It’s pretty interesting to find out a bit about Atari’s history as someone who didn’t grow up during their era. Unfortunately I was letdown by how few interviews there were with the developers and founders of the company. It makes up about 90 minutes of viewing. There are also short paragraphs giving a little detail into select games and systems. Past the 2600, the quality and frequency of information drops significantly.

There’s something about this collection that felt like a puff piece. The interviews with the current ceo felt gross (especially the one with the founder Nolan Bushnell). It feels like they glossed over a lot of the negative aspects of Atari’s management. It’s really a giant collection of games with a barebones overview of how it was actually run. I will say it’s pretty cool that they made some new games based on past hits.
