	Millipede (game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		When the millipede is shot (only one segment at a time), a mushroom is created in its place.
		Millipedes cannot move through mushrooms, so they are forced to move around them.
		The centipede is now a millipede, the flea is now a bee, and the scorpion is now an earwig.

	Millipede Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Millipede is the improved sequel to the arcade hit, Centipede for the VCS.
		Millipede is harder, faster and has many more enemies than the original.
		In case you haven't played either, the millipede begins at the top of the screen and bounces off the mushrooms, heading closer to you at the bottom of the screen.

	Atari - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Atari develops, publishes and distributes games for all major video game consoles, as well as for the personal computer, and is currently one of the largest third-party publishers of video games in the United States.
		The original Atari was a pioneer in arcade games, home video game consoles, and personal computers, and its dominance in those areas made it the major force in the computer entertainment industry from the 1970s to the mid-1980s.
		Atari CEO Ray Kassar was furious, as Atari owned the rights to publish Donkey Kong for computers, and he accused Nintendo of double dealing with the Donkey Kong license.

	The Atari Times - 2600 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Millipede is one of those titles which is lacking in the graphics department, but absolutely shines in terms of gameplay.
		Atari, being in the business of publishing arcade games, had the advantage of porting them to the 2600 with no worry of negotiating for licensing fees and such rot.
		Millipede put the player in control of a “base” charged with the duty of blasting the heck out of an advancing millipede and a garden full of spiders, fleas and other pests.

		Apparently Atari felt the same way as Millipede was planned for all four of its game systems: 2600, 5200, 400/800, and 7800, but only the 2600 and 400/800 versions ever made it out the door.
		However Atari made a few tweaks to the computer AI and added "Swarm Stages" to prevent players from using the same strategies they used in Centipede (such as the mushroom fort) that allowed them to play for hours at a time.
		Millipede was complete and ready to ship when Atari was sold to the Tramiels and almost all video game development was put on hold.

	AtariProtos.com - All Your Protos Are Belong To Us!
		Atari had always intended for its own internal developers to program Millipede, but for some reason GCC decided that they would do one anyway despite being told not to (probably in an attempt to prove they were the better programming team).
		Millipede never received a fair shake in the arcades, and was frowned upon by Centipede loyalists (mostly due to the Asteroids Deluxe effect).
		Millipede is one of the better arcade to home translations on the 2600, and well worthy of the 16K of space it takes up.

	GameShark \| Reviews \| Atari Anthology Review
		Atari Anthology almost exclusively represents the early days of gaming before the great crash of 1983/1984 (there are a handful of later Atari 2600 games), known to collectors as The Golden Age of Video Gaming.
		Atari Anthology’s interface is better looking to the eye, but somehow I think Activision Anthology’s retro-gaming-area alphabetical menu worked a bit better for such a large number of games.
		Atari Anthology is also the first console software package to offer these games since they originally appeared on the 2600, so in a way it represents history itself.

		These divisions became Atari Corp., which later merged with JTS and whose assets were part of Hasbro Interactive and are now part of Infogrames.
		Centipede came (in small part) from the ashes of Atari Corp. Interestingly, Hasbro has resurrected the Atari name and logo; many of their recent classic releases (Atari Arcade Hits 2, for example) appear under the Atari name.
		Atari Games is now a subsidiary of Midway Games and was responsible for games such as Gauntlet Legends and Rush the Rock.

	IGN: Atari Anthology Review
		Atari Anthology isn't the company's first repackage of classic games, but it is the first one the company has released on console gaming systems.
		All of the pack's games, from the fl and white vector games to the Atari 2600 games released well after the "death" of the hardware, are emulated near perfectly on the console system.
		Granted, many of the top-selling Atari-published 2600 titles during its heyday were licensed properties that would have had to have been repurchased for their inclusion: Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Superman, Berzerk, Jungle Hunt, and countless other truly classic games made for the Atari VCS had to be left out for this compilation.

	Remembering Atari
		Playing against the computer system was fine to a point but once you learned the computer's patterns, the game would become boring very fast but it was completely different when you played against another person since a person could always vary the style of play that they would use against you.
		While the CD does have documentation for certain aspects of the Atari 8-bit series of computers for those who might have forgotten how the Atari 8-bit computer used to work, the documentation for the program itself is not to be found.
		If you download an Atari machine language program that ends in the extension prg or com, you have to first change the extension to XFD and then read it into a virtual drive.

	ClassicGaming.com - Atari Anniversary Advance Review
		There are two control modes available - a standard one that uses the joypad for all movement, and an alternative mode that tries to emulate the arcade 2 stick feeling by using the keypad for the left stick and the a/b buttons for the right (firing is done on the index finger pads).
		Of the other four, Millipede and Crystal Castles (especially Crystal Castles) would certainly be nice but I can see people screaming in frustration at the trak-ball simulation on the thumb-pad.
		The only thing that's really come close to multi-player Pong is Carl Forhan's Ponx which uses special features of the Atari Lynx to allow 2 people to play the game on the same Lynx unit in a manner of the old early 80's head to head sports handhelds.

		Atari has done a nice job of legally giving us another look at these early games, long after the consoles themselves have been relegated to the dust bin.

	Phosphor Dot Fossils \| Atari 2600
		The Atari 2600, known early on as the Atari VCS (Video Computer System), was Atari's second shot at a cartridge-based system.
		Ironically, while some people later blamed Atari - and specifically CEO Ray Kassar - for keeping the 2600 on the market too long (its last new mass-production game was released in 1990), the machine almost died an early death under Atari's founder, Nolan Bushnell.
		The standard Atari CX40 joystick is nearly an icon unto itself, while arcade control maker Wico got in on the act with its Command Control series including an arcade-style joystick and trakball.
