Engraved with names like Minecraft Notch

Digital Eclipse just released new DLC for Atari 50, covering Namco ports for Atari platforms. And... hey, what's this?

That's Computer Entertainer, the game magazine we released into the Creative Commons this summer! It's already being used in commercial game history projects
