down the volume when playing these two games, especially if you're sensitive to such changes in sound. Have fun!


"Atari Arcade Hits Vol.1", Well this game is really good. I'm getting it soon and my friend has it.

Sound Quality - 4 This game doesn't really have sound but the way the beeps sound it feels like you're in a 90's arcade.

Graphics - 4.5 The graphics are actually really good for arcade games. ( -.5 for centipede)

Fun - 5.5 Well, 5.5 is all you have to say.

Challenging - 4 These games are highly challenging. NOTE: I got all the way to Level 10 on Centipede.

Pros:
Still Fun To Play
Suprisingly Good Graphics

Cons:
Using The Keyboard Peforms Choppy Gameplay
Not Enough Games On CD

GO BUY IT TODAY!

I hope this helped.

"Atari Arcade Hits 1", Progam may work well using keyboard, but I prefer to use the joystick, and game plays very choppy.

"Arcade Hits 1", When I first played the games on this CD-ROM, I thought I had travelled through a time warp back into the arcades of the early 80's! It's great to be able to play your favorite arcade games that you once played years ago (I think I'm telling my age!). I got lots of enjoyment out of it.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"Buy This", This is the best arcade game pack I have ever bought. Great price and hours of fun. I recomend tempest. However they are all great.

"Great value on price. You get what you pay for.", Great Value on item price wise, but you get what you pay for. This item contains several of the original games from Atari 2600. They are nothing compared to recent revised versions of various classics. I wouldn't pay more than 12 dollars for this item.

"Can I have another quarter? Can I have another quarter?", If, after you sink into these 6 classic Atari arcade games, you start to smell pizza or hear other voices, don't panic. It's just your mind bringing back memories of when you first played them. THAT'S how good these recreations are.

Compared to today's 3D arcade first-person shooters, these games might seem primitive but they can claim something that modern games can't: anyone and everyone played them. The controls were simple, usually consisting of a single knob or joystick and a couple buttons. You dropped in a quarter and you played.

When you went to the bowling alley or pizza parlor, you saw senior citizens standing shoulder to shoulder with teens at the PONG game. A father and daughter might be huddled in front of Tempest. A child barely tall enough to reach the trackball and buttons on Missile Command has already finished 12 levels. A grandmother has just been introduced to Asteroids and now, there's no tearing her away. A small crowd is gathering around the Super Breakout game because someone has just cleared a third wall of bricks on the first ball. And a weekend lawn warrior is exacting revenge on his leaf-munching adversaries in Centipede.

Those games live again, as does a feeling for what it was like to have lived back then, in Atari Arcade Hits. In addition to the exact recreations of 6 of Atari's landmark arcade games, the CD ROM includes a wealth of extra material including photos, promotional materials and over a half hour of Atari founder Nolan Bushnell reminiscing about the times. That segment was actually taped at the former Andy Capp's Saloon where the world was introduced to the first coin-operated PONG.

NOTE: Games requiring a knob or "paddle" controller are best played with a good quality trackball like the Logitech Marble Mouse Trackball, which I've reviewed elsewhere on Amazon.com

"Great Games.", This has 6 classic games: Asteroids, Centipede, Missile Command, Tempest, Super Breakout, and Pong. I especially enjoyed pong. This is a great value, since versions of each of the games are sold by themselves for $20.
