Although the genre has been milked to death, you really gotta try Arkanoid 2. It's even better than its predecessor. The power-ups are a load of fun! This is without a doubt the best break-out game for the Atari ST...But it's also the most difficult! Draw!December 14, 2001 by ST Graveyard
All of this might sound really dull, but what makes this game so amazing is the feeling of speed it creates. Never have a felt this before in a game. The scenery flies by at 50 frames a second! Racing through narrow sections and tunnels makes your heart pump faster. Driving on a hill at 200MPH, without knowing what to expect when you reach the top, is even a bit scary! It's a rush and a real test for your reflexes! December 5, 2001 by Lorenzo
The IA is quite good. Each computer controlled character has his own business to take care of, and each one has his own feelings towards you and the normans, that' s why a good popularity is so important in this game. The combat system, instead, could have been improved; you can only shoot arrows in front of you or fight with your sword, but once you' ve engaged a fight there' s little you can do to control Robin; either kill, get killed or run away as fast as you can...November 27, 2001 by ST Graveyard
Your heart is pounding like hell. It feels as if it's gonna explode within seconds. Sweat is dripping of your face. In the background you hear those annoying sirens. You're completely focussed on the road, as the local cars fly by. You push the pedal to the metal...272 km/h...There, in the distance, is your opponent. You just gotta beat him, or he's gonna take all your money. But those damn cops. You just can't seem to shake them. They're coming closer and closer. Shhhhrrriiiieeekkk...They're trying to push you to the side. More damage inflicted on your precious Lamborghini. And all of a sudden... Bbbbaaaaammm...November 24, 2001 by Lorenzo
Probably one of the most underrated games in history, Cloud Kingdoms was by far my favourite C64 game, and one of the best platform games I've ever seen. The ST version doesn' t look as good as the C64 one, but it' s still very playable and addictive, and it also features a few more levels. Definitely worth a try.
Lately, some great Atari-related books have been released for all of us fanatics. One of those titles is Atari : A Visual History from one of my favorite graphics artists, Darren Doyle. Although this book is not Atari ST related, it covers all there is to know about the Atari 8-bit. Knowing Darren's work I participated on the Kickstarter and boy, ever since the book arrived, I have been hooked. Darren is also responsible for the amazing digital magazines Atari Gamer and Atari ST Gamer. Recently he started a game publishing company called BitmapSoft. Read all about it in this in-depth interview.
