• What to do next?

  klokeid--2008January 13, 2011

  Pros

  I like the concept.

  Cons

  I can't figure out what to do next.

  Summary

  I like the concept. But I don't know what to do next. " It does however require ROM image files from the original Atari systems " Well, I got rid of my collection of Aari 8 bit computers a while back. So what do I do now?

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This is one of the best apps I own, up there with MacMame and Stella. One note, I had a problem with "can't open disk image!" errors for the longest time, which I tracked down to the fact that my copy of Atari800MacX was installed in a folder called Games Æ? inside Applications -- the funky "f" broke something in the program. Anyhoo, the program is a godsend if you're an Old Skool Atari 8-bit gamer. Shamus! Shamus II! Necromancer! Archon! It's a good time to be alive. (The only thing I'd ask for is support for joystick simulation using the arrow keys, rather than the 10-key pad, which doesn't exist on a Powerbook of course).

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I'd like to thank the programmers whose hard work made this conversion possible. It's GREAT, works wonderfully. Playing all these silly old games is like opening a door to the past. They're all fun and I'm so happy to have them.

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />Very grateful for this lovely and free app. I am especially thrilled by the possibility to go in full screen mode, and to configure the keyboard as joystick. The only little issue I have is iTunes starts spewing crap as soon as I fire up the program. Nonetheless, I've spent many joyous hours with this app. Big thanks to the developer!
