Atari Legend is the number 1 Atari ST resource on the net!
Atari Legend is a living and breathing webproject, designed by sceners. We like to involve as many
people as possible to make it fresh and up to date.
Currently you'll find the most complete library of ST games on the net, with info on the people
involved in its creation, reviews, screenshots and much more! You'll be amazed how many rare
and previously undiscovered games we have gathered together! Other sections will be available in
the future as well, so stay tuned!
Make sure to drop a line at Atari-Forum
if you have questions or comments, or just want to talk about the good old days!

| New game from the coders of PicrossST |
May 15, 2009 |
The Blind Labyrinth is a new release for your Atari machines. It's by the same team who coded last year's surprise hit, PicrossST.
Based on an old TV series only shown in Belgium in the 1980's, the maze is displayed before your eyes and you have to memorise it. The maze is then erased from the screen and you have to escape. Sounds easy? Well, that's when the computer throws a bad guy into the mix. They will try to track you down as you escape!
Coding by Shadow272, JB-Fou & Cooper. Graphics are by Mister DID with chip-music by DMA-SC & Shadow272.
What are you waiting for? Download and enjoy this new release!

| We're back .. kind of |
March 2, 2009 |
Our initial thanks must go to Linkovitch (of the Jagfest BBS) for being our new host.
We also need to thank Mark Durban (our old host) for doing his best to get our data back from the hosting company who were moaning about us in the first place :) We got there in the end with some help from Linkovitch and his array of industry contacts :)
What's not working - ahem, quite a few things unfortunately. Whilst most of the back-end stuff seems to be working, there are several front-end bits that aren't :( We're getting there but, as we've all got full time jobs and other hobbies, it will take some time to get everything 100% fixed and tickety-boo.
Whilst we've been "offline", there are two other database sites out there and we hope to be able to work with both of them.
Guardians of the PaST is run by a fellow AL-member, Goldrunner (him of GamebaseST) Xperimental, Snaptari, X3peri_MENTaL, Marakatti and Ijor (another good friend of Atari Legend).
AtariMania is being run & looked after by Marakatti (yes, he's got fingers in both pies!), Trooper and Franck.
Both sites look good so far and I hope to be able to supply them with some scans for their specialist subjects :)

An email has been received from the organisers and this year's Eurocon / Retro-Borse (combined event) will be held on the weekend of 10th - 12th October 2008 in Karlsruhe, Germany.
From the email:
quote:
Here are the first details. More info later on www.eurocon.info.
* As with every Eurocon the last 9 years you can expect a weekend filled with fun, gaming, talking, trading, party, meeting of old and new friends and much more.
* The fee for the Eurocon will be 60€ per person.
Included are the participation, coffee/water, snacks, entrance to the RetroGames e.V. (www.retrogames.info), free entrance to the exhibitions of the ZKM, a guided tour to the exhibitions “YouSer” and “World of Games” on Sunday morning, one table (optional) at the Retro-Börse, transport to/from RetroGames and a lot more surprises
I'll be going most definitely - and hoping to find stuff to buy this time. Hope to see more Atarian's at the event too. Don't know about my mate and his JagVR helmet but if he's got it working, I daresay he'll be taking it too. See you there!

| PicrossST now available |
May 1, 2008 |
Picross ST has been released.
They (the authors/designers/graphic artists) would like any feedback on this first 'proper' release so let them know if you find any errors.
There wasn't time to add my "flash the red border/make a noise' if you make a mistake but there's always v1.1!

| In the mid 80's Atari was approached by a company called Nintendo. They asked if Atari was interested in distributing their new 8 bit system. At that time, Jack Tramiel was head of the Atari company. He declined the offer, saying Atari wanted to stop releasing consoles and focus on personal computers instead! So in the end, Nintendo had to distribute the consoles themselves ... In just a few months, they wiped Atari from the throne! |
