This excerpt is from Jamie Lendino’s Breakout: How Atari 8-Bit Computers Defined a Generation, an amazing book that details with an obsessive’s eye the rise and fall of Atari 8-bit computers. While only someone who ran a BBS on an Atari 800XL can truly love the later parts of this book, everyone — from casual gamer to hardcore programmer — can appreciate the care Lendino took in bringing back some of the best games and gaming platforms of his youth. In this chapter, he looks through a few of his favorite Atari games and brings the memories flooding back of long weekends spent twirling joysticks in the rising dawn of computer gaming. |
