Urban Legend: The Atari Burial Site

14/04/2014 By ausretrogamer

atari-landfillWhat are your plans for April 26? You want to be part of a historic event? Do you love Atari folklore? Then make your travel arrangements to the Alamogordo Landfill in New Mexico (USA) and watch the Fuel Entertainment and Xbox Entertainment Studios production team excavate the landfill to search for some Atari treasure. What will they dig up – will it just be E.T cartridges or just a mangled mess of plastic junk? I do wonder. Perhaps we should let sleeping dogs lie. Better still, read the Atari Inc. – Business Is Fun book instead, it will save you from travelling to New Mexico.

What do you think about this landfill excavation event?
