Classic Game Room HD – ATARI ANTHOLOGY for Xbox review

by xboxre

Classic Game Room HD reviews ATARI ANTHOLOGY for Xbox, which also works on the Xbox 360 video game console. This amazing collection has dozens of Atari 2600 classic video games, as well as a number of arcade classics, all on one disc like Missile Command, Yars’ Revenge, Swordquest Waterworld and Space War! The games play out in fabulous 1080i HDTV graphics and look better than they did on the Atari 2600 (although in many cases that may not be a good thing, but this is emulation and these are emulated Atari 2600 games and they still rock!) Instead of using the standard Atari 2600 single button, single joystick controller you play all of these Atari and arcade hits using your Xbox or Xbox 360 controller. Atari Anthology is also available for the Playstation 2 PS2 video game system although CGRHD has not reviewed that version. We do however like the Atari Anthology disc for Xbox and played it with our 360 and give it two hearty beers up. Classic Game Room is your home for the best classic video game reviews anywhere in the known universe, or univereses that you don’t know, understand or could possibly fathom. A bunch of angels in some far of heaven meets disco wonderland universe coul make a video game review show with naked girls, beer drinking and talking frogs and it would still suck compared to Classic Game Room (we made that up, talking frogs would be awesome!)

Too bad Ms. Pacman and Burgertime weren’t there in Atari Anthology.

ST0PM0SS September 2, 2010 at 4:19 am

its not the same with the xbox controller.

YoshiUltimate September 2, 2010 at 4:57 am

@Tryzon
Sorry, I was only joking.

Tryzon September 2, 2010 at 5:50 am

This collection is outstanding! The paddle problem is annoying, but Battlezone and Yars’ Revenge are worth the entry fee!

Tryzon September 2, 2010 at 6:44 am

@YoshiUltimate Well since he often gets large bunches of 2600 games in one go to save on postage, it’s likely he would have ended up with a few copies of that game whether he wanted to or not. Besides, E.T. is a piece of history, so a collector might want it based on that.

YoshiUltimate September 2, 2010 at 8:16 am

What, so if he recommends anything with an Atari logo, he recommends E.T for the 2600?

Snotnarok September 2, 2010 at 9:02 am

Comedy: A single page scan of an atari manual is larger than an atari game itself, maybe several atari games infact.

JESSIEEDSELL21 September 2, 2010 at 9:53 am

@DestinyHeroFlamer only if your playing the xbox game on the 360 othewise no

blackdeath1000 September 2, 2010 at 10:47 am

Wolfman9999 September 2, 2010 at 11:44 am

Man my first video game console Atari 2600 but I buy for PS2. Good stuff on Atari games from past ah good times.

DestinyHeroFlamer September 2, 2010 at 12:33 pm

(obviously I don’t have an Xbox 360), but can you use a 360 controller on a standard Xbox game?

SchaufelPKT September 2, 2010 at 1:03 pm

You ought to review the Atari Flashback 2. I have one, and since my 2600 was lost years ago :-( it was a really cost effective way to play 2600 games in their native format. I’d let you borrow it to review it, but I can’t part with missile command for that long! Still, get one and review it!

acidsyringe69 September 2, 2010 at 1:50 pm

this game plays on the 360 but midway arcade treasures 2 doesnt? why????????!!!!!!!!!!

yanibo99 September 2, 2010 at 2:43 pm

only tal+cup bean420man!!!!!!

Tryzon September 2, 2010 at 2:48 pm

I’d imagine that using an original Xbox controller would work better for this collection than a 360 controller, mainly because the original one has a considerably better D-pad. The 360 controller has many advantages over the original, but it’s not famed for having a stellar D-pad.

Tryzon September 2, 2010 at 3:04 pm

I want this very badly indeed. Must get a copy.

cam5478 September 2, 2010 at 3:33 pm

RustySting September 2, 2010 at 11:16 pm

@Commanderjek We are fighting mate because I left a comment saying PS3 and Xbox 360 FTW! And he said “PS3 sucks giant penis.” Why would somebody put that when I was being nice about both consoles? He started it by being so immature and nerdy.

RustySting September 3, 2010 at 12:05 am

@LuckyAchievemenTs Dude the people I know if you even TRIED to beat me up you would get jumped by about 100 17 year olds you silly faggot. I talk like Harry Potter? No mate I’m just educated, and wtf Freshman? In the UK I leave school next year so stfu? Yeah, I’m a virgin but i’m 15, you are and you’re 17 ffs! So you’re obviously a little faggot nerd and just because you’re older than me by 2 years doesn’t mean you’d beat me up fucking yank.

causeimawesomelikeda September 3, 2010 at 3:03 am

To the reviewer, If your still looking for a way to transfer your things, Amazon had transfer cables for 10 dollars (And they came out when the 120gb hardrive came out ), you can usually get one for really cheap there. Hope I helped :)
