Old school gaming will never die. Though consoles like the SEGA Master System, NES, ColecoVision and others are likely collecting either dust in someone's closet collection or grime at the bottom of a trash heap, their games live on by way of the numerous compilations that we've seen released in the past handful of years. The newest is Atari Classics Evolved, a collection of old Atari titles that'll bring back your childhood gaming memories (if you're even old enough to have been around in the early '80s).
Each of the main titles here includes an Evolved setting (obviously inspired by Geometry Wars Evolved), featuring enhanced graphics and sound.

Atari Classics Evolved is a decent compilation package that starts out with only a small number of games, but grows to a very large number once you've unlocked the Atari 2600 catalog. All of them play exactly the same as you'd expect - no better, no worse, for better or worse. Fans of old school games will find something to like here, so check it o...
