Atari celebrates its 50th anniversary, and with it, the spark that launched the modern video game industry.

The result of their efforts was Atari, one of the most recognizable and enduring entertainment and pop culture brands in the world.



Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration is an interactive journey through 50 years of video games through interviews with designers, developers and industry leaders, documentary footage, product design documents and, of course, over 100 playable games.

At the heart of the 50th Anniversary Collection is a curated list of over 100 games spanning seven different hardware platforms - a true emulation feat by the team at Digital Eclipse.



Behind every game are the stories of Atari, what went on inside the company, what went into making the games and the hardware they ran on... told by the people who were there.
