Old School

Atari to Reissue Scores of Old Games

By ANTHONY BREZNICAN, AP Entertainment Writer

LOS ANGELES - Atari wants to take you back in time, and to get there, you can ride a "Centipede" or an "Asteroid," or bounce back and forth between the pixilated paddles of "Pong."

The video game company told The Associated Press on Tuesday it plans to reissue scores of its classic titles from yesteryear on a single disc that can be played on the game consoles Xbox (news - web sites) and PlayStation 2 (news - web sites).

"Atari Anthology" will feature 85 games and is scheduled to go on sale in November at a cost of about $20.
