Atari Vintage Look Collection

I want to share with you today a post written by Chloe, a colleague who works on our Flash Games platform, Pictogame.

"Simple gaming, simple fun and most of all, simple packaging applied to the games of today?

A lot of gamers today miss the sheer simplicity of the Atari 2600 games... and The -Minus World knows it. That's why they take an interesting look at how today's games might have been represented by yesterday's artists with Atari Modern Classics.

Thereby the biggest games of the moment fell into the hands of a 2600-era artist. They've created retro covers in authentic pixels and simple block graphics for Halo 3, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Portal, Resident Evil 5, GTA IV, No More Heroes, COD4, God of War 3, and BioShock. All the biggest games have been represented.

Uncluttered composition and short descriptive text come together to create a simple and vintage game packaging.

You can check out on the joined pictures what today’s game packaging look like with Atari Modern Classics."
