Atari VCS Review

The Atari VCS tries to do some interesting things but ultimately fails as a console and a PC alternative. It sets out to do some interesting things, but it doesn't do anything unique, and it doesn't do anything well. It definitely doesn't justify its price tag.

LOL! I figured it would be a waste of money especially for the asking price.

I cant wait to add it to my collection. Hopefully I can get a good deal on it

It’s as if Atari releases bad consoles on purpose.

[Chocoburger]

If nothing else, par for the course, eh?

[CrimsonWing69]

Higher score than I thought it would get, honestly.

Stadia 2.0

That was the most low key of low key console launches ever I had no idea it was out.

Thus article kind of sums it up feels like a dream machine it's basically a PC in a mini case that costs way to much and doesn't do anything well but tries to do some interesting things

I feel the reviewer was a little unfair on its oc capabilities because of the os he chose

Oh 100%. The one person that was reading that article that wants to install some Linux build on an Atari game console was probably equally as disappointed lol but yeah I'm sure very few people care about them not supporting every Linux distro out the box.

Unless they claimed it supports Linux distros out the box, it shouldn't have even been mentioned in a professional product review honestly.
It's a bloody betch to install Ubuntu on my Surface laptop too (works on my gaming PC but I've tried a few times on the laptop and had nothing but issues) but I don't think I would mention that in a review of the laptop lol

I was hoping that this console is at least serviceable so that we could have another alternative to the Big 3. Well it doesn’t seem that way now.

At least it looks cool enough to hack.
