Ed Logg

Logg was impressed with the Atari 2600 (then known as "Atari Video Computer System") and joined Atari's coin-op division and worked on Dirt Bike, which was never released due to an unsuccessful field test. He co-developed with Ed Rotberg Super Breakout after hearing that Nolan Bushnell, co-founder of Atari, wanted Breakout updated. Other games designed or co-designed by Logg include Centipede, Millipede, the Gauntlet series (with inspiration from John Palevich's Dandy), ''Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey and the home versions of the San Francisco Rush'' series. ==Legacy==

In 2011, Logg was awarded a Pioneer Award by the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences for being among those who "laid the foundations of the multi-billion dollar videogame industry." ==Games==
