Atari POKEY: One of it's best music compostions.
The POKEY was Atari's user input chip, It took the data from the Keyboard, joystick, or whatever the controls being used were. HOWEVER, It was ALSO the sound chip. It produced a very distincive sound, and the chip was used in The Atari 2600, their Atari 8-bit computer line, and their arcade games.
This compostion, from the Atari 800 game Jet Set Willy, is probably one of it's best compostions. Click here to listen to it.

This is amazing, but i can't understand why you play an Atari instead of a PS3 or Xbox.
Well i also cant understand why people play Xbox instead of PS3

Because, even if they may be out-dated, have blocky graphics, or are not "1337," they are still FUN.

Actually, the best gaming experience comes from a highly upgraded computer.
