+save2600 #2 Posted January 8, 2009 (edited) See what happens when you Microwave an Atari 2600 E.T. Cartridge..... You could make a series out of this ala Mythbusters... See what happens when you drop 2600 Pac-Man into a vat of acid (or a frydaddy)... lol I'd donate those cartridge shells to Al though before getting too carried away Edited January 8, 2009 by save2600 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Godzilla #9 Posted January 8, 2009 that was neat. I wonder if the board inside would still play in a 2600 after you cleaned off the carbon scoring, that's what I'd be really curious about even more interesting if it 'fried' the cart, not destroying it completely, but creating a randomly modified version...

It's amazing what sort of random crap one can find on you tube. Frankly, I think Pac-man was a better microwave candidate. I hate the atari 2600 version of Pacman. With a Passion.

+Random Terrain #14 Posted January 8, 2009 Is it a good idea to microwave kids named Jory? Yes, Jory isn't a name, it's the sound a plunger makes in a crapper that is plugged up with shit and toilet paper. So go ahead and do the world a favor and microwave anyone named Jory.

spikey911 #17 Posted January 9, 2009 See what happens when you Microwave an Atari 2600 E.T. Cartridge..... Morons jumping the bandwagon... again. Completely old hat. I agree. Its also a shame because someone probably could use the cart for their collection.. I know I could.. You just can't find games around like you used to.

Philflound #19 Posted January 11, 2009 Jory is a moron and so is his friends. What I would've paid $100 to see is Jory's microwave explode and his house burn down and see the reaction he gives to that. Phil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy Climber #20 Posted January 11, 2009 I do like watching things like this but....the thing that bugs me is these guys have probably never even given ET a chance. I am sure they just say it sucks because everyone else says it does. Yeah, it's not that great but for the last damn time it is NOT the worst game ever made. The GBA version is worse and they had 20 years to come up with a better game for the ET license. I would be willing to bet over half of the people who dis ET have never even played it. I know these guys haven't because they said Pac-Man was good..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VideoFever1982 #22 Posted January 11, 2009 Seems like a damn waste to me. This is the kind of thing that turns up when someone either has too much time on their hands or doesn't have a life. I have E.T. and i wouldn't do something like that. To me, it's an essential part of anyones collection if they are looking to get all or most games for one system. For some people, depending on where they live, it can be very hard to find even the most average of games. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrAtari2600 #23 Posted January 12, 2009 Everybody knows, the only reason This game is so hated is because nobody really understands what you have to do, Collect all the pieces of the phone thing..., Collect candies for extra points, Make your way home before timer goes off, Done lol In a short short summary I play my E.T I wish that landfill thing was like Found, I'd so have a wall of them in my house Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know these guys haven't because they said Pac-Man was good..... Plus they said "I'm too young to remember Atari" All their "facts" come from the Wikipedia page which they also mention. 500,000 copies were buried in a Mexican landfill? So yeah, if you're gonna slam a game for being the worst ever, maybe take the time to actually play it. Or just be old enough to remember some other games from that era which were CLEARLY worse. But you know, if I had a video camera at that age and YouTube was around I'd probably have all sorts of my own stupid stuff up there too Edited January 12, 2009 by godzillajoe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
