jlnsctt Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 My favorite right now is Qix, while ironically my least favorite is also my most rare game....Orc Attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrathchild Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 Least favourite... Atari Chess was pretty lame compared to other chess progs Most Fav... (Designed for cart) - close between Donkey Kong and Defender (Converted to cart) - Ballblazer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atar1G1rl Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 Of the ones I actually own, I think it may be a toss up between Star Wars Arcade and Frogger. Least favorite is E.T. Phone Home! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlnsctt Posted September 8, 2002 Author Share Posted September 8, 2002 Heh heh! It's too bad Atari didn'y bury EVERY copy for every system of any type of ET game!LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super-Genius! Posted September 8, 2002 Share Posted September 8, 2002 I like Choplifter. The cartridge is different than the "disk" version. I thing the cartridge version is much better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night Phantom Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 When I branched into Atari 8-bi gaming from VCS/7800, Qix was a prime motivation. Other faves are Beamrider and Ms. Pac-Man. Not sure about least favorites...I usually don’t invest much energy in dislike. I just move on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuckandCover Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Favorite? Wow, kind of a toughie. I really enjoy Defender, Pit Stop, and Wizard of Wor. Least favorite? Computer War (WarGames). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Lange Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 My fav carts are Atari Assembler Editor Cart and Star Raiders. My least fav is probably Atari Basketball. Though the Atari Assembler Editor Cart has some problems, it is quick to drop it in to test out an idea or two. WRL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetboot Jack Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Favorite Cart - Donkey Kong Least Favorite Cart - Monster Maze (Epyx) - man it sucked when my Dad bought me that as a a present - I still played it but hated it sTeVE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Favorite: Tie (Miner 2049er & Donkey Kong) Least Favorite: Hard to say, but probably something like 3d Tic-Tac-Toe or any of those other "filler" titles. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFonck Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 8-bit Donkey Kong was such an improvement over the ColecoVision version! Every time I boot up the Atari I end up playing DK... might as well throw my other carts away. Least favourite? Wait 'till I got my SIO2PC interface ready and tried every one of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Of those I own, my favorite is Rescue on Fractalus, w/ Donkey Kong Jr a close 2nd, followed by Moon Patrol. The worst one I have is Centipede- while a classic in its own right, it's just too bland- compared to Millipede! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flicky Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Favourite: Spy Hunter Least favourite: Monster Maze Cheers Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheddy Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 Never saw some of those games released over here. For whatever reason we didn't have that many carts, and managed to miss some of the stinkers. Favourite: Joust - Superb as a 2 player game. Least Favourite: Missile Command. It's ok I know - but the worst of our small collection. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flicky Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 Sheddy, I live in the UK as well, and a lot of the carts I have came from the USA. Atari 8-bit carts from the USA work on UK machines without any problems, and many of them can be bought quite cheaply on eBay Cheers Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheddy Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 Cheers Jon for that info. It may come to that when I get my new 130xe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 Least Favorite: Hard to say, but probably something like 3d Tic-Tac-Toe or any of those other "filler" titles. Oh, I dunno. 3D Tic-Tac-Toe isn't that bad really. Of course, I can say that from the perspective of having paid $3 for it. It would have totally blown if I had paid full price, back in the day. (Or worse yet, gotten it for Christmas from my Grandmother!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ Posted September 14, 2002 Share Posted September 14, 2002 Oh man...forgot about GYRUSS! The music (Bach's Toccata & Fugue in D Minor) BLEW ME AWAY way back when...sounds even better now on my stereo GXTV!
