Atari Arcade Hits is a compilation of six classic arcade games from the golden ages of Atari, reprogrammed to play in Windows computers. The package not only includes the games with changeable operator options in their original style and enhanced style, but also the Atari Archives, with media content that goes from flyer scans to advert videos, desktop themes based on the games offered in each package and online high score charts. Volume 1 includes Asteroids, Super Breakout, Centipede, Pong, Tempest and Missile Command. All games can be accessed from a taskbar button, and game progress is saved as soon as window is closed.

Six Atari Arcade classics can now be played on your PC in Atari Arcade Hits: Volume 1 CD-ROM Game. Choose from Asteroids, Centipede, Missile Command, Pong, Super Breakout, or Tempest, each shown on the screen the way they looked when you first stood in front of them in an Arcade and emulated with minute details such as Asteroids' inability to show three initials in the tenth spot on the high scores list. Players can go into the configure box and modify the way each game is played. There are options for enhanced graphics, a "trippy mode" for Asteroids, and the ability to tweak difficulty levels, among others. There are even desktop themes to choose from which will replace the wallpaper, screensaver, icons, and sounds in your PC with ones related to your favorite Atari game. Each game is playable with a joystick, mouse, or keyboard and the developers focused on emulating the feel of the trackball in games like Centipede and Missile Command. The same is true of the knob used to play Tempest, Pong, and Super Breakout. Players with access to the web can go to the official Atari web site and enter their high scores into the company's server. Who's the best Tempest player in the United States? You can find out there. Finally, there's also an Atari archives section full of interviews with founder Nolan Bushnell and pictures from the early days of the company's success both in the Arcades and in the home with the Atari 2600.

COMPATIBILITY: Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.  Many "older" games can be run on newer computers/operating systems via emulators or mode selection (see the internet on how to do this).
