They're not really Atari. It's just that they acquired them and then wore their skin.

I don’t think they’re infogrames either

Actually, I think they are. At least the parent company was always infogrames.

They started as infogrames, then they acquired Atari and started calling themselves that. Then they spun off a new publishing label using the infogrames name again. The problem is keeping track of what infogrames of today, used to be? They've acquired so much shit over the years that's it's a freaking mess.
