Lol, omg.... That's the guy that apparently replied to a comment I left under Atari's latest post. I wasn't really trying to attack Atari, but I laid the law down and said I wasn't designing a game for their console anymore. I never got to read his response to me because apparently it was removed before I saw the notification. LOL! xD Edited October 5, 2019 by Lodmot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBeefy Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 We should be nice to them. It is rough being dragged through misinformation and for illustrative purposes posts. I'm sure if there were actual good regular updates they would be more positive and actually talk about, well Atari. New or old. But nope, instead they are negative and instead of be honest about the situation. This is leading them to be more negative and focus on anyone who doesn't see everything as 100% rosey. This is leading them to change their locus of control. They are blaming others/us for the crappy way of how they've been treated by Atari. They don't want to admit that they backed this campaign. That their faith in Atari so far has got them nothing. They are triggered by the smallest of things (see Karl over a simple Star Wars comment). Mention Star Wars 1983 this happens... Say you don't like how there are no games or that 100 old games that costs 10 cents each ($9.99) isn't enough. This is how they react. Say something even a tiny bit critical and you are called gay in a mocking way. (That one owns share in Atari BTW hoping the great Atari will rise again). Mocking someone over sexual orientation isn't enough to get banned by Atari, but asking about games is. Its kind of sad. Wish I could send them a taco. Happy National Taco day!

He apparently does that stuff to make the others pigeons happy. His admirer, Miguel praised him for his act of bravery and later posted that he didn't have the guts to do it.

That ballzerk game looks pretty good from the 2 videos I watched! The music in the game is well done too. The 2600 games (Bb I assume?) don't look to be as good as your IOS effort. If you are showing others in hope of getting them interested in your work I'd stick to showing off Ballzerk and not mention anything on the 2600 until you have something of the same quality of gameplay as that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the feedback dude! :3 Yeah, I agree that my Atari 2600 games are probably not the best to showcase. I really just felt like I needed content for the website, and that's what I had. Lol.

This must be Atari VCS' philosophy. Since they have no quality they have no games announced. Yes yes I know there's Vault but I can buy that for $9.99 on my PC. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tickled_Pink Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Hmmm ... a photo of a prototype board appears to have been released. Looks like it uses a Ryzen R1000 APU. It's more powerful than a GameCube. That's good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one problem-- the GameCube apparently has more RAM xD That is unless of course the RAM chips are on the back...
