Default Re: Top 10 shameful Video Games

I am ashamed to say that I owned three of those games for my Atari 2600 (Donkey Kong, PacMan, ET). ET was by far the worst of the bunch. Another really bad one that wasn't mentioned was "Raiders of the Lost Ark" for the Atari 2600.

The number 1 worst game is just bizarre...a rape fantasy game for the Atari 2600...LOL.

I'm gonna have to find an emulator to try it out. I had an underprivelaged enough childhood that my first console was a NES (and it wasn't a toploader)

My NES was a frontloader but i had a 2600 as well. I only got it about a year or two before the NES came out though.

IIRC, the girl clearly give a big pixelated smile when you're about to give it to her. This was probably inserted purely to ease the rape concerns.

Before I saw the list, I thought this might have been over sensitive PC crap. Now I read the list and find that it's probably worse than described. Ugh. That game's terrible.

Living in the suburbs and being relatively poor, I got the 2600 and some games as a present from a rich grandparent and never stopped playing.

I think I remember beating E.T.(phoning home and getting picked up) but then you just start over. It was a pain and took forever, but I was probably 8 and had nothing better to do. I also remember playing Raiders of the Lost Ark and beating that. I never fully understood that game, but I remember getting all the pieces of the ark and beating it. I never played the Pacman arcade version, so the 2600 version was a godsend. I thought all these games were just awesome when I was a kid.

I can relate to what you're saying. I was about 9 or 10 years old when I was playing these games, and played them for hours on end. Kids these days would turn their noses up at these games, but I thought they were great.

It was only a few years later when the NES came out that I realized how crappy the Atari games were. It's all relative.
