tz101 Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 What is your pick for the best Activision game for the VCS. Tough choice, but I waver between Frostbite and Enduro. After careful thought it comes down to Frostbite. The game is awesomely fun and holds my attention for longer spells than others like HERO and Robot Tank. Plus, I never tire of outsmarting that pesky polar bear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Pitfall II 2) Starmaster 3) Chopper Command 4) Robot Tank 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roberto Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) Well, Pitfall (both I and II) are an obvious choice but, beside them, I'd say H.E.R.O. Edited January 3, 2011 by roberto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinman Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 My personal favorite is Starmaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariLeaf Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 I'd go with Ice Hockey (BIG surprise right) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reinhardt Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) River Raid Fishing Derby Pitfall II Laser Blast Sky Jinks It's hard to pick just one. But I think Pitfall II is my favorite. Edited January 3, 2011 by Reinhardt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itchy Koala Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 River Raid Seaquest Fishing Derby (seriously) But since its pick and not picks, ill have to go with Seaquest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littleman jack Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 There are so many great ones(Beamrider, Pitfall, Starmaster, Frostbite, H.E.R.O., Spider Fighter, River Raid, Ice Hockey, Enduro, Freeway, Chopper Command . . .), but if I had to choose one, it'd be Seaquest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itchy Koala Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 No love for Kaboom? Ahhh kaboom, how could i forget! Unfortunately my jittery paddle controllers (all 4 sets of them) make it not worth playing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaybird3rd Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 If I had to pick only one, it would be Kaboom!: it's a minimalist design which combines addictive gameplay, a terrific theme, perfect controls (as long as your paddles are jitter-free), and appealing audiovisuals. All in 2K of ROM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanhq Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Hey, what about Keystone Kapers? I love this game. Of course the other mentions like Pitfall, River Raid, H.E.R.O. are of course really good too. Activision made some of the best 2600 game IMHO (along with iMagic). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
