We all know that Atari is the grandfather of modern day video game consoles, but here's some interesting geeky news — Leonardo DiCaprio is set to star as the creator of Atari in a new flick entitled Atari! How sweet is that?! Thanks to Paramount Pictures, the famous console (which holds a special place in our hearts) will be hitting the big screen. . . And I couldn't think of a better excuse to brush up on our Atari knowledge! Now let's see how much you remember. Oh and by the way, if you really want to get in the spirit, head on over to Atari Play for online access to all the classic games!

i already know i wouldn't do well on this trivia. we had an atari for a short period of time before the nintendo came out. i guess that shows my age?
1Ah, the Atari. Keystone Kapers was my favorite Atari game.
23 out of 5? I need to turn in my geek card.
3When I was your age.... Haha classic!
4Leo + Atari?! Be still my heart.
53/5, I guessed!
6I got four out of five... A little disappointing, cause I pride myself on being an old school geek
7I'm iffy about Leo in this role. It's awful, but Titanic still lingers in my mind.
84/5. Missed the year Atari was founded. Not sure why I thought it was '77
9So a more mainstream "Pirates of Silicon Valley" or am I underestimating the appeal here?
104/5, probably because I couldn't abide Pac-Man on the Atari. It just wasn't the same at home. I preferred the long maze, not the wide maze for the real game experience. Pitfall, on the other hand... THAT was a game!
11Still waiting for Nolan Bushnell to open his uWink restaurant at Hollywood & Highland!
