Matt_B Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 She did the soundtrack for River City girls, an anime-style beat 'em up that was popular in retro circles a couple of years back. Now that you mention it, you probably could play Tempest to some of those tracks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82-T/A Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 The above video sounds kind of cool... honestly it really reminds me a lot of 90s / grunge music... it has an air of 16 Stone / Bush, No Doubt, mixed in with some Megadeth. The second song in the YouTube video sounds super 80s... haha... which is cool too. I'll buy whatever it is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tripled79 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 First Missile Command, now Centipede. Two trackball games... Will a trackball peripheral ever see the light of day? How about an official Atari mouse? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Helper Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 There was an Atari branded trackball type controller they were selling at Microcenter for cheapo a while back. Not specifically for the VCS but compatible as a regular controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm fine with that! Looking forward to the new Centipede game, especially if it's leaning more towards the Pac-Man Championship gameplay style. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraffitiTavern Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Is there a CD release by chance? I have the steelbook version of Atari 50 and Vol 1+2 could make the perfect music companion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
