As many of you might know Planet Atari is the No.1 Source in Germany for Ataris consoles and games.

The site features News, Previews, Specials and Reviews of Games including homebrews and exclusive gameplay videos.

Unfortunately there are still many games that need to be reviewed, but I will use this thread here to inform you guys of Updates of the website.

At the moment I am working on adding a lot more gameplayvideos to the existing reviews and new (homebrew) reviews to get online. I will surely post the links in here for all curious readers.

So stay tuned! :)

Strat-O-Gems Deluxe

more to come. Enjoy! :)

I agree. I'd like to add videos for all the homebrew games we have in our store someday. :)

Thanks! You're welcome! :)

I think it is a good way to show the people what it's all about. "One video says more than a thousand words" or something like that :D

I hope that I can add videos to almost every game which we reviewed, but I have still a lot of work to do :( but I'll keep this thread up to date when things happen.

Also I'm facing problems with the Jaguar games because the emulators aren't working as they should.

After some time there is a new review online. This time its Medieval Mayhem from SpiceWare.

Maybe you're missing a gameplay video of it, but this will be added next week. ;)

Long time, no see! :D

Since I was pretty busy with studying there was a little break, but I have two new reviews online:

Ninja Gaiden (Lynx)

and

Battlemorph (Jaguar CD) (with gameplay video ;) )

I finally also added a gameplay video to the Medieval Mayhem Review

Have fun! :)

Wish I could read it. :)

The video is gameplay of the first Wolfenstein VCS, not The Next Mission.

Hmm thanks for the info. I hope that I can replace and fix it very soon!

Here we have another review of a german Quelle game: Wüstenschlacht

It's a raw remake of Activision's Chopper Command and may be also known under the name Pyramid War.

Enjoy!

Planet Atari is a great site! The reviews are well written and fun to read.

I think you should mention the hidden "Wizard"-game in your Phantom II/Pirate review, there are 3 complete games on this cart. ;)

So finally here is the big announcement which wanted to make:

Like mentioned in the Atari 2600 forum I made a Interview with Rob Fulop, who made such great games like Demon Attack and Cosmic Ark. We feature this Interview both in English and German, so all of you can actually read it. ;)
Here is the Link for it:

Interview with Rob Fulop

Feedback will be appreciated ;)
Have Fun!

Another update at Planet Atari!

We have a small special about P.I.T.S. (Portable Information Training System) for the Lynx online.

It is a program coded by Lars Baumstark & Bastian Schick for students of the driving school to prepare for the german test in driving school. It is only available in German but I think also the pics and so would be interesting for you :)

Enjoy!
