Indeed, Atari is launching a new console called the Atari Box which will feature some of the classic Atari games such as Pong, Rollercoaster Tycoon & Pac-Man!

They remained pretty vague about the release date or if we will get a revamped version of the classics or not. Regardless, to me, this new console is a way to reconnect to my childhood (even though Nintendo became L-I-F-E very quickly after).

Only a few 90’s babies will remember when Atari was the Sony of its time. My uncle introduced me to it as a kid. I would literally drop the Sega Genesis for a day to immerse myself in those classic Atari games.

I think it was their overall simplicity that made them a huge success in those days. As a 20 something man now, I can’t help but think that some lights-flashing-complex-as-hell games can’t really survive the test of times (San Andreas gets a pass though).

Let’s revisit some of their classics so you can refresh your memory. Here’s a quick list of the games that are featured in the Atari Box.

Pac-Man

Pac-Man is that type of games that can either make you break your controller out of anger or zone out eternity as you’re playing. I bet most of our readers who ever played with this game remember when they heart was racing when the blue ghosts came through!

Pong

To me Pong is the spiritual grandfather of “Pinball“. Pong is those type of games that make or break a friendship. It literally puts your competitive spirit on steroids and any goes (my cousin even punched me in the ribs at one point).

PITFALL HARRY ATARI VIDEO GAMES RETRO GAMES MONTREAL

 Pittfall

Mario & Nintendo owe a lot to Pittfall. Even though today it may seems graphically outdated, this particular made even a ADHD kid like me focus for hours (and shouting when I had “Game Over” moments)

Would You Give It A Try

I’m wondering how many of our readers will cruise down memory lanes and reconnect the the classic Atari games? Is there a particular game you expect to be in the Atari Box?

Let us know in the comment section now!

Malefycia Is Restoring The Feeling, One Spooky Scream At A Time

Long are the days when I was cruising down the streets on October 31st either looking for candies to devour for 3 weeks straight or even as an adult looking for a popping club where I could tell people ”My costume is ME tonight”.

The truth is, I think Malefycia restored something that I thought was buried inside me. They reminded me that not only I liked Halloween but I just couldn’t find an alternative in my adult life to spark my curiosity on one side and get the thrill going on the other.

Malefycia been around for a minute but this year they’re trying something different…I mean different.

You’re familiar with the 7 sins in the bible don’t you? You’re aware of what a haunted house is supposed to be don’t you? Well, something in their team had the genius and actually vicious idea to combine these two things who might have nothing to with each other on the outside looking in but in this new adventure/haunted house experience; it all make sense!

their show called V7CE is cross theatre performance, cross the most scary thing you’ve ever seen. The show includes different scenes and interactive plays putting on the forefront the 7 sins from the bible.

What always stand out to me when it comes to Malefycia, is there raw and authentic attention to details.

Do yourself a favor and come immerse yourself in this universe and your inner child and your thrill-seeking inner adult have some fun.

The city has been quiet fashion wise over the years and as platform that mostly talked about fashion in its inception, we’ve felt it the most over here.

There would be sparks of hope here and there but besides Festival De Mode & Design, not a lot of things really stood out.

When I heard about ”The Glitch” it’s like I knew what it was about without nothing what it was about.

I mean good branding is good branding but it was more so who’s behind the good branding this time around. I had the chance to work with Myraï Lavoie in the past and one thing I can is : there’s a method to her madness.

Every artist has an eye and that eye is shaped by our views of the world and life experiences. Myraï had an interesting life.

One where being different is actually the move. One where if you don’t fit somewhere, you don’t try to get in the mold, you bend it.

For all the lack of support or misunderstand she got in Montreal, she found a place to be creative working or being in room with the likes of Paris Hilton & P. Diddy to name a few.

What she’s learned from coming out of her shell and experiencing the world she’s about the share it with us with her own fashion called ”The Glitch” tonight.

”The Glitch” is exactly what I thought it was going to be. A standout experience and experience and something you’ve never seen before just like its creator.

Sometimes the depiction of such reality is either unfair or made to look down at somebody. Other times, filmmakers have the challenge to depict a reality in a way to uplift what other cultures are bringing to the table.

Milan Bihlmann and Muammer Yilmaz are two filmmakers who know where they stand when it comes to that.

Rêves D’Afrique” is the epidemy of that. The two filmmakers decided to go to 7 countries in Africa to not only paint the picture for the world but to give the good people out there something we forget to give one another : ”a piece of yourself’.

Armed with a backpack, film gear and true altruism, the duo spread love and good deeds wherever they could throughout their trip.
