Tifany Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Hey all! If this has been asked before, i sincerly apologize... me n the search function dont always see eye to eye. Anyhoose... is there one source for atari 8-bit software and game reviews? And maybe manuals? I know of several places to get the roms or whatever, but sometimes Id like to have a review or at least as short explanation of the game or program before i try to figure the sucker out. Any one have any ideas? Thanks! Tifany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classics Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Try atarimania.com in the 8-bit section, most of the games have very nice documentation scans and some have reviews. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tifany Posted May 1, 2006 Author Share Posted May 1, 2006 (edited) Thanks! thats a good start for sure! I was hoping for something with a bit more detail, but thats most certainly better than nothing! Very cool! Ok, looking a bit deeper into the site... looks like a lot of stuff has very detailed reviews, but a lot doesnt. whats there is pretty darn good though!

a8isa1 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 (edited) WWW.Atariarchives.org has a lot of the old Atari related magazines and books online. You can do a search for game reviews. Though, the main benefit of the site is access to all the technical articles (IMO). [edit] make that "old books and compendiums of SOME old magazines" - Steve Sheppard Edited May 1, 2006 by a8isa1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tifany Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 Atari acrhives is a great site! been there lots of times to refresh my memory and just to read the old books and stuff :-) Im glad they went through all that trouble for us, especially since all my A8 books and software got destroyed in a flood in my parent basement about 10 years ago. Nice to know this stuff isnt lost forever! Thanks! Tifany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
