MeriStation
The overwhelming amount of information in every conceivable format creates a quality standard to be demanded of future compilations.
Indispensable for what it means to justify and preserve the history of video games.
The total involvement, care and effort to live up to the legend is appreciated.
Full of surprises, like games created for the occasion (Swordquest: Airworld!) and the occasional secret that is pure gold.
It loses titles compared to the previous compilation, although in many cases it was the same game on different Atari platforms.
touch interaction on Switch and online sorting have also fallen through.

AusGamers
The interactive history presentation adds so much context to the collection of over 90 Atari games
Covers arcade games, consoles, and even the ill-fated 64-bit Jaguar from the 1990s
Modern remixes of some classics are a great inclusion
Great use of bite-sized interview footage and chock full of behind-the-scenes goodness
Misses out on some playable third-party titles to fill out the history of some of the hardware
Most games from the 1970s and early 1980s have not aged well at all

Pizza Fria
Lots of content to explore on interactive timelines.
Several improvements and implementations in games.
6 exclusive games made for the collection.
the lack of localization in Portuguese Brazil disrupts the experience too much.

VideoChums
Superb collection of games that spans arcade, console, computer, and handheld releases
Top-notch assortment of museum content
New games are mostly great fun
Although an excellent selection of games, it's by no means a definitive collection
I wish there were online leaderboards

Extraordinary documentation and preservation work
More than a hundred games
The reinterpretations created by Digital Eclipse are brilliant.

the absence of unforgettable classics linked in one way or another to the history of Atari is felt.

Nintendo Life
A brilliantly executed interface, smooth, concise and conjuring the appropriate nostalgic notes
Teeming with tidbits, trivia, video interviews and general materials to pique the interest of gamers old and young
Over a hundred games, neatly and efficiently presented, across decades of different formats
Plenty of missing gems that are sorely missed, some with good excuses, others not so much
The older Atari output is, by today?s standards, fairly antiquated, and will take serious effort for newcomers to click with

A very interesting concept
The artwork and old clips are wonderful
Some classic games are still fun to play today
The button layout caused too many accidental resets.
The game variation options needed to be on the game menu screen
There are quite a few games that don?t hold up so well
