pacman000 #12126 Posted August 6, 2018 I'm fairly sure the sound FX would've come from a library, which probably has an agreement with Atari Corp or Atari Inc on file. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

toiletunes #12132 Posted August 7, 2018 Talent is secondary. If you want to do music, do it! Someone will like it and someone else won't, but that's the case no matter what. Have a good time with it, that's the key. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

toiletunes #12134 Posted August 7, 2018 I've been getting into Clown Core recently. Back on tacopic, the AVGN Ghostbusters 2016 non-review makes several parallel points: It doesn't look good, and they're using the name to cash in on nostalgia, the time for a sequel (or new console) has come and gone.

racerx #12136 Posted August 8, 2018 Tacos, chicken, fledgling music careers, and associated snark aside, it's too bad there's no real news or updates to talk about. As ridiculous as the whole affair is, it'd still be interesting to follow the (attempted) development. As we approach the 2 month mark (!) since Atari's last VCS Facebook post, I almost wish I'd backed a joystick just to follow the Indiegogo comments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can assure you that I have not given one penny to this fabulous campaign. According to some of the backers, something big could be right around the corner! Though to me, it seems far more likely that Fred's Brain, Arzt's Heart, and Moak's Beard used up all their great ideas prior to the campaign launch. "It's a BOX! For ATARI!!" Don't forget Tin Giant as a bottomless well of wisdom and news.This is the most exciting part of the project! Where everything is pure potential, and there's nothing real to disappoint anyone yet. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carlsson #12142 Posted August 9, 2018 Fred's Brain, Arzt's Heart, and Moak's Beard Is that some sort of Wizard of Oz reference? I recognize the scarecrow lamenting his lack of a brain, the tinman lacking a heart and the lion lacking courage - does growing a beard give you courage? In that case, simply follow the yellow brick road and eventually it might lead to finding an Atari VCS, or at least a wicked witch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In that case, simply follow the yellow brick road and eventually it might lead to finding an Atari VCS, or at least a wicked witch. It wasn't a retro reference, but it was retro inspired. Holistic ecosystem - no raw edges. Refined silhouette. With a twist. Back and better than ever. Revamped with contemporary Atari style. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flojomojo #12150 Posted August 9, 2018 meanwhile, Atari is hosting old arcade games on their website to play for free! That's neat! Too bad they don't work. Sad trombone. And their social media people seem to have quit. their stock is down and they keep missing that $3M mark on their crowdfunding. At least TinGiant.com is still up! Good old reliable TinGiant.com! Never change, you! 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
