We have mentioned a couple of months back that a classic Atari game compilation, Atari Classics Evolved, is on the way to the PSP. In-depth details are now finally revealed through PSP World's interview with game producer Matt Rush.

In addition to the games already mentioned in the previous Atari Classics Evolved article, other games included in this compilation are Asteroids Deluxe, Missile Command, Lunar Lander as well as fifty unlockable Atari 2600 titles. Sounds cool? You betcha, especially for those who grew up playing those games.

Rush also revealed that classic Atari games are also coming to the DS, Xbox Live, and PlayStation Network. Aside from Missile Command and Centipede being currently available on XBLA with achievements, he didn't give any more details about the game's availability on other consoles.

One of the cooler features of PSP's Atari Classics Evolved is the use of peer-to-peer connection for wireless multiplayer gaming via Ad hoc. Definitely a good move on the developer's part.
