I was browsing the web a few days ago and while looking at some websites about the history of video-games (i’ll post them up soon), I had the surge to look up information on Atari.
I never owned or seen an Atari before (shame), my first console was the first version of the Gameboy (the huge one with black and white screen), and next came the SNES or Super Nintendo, those were some good times.
So, while browsing through some memorobilia I stumbled into some old Atari catalogs and I was stunned because it looked so unique and original, each game artwork seemed to perfectly capture the game universe and atmosfere (like Casino or Defender for example).
I wish some of today’s games would look back at these examples and took more pride into making games, I think maybe we would have more original or better quality games.
