    I am completely and totally happy with my game! It was received 5 days after I ordered. The product was new as it should be, loaded without trouble, and now, I am showing my kids the games I used to play when I was their age! We love it!! I couldn't be more thrilled!!!

    I bought this for a friend who wanted to play Centipede again. I was surprised how realistic the game played on the computer. Even her kids who play far more sophisticated games enjoy Centipede and a couple of the others. This is an outstanding bang for your buck.

    I saw another review that mentioned there was spyware in this game. I thought maybe he was mistaken, because I didn't think Atari would have so little self-respect as to do something like that. At the price of the game, it was a minor risk--I thought.

    Well... I didn't even install the game. I chose the option to run the game from the disc for the first time. Immediately, Windows Defender popped up with a "medium threat" warning. I would have explored that further, to see what the threat actually was, but my whole system (I'm operating Vista) was acting unstable, a highly atypical state for my computer. I couldn't get alt tab to work and I couldn't get the game to close. I couldn't get to the Defender warning pop-up to click for more information. Task Manager wouldn't come up, either. I finally solved the problem by yanking the cord on my external dvd drive and disconnecting the game. I could finally exit the Atari window after that.

    I'm disappointed, both because I was looking forward to playing the games and because I had thought better of Atari. I'd like to think this was just a computer glitch and Windows Defender made a mistake, but by the behavior of the game itself, I'm thinking it was no mistake. What a shame.

    i ordered the atari 80 classic games because it was advertised to have the game caled chips challenge on it. between the price of the game and the shipping and handling i paid almost 20 dollars and when i got it in the mail and loaded it chips challenge was not even there! as far as i am concerned i will not use amazon again! i will go to e-bay or somewhere else, this review is not even worth one star but i have to put at least one to get the review posted!
