Atari Action Galore At VGXPO In Philly

tjtj.jpg I believe some Game Developer staffers will be at VGXPO in Philadelphia this weekend (our associates are running a neat Game Career Seminar there), but separately of that, Atari Age has revealed some Atari-related retro goodness going on at the fun-looking consumer game show.

The explain: "Atari, Inc. has teamed up with AtariAge, AtariMuseum.com, and AtariProtos.com to bring an Atari-sponsored classic gaming booth to the VGXPO taking place on October 27-29th at the Valley Forge Convention Center near Philadelphia. At this booth you'll be able to meet and talk with Atari executives, including Chairman and Chief Creative Officer Bruno Bonnell, play and buy the latest Atari homebrew games, examine, play and learn about various prototype games, and learn more about Atari's rich past."

What's more: "Awesome Arcades will also be on hand with several of their new arcade cabinets that you can try firsthand. In addition, you'll be able to sign up to win one of 100 Atari Flashback 2 game consoles being given away! " Nice to see Atari playing nice with Atari Age and the other 'keepers of the flame', here.
