Atari Anniversary Advance
Release Date: March 25, 2002
A set of six classic Atari handicrafts. This compilation contains the following items: Asteroids, Battlezone, Centipede, Missile Command, Super Breakout and Tempest.
Atari Anniversary Advance is, of course, Atari's classic game set, designed for GameBoy Advance console owners. It is worth mentioning here that this is not the first attempt to prepare a similar complication. PlayStation 2 and Xbox owners have already played Atari Anthology. The owners of Nintendo DS had the opportunity to play Retro Atari Classics. It is with this second product that Atari Anniversary Advance has the most common elements, not only because of the release of the set on a portable console model, but also because of the conclusion of very similar games. Here we are dealing with the greatest hits of Atari, created at the turn of the 70's and 80's of the XX century. The Digital Eclipse studio is responsible for the preparation of this compilation. The studio also created Monster Force or Rayman Advance on GBA.
This set consists of six games, which in most cases were moved in an unchanged form. In addition, some of the games offer a multiplayer for two people, played on a common console (alternately - hot seat). The authors also took care of a relatively interesting quiz, associated, of course, with the Atari classics. The set includes the following items:
Asteroids - Absolute classic. Due to the fact that the game was created in the 70's, graphics are not only two-dimensional, but also two-color. We move on a small boat, eliminating further asteroids.
Battlezone - This product stood out above all with its original graphic design, but similar to the style presented by Asteroids. We control the tank and our task is to eliminate enemies.
Centipede - A game similar in many ways to another classic - Space Invaders. We eliminate insects appearing on the screen.
Missile Command - One of the most popular shooters of the 1980s. We deal with the destruction of rockets flying towards the surface of the planet.
Super Breakout - Improved version of the classic Arkanoid. The game was distinguished by a few new play modes and improved graphics.
Tempest - Another production, which at the time of its premiere was distinguished by its original graphic design. We move inside a very unusual structure, trying to destroy enemy units.
