Earlier this year one of the best known names in Video Games turned 40.  It was in June 1972 that Atari was incorporated as a company, which then went on to create iconic video games such as the simple tennis-like game, Pong.

40 years down the track Atari has now teamed up with Microsoft to bring many of its famous arcade video game titles to your web browser with the launch of Atari Arcade.

Here you’ll find re-imagined versions of classic titles like Pong, Lunar Lander, Centipede, Missle Command and more…and if you visit the site using internet explorer you can play ad-free.
