Chief Executive Officer Bruno Bonnell. “We continue to reach and surpass milestones, such as the ten-millionth mark of Dragon Ball Z game sales, and redefining genres we originated, such as Alone in the Dark’s horror survival and Test Drive Unlimited’s Massively Open Online Racing (M.O.O.R.™). Atari continues to move forward and seek out groundbreaking, imaginative and entertaining properties like the underground based, street smart HOT PXL. Evident as part of our E3 line-up, these and other games are all part of the Company’s evolution and continued focus on gameplay.”
