    @spaghettigodultra5069 Год назад

    Putting Frogs and Flies and Frostbite much higher then Pitfall or HERO is ridiculous.

  • @Warrior_Resisting_Colonialism

    Vanguard was one of the best for the system.

  • @altwasb

    Top favorites but not the best. Raiders of the Lost Ark... Non-linear game play. Mission specific items and bosses. Internal clock. Multiple weapons. Item shops. Inventory management. The first rpg I ever played.

    Spider Fighter as number 1? That's such an amazing game!

  • @Vargon7
    @Vargon7 Год назад

    The 2600 versions of Beamrider and Phoenix are both worth playing.

  • @basketballsteve54
    @basketballsteve54 Год назад

    Frogs and Flies way to high unless you are actually high.

  • @basketballsteve54
    @basketballsteve54 Год назад

    Although there are obviously many great Atari 2600 games to choose from - enough to have variances in lists - these are my Top 30, though they're not exactly in order. That would have been too much to assess. I probably could've made a list of Activision games on their own, being that they were great titles. Anyway, my top 30 Atari games list is: 1. Adventure 2. Missile Command 3. Yars' Revenge 4. Space Invaders 5. Bowling 6 Enduro 7. Ice Hockey 8. Pitfall! 9. Pitfall ll 10. Decathlon 11. Golf 12. Asteroids 13. Frogger 14. Freeway 15. Galaxian 16. Burgertime 17. Human Cannonball 18. Dodge 'em 19. Jungle Hunt 20. Joust 21. Skiing 22. Tennis 23. Keystone Kapers 24. Super Breakout 25. Kaboom! 26. Gorf 27. Demon Attack 28. H.E.R.O. 29. Millipede 30. Pinball

  • @Kryptic1046
    @Kryptic1046 Год назад

    Pac-Man for Atari was terrible. I'd replace it with Dolphin but I'd also have Dolphin higher up. I'd have put Keystone Capers somewhere on the list too, that game was sick.

  • @ddewittfulton
    @ddewittfulton Год назад

    Excellent list! I appreciate how many licensed titles are on the list. Several I had never heard from! Jawbreaker looks intense!

  • @wankertanker1813
    @wankertanker1813 2 года назад

    Pitfall is a super great game. Many ahead of it on Ur list I never played during that time, so maybe they are better? Seaquest? Ms Pacman was way better than Pacman on 2600.

  • @milespearson2
    @milespearson2 2 года назад

    Top 10 for Atari 2600 according to my opinion: 1) Zaxon, 2) Defender II, 3) Batlezone, 4) Joust, 5) Space attack, 6) tennis, 7) Quest in Quintana Roo, 8) UFO vs canons, 9) Missile Command, 10) Space attack

    Does anyone remember the trick for Space Invaders? Hold down reset button at the same time while turning on console and you get double fire! I could literally wipe out the whole screen in 10 seconds. I turned over Space Invaders at least 10 times. I could be playing for hours on a good day.

  • @ricklindberg4228
    @ricklindberg4228 2 года назад

    Spider Fighter was good but seriously? Ms. Pac Man is #1. Where is Berzerk? Video Pinball? Megamania? Joust? Dig Dug? Centipede? Adventure? Keystone Kapers? Kaboom? Maze Craze? Chopper Command? Donkey Kong? Props for including H.E.R.O. One of the best ever. Very difficult to master but I finally did back in the day. Yars Revenge, River Raid, Demon Attack, Pitfall, Enduro. All great games. But Combat?!? There is a reason it was included with the console. Not very good.

  • @sandal_thong8631
    @sandal_thong8631 2 года назад

    I'd like to see a video of Atari's first 33 games for the Atari VCS/2600 from 1977-1979. But most are two-player, so I hope it would be by someone like in the comments who says "I played Combat for hours with my [friend/brother/relative]." Another option would be to put them in order of carts sold. However, numbers on one web page differ from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_Atari_2600_video_games which may have numbers before returns?

  • @raineyhayes3821
    @raineyhayes3821 2 года назад

    Pitfall 2, Haunted House, Laser Blast, Bermuda Triangle, Dark Chambers, Space Attack and Megamania would be on my list.

  • @JustWasted3HoursHere
    @JustWasted3HoursHere 2 года назад

    Pitfall, H.E.R.O. and Yars Revenge (beat by Fishing Derby?) are not even in the top ten? Of course all lists like this are subjective, so anyway. Keystone Kapers is worth looking at too.

  • @MikeD1101a
    @MikeD1101a 2 года назад

    River Raid was OK, but something about it was just very boring to me. Sure, most of these games were very repetitive, but River Raid bored me about 30 seconds. Yars Revenge is the one I'd have to put at #1. Also, Atari 2600 Pac Man never, ever belongs on any list in front of the 2600 version of Ms Pac Man.

    • @sandal_thong8631
      @sandal_thong8631 2 года назад

      In a list of sales it's number one whether you say it sold 7 million or 8 million in its lifetime, or less in 1982-1984. Ms. Pac-Man may be number 10, although I think wikipedia's sales numbers are off.

  • @bciufo2909
    @bciufo2909 2 года назад

    I spent a lot of time with Spider Fighter and Frostbite. I think Combat came with the Sears version of the console. I remember plugging in the paddles to drive the tank and it would go crazy!

    • @sandal_thong8631
      @sandal_thong8631 2 года назад

      I used the paddles on the jet, and pushing both buttons was like doing left and right on the joystick simultaneously. Weird result.

  • @offthecuffnews5374
    @offthecuffnews5374 2 года назад

    Space Invaders only #22? Really?

  • @powerpup97
    @powerpup97 2 года назад

    You have some unique tastes. I’m surprised Pac Man made your list considering its reputation. I would have put Defender and Berzeek on my list.

    • @sandal_thong8631
      @sandal_thong8631 2 года назад

      People bought Pac-Man and played it quite a bit during Pac-Man Fever. That's probably why so many imitators sold, too. It did end up selling 7 million Atari 2600 carts (not sure how many of those were returned), so if someone made a list by sales it would be number 1.
