Title: $50,000 Prize Contest for creating iPong
Post by: pokeplayer984 on March 20, 2012, 01:40:54 PM

Remember Pong?  The very first popular video game? (Remember, I said "popular".  Computer Space may have been the first, but it was not popular.) Well, turns out that Atari is offering a $50,000 cash prize to whoever can make the best iOS version of it.

All working entries must be received by April 15th.  Winner will be announced August 2nd.

I'm not participating in this, but best of luck to all who enter.

See ya later!
