This is definetly the shortest post ill be posting. so put your absoulute favetorie game for 2600 down below and ill pick 5, even though i already have 7. anyways bye and ill post on saturday saying how my new atari goes!

That depends on what sort of game you like the most. Do you prefer single-screen action games with a lot of shooting, for instance, or adventure games in which you travel from screen to screen, and have to use your brain a bit?

Honestly for me it dosent matter. a good game in my opinon dosnt depend on the genre. also i do like pitfall, but i like battlezone to. i really want dungeon in the atari store though. i really like atari in general though. also by atari i mean atari games not company i like activision and imagic to.

Well, it's definitely worth checking out Pitfall II, H.E.R.O., Frostbite and Seaquest. If you like fast-paced spaceship shooters in which you have to rescue people, Moonsweeper and Flash Gordon are terrific. Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, Beany Bopper and Bank Heist are a lot of fun as well.

 

I prefer multi-screen exploration games, so among my personal favorites are Adventure, Superman, Tutankham and the highly underrated E.T. and Raiders of the Lost Ark (although you have to read the manuals to enjoy the latter two -- that seemed to be the main problem with a lot of folks who didn't like them).
