With Tetris arriving on Apple TV+ this week, we've got five other great real-life game-making stories ripe for adaptation
It’s quite possible that no video game company in the entire history of the industry has been as ready-made for cinematic debauchery as Atari in the 1970s and 1980s, when the California-based company was reportedly a haven for young counter-culture types who’d stumbled into an unlikely license to print millions upon millions of dollars for themselves.
Atari’s infamous licensedgame was, by no means, the sole instigator of said billion-dollar, industry-wide collapse. But the story of its development—including developer Howard Scott Warshaw being given just five weeks to develop the game, after kludging together a pitch that would pass the smell test when presented in person to Steven Spielberg himself—is rightly the stuff of bad video game legend.
