Racing the Beam: The Atari Video Computer System
''Racing the Beam: The Atari Video Computer System'' is a book by Ian Bogost and Nick Montfort describing the history and technical challenges of programming for the Atari 2600 video game console.
== Content ==
The book's title comes from the fact that the Atari 2600, initially branded the VCS (Video Computer System), did not have a video frame buffer, and required the programmers to write each line of video to the television, one line at a time. As there were only a limited number of machine cycles in which to do this, the programmers were literally racing the electron beam across the screen.〔
''Racing the Beam'' discusses the history of the VCS platform and the design decisions that impacted the types of games that could be written for it. Specific titles such as ''Combat'', ''Pitfall!'' and ''Yars' Revenge'' are analyzed from a technical and cultural perspective.〔
''Racing the Beam'' is the first in a series of books on early video game platforms, and has been cited by modern Atari 2600 enthusiasts as an inspiration for attempting to write new games for the platform.〔〔
