[Zoyx]

Xbox is going to have a series of documentaries, and the first one is going to be about the ET cartridge dig in New Mexico.

I am certainly not going to buy Xbox the One to watch it.

It'll also be available on the Xbox 360.

I spoke with the producers on this FILM

 

I must say I feel all three sides to this story

 

Some wanna dig

 

some say NO

 

some say they do not care

 

I wonder what will be found and I'am hoping to be part of the doc in some way!!!!!!

[rjchamp3]

I say DIG IT UP

Do they even still make those? Oh, wait, you mean the Xbox One that is actually the Xbox 3. Right? You didn't mean the one that was actually one, right? Nice to know it's on the 360 too. And we mean the 360 right? Not the 3 that is the One?

[Zoyx]

Snark-erific.

If anyone still cares (I don't)....here is the BIG (marketing) event happening on the 26th:

Is it time to rub mud onto my spare E.T. carts and sell them for a premium on ePay yet?

[Master Phruby]

How hard can it be to find those cartridges?. They are buried right next to Microsoft's Zunes.

[+Nathan Strum]

I refuse to watch it because they didn't call it a digumentary.

 

Amateurs.

Lol

Local newspaper picked up the story.

I liked this line "Click here to see how you too can attend this weird event."

[kamakazi]

The curiosity of what Atari actually buried in that landfill gets the better of me. If they find a 2600 wood-grain model I wouldn't mind having it to add to my collection

I wonder just what they expect to find there if anything. What all is supposed to be there? And is this thing actually documented anything is there and what proof do they have it's there? Just curious. Guess I better play ET Phone Home to find out!

Basically it's just excess warehouse stock which was buried there, PCBs, computer trash, carts and stuff.

There's never "millions of ET carts" buried there.

It's nice folklore though and keeps the Atari name alive.

Thanks for the info!

That is a good one. The Zune was actually a neat player. One of the first that had all you can stream for like $15 a month.
