This is all courtesy of Daedolon who posted this all in IRC but was too lazy to make it into a forum post.

Mobygames has a list of Atari Inc. titles.

Also, here are all the images of the unknown titles:

What game made you dream of the stars?

The "made you feel like a hero" one... possibly Demon Stone. It's another D&D title and is already selling at $9.99 on Atari's own store.

So, since the game that made you afraid of the dark was Alone In the Dark 1-3 (for $5.99 on GOG? WOW), and the game that made monsters afraid of you was The Witcher, then...

1. The game that made you dream of the stars is probably Homeworld.
2. The game that made you ride with outlaws would be either Freddy Pharkas or Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive.
3. The game that made you fear your past is obviously F.E.A.R. because Sierra/ActiBlizz I believe published the first one of those.
4. The game that made you go to the underground is Diablo 1. It is unavailable through official channels anymore, since Blizzard obviously doesn't like us enough to sell their old games through GOG.com when they obviously need some tweaking to run on the current platforms.
5. The game that made you feel like a hero is either Quest For Glory or (total stretch) Area 51 (the arcade light gun game, NOT the godawful FPS that was also called Area 51 that released in 2005.

Those be my guesses for Atari releases.

I'm still holding out hope for the original RollerCoaster Tycoon games coming soon, though.

"What game made you feel like a hero"

This might be Silver.

Go to the underground = Doom II?

The outlaws one might not be Desperados; http://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/dead-mans-hand

When are they supposed to reveal more of these?

Kinda disappointing they only did one today.

But... some of those aren't Atari games... I'm confused.

The rights to FEAR are now with Warner Bros., who released the original game on Steam a while back for $10. I would not be surprised if it comes to GOG eventually.

That said these were all confirmed as Atari releases, so many of your guesses, including FEAR, are a little off.

Most of those aren't Atari games. I don't get it either.

That was a fun little game.

Alone in the Dark 3 (Imfogrames) has a western theme with Zombies no less and there is always Dead Man's Hand from Atari.

Alone in the Dark 3 is already on GOG, so it can't be one of the clues.
