#atari age

One of my favorite sites, Atari Age, has just been bought out by Atari SA itself. One of the last bastions of the Old Internet (it's been around since 1998, and I've been signed up with them since 2005), a site made by fans for fans, is now just another part of a faceless corporate entity. There's already an Atari employee there as an admin and moderator, and the site's founder's replies all stink of corporate double-speak already.

And what really galls me is that there only seems to be a tiny handful of people on the site who feel the same way I do. The rest of them are "Congratulations on selling out! Yay, corporate overlords!"

On Reddit, when I try to voice my concerns, I just get "no sweaty,you don't understand why it's the best thing ever for the site :) :) :) :) :)" as a response, and when I ask them *how* it's a good thing, they just keep ":)"-ing at me instead of explaining.

One thing I have never forgotten was some of the April Fool's thing in an Atari Age magazine.

So...

Does anyone else remember from that particular issue the story about the GLS chip? It was short for "Good luck, Sucker!" and was the first chip designed to actually cheat at video games.
