This was a fantastic look into the crazy world of Atari VCS development. It stands the Atari platform up in the context of the culture of the 70s and 80s, and shows how the platform influenced both the technical and creative decisions that were made to create games on the platform. This in turn has influenced the games industry up to this day, so having historic context is a worthwhile endeavor. Highly recommended for technical or games people.
On a programmer's note, the innovation and creativity that the Atari programmers managed to muster up to make things run on that platform puts us to shame!
