JeffVav Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 My favourite non-Atari, non-Activision, non-Imagic game for the 2600 was without a doubt Empire Strikes Back: https://atariage.com/software_page.php?SoftwareLabelID=501 Mightn't have pushed it much technically but it was damned fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that was a Great game! One of those I borrowed from a friend, then played a lot BITD, then later bought myself a boxed copy on eBay before prices went through the roof.

masschamber Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 starpath, definitely starpath when killer satellites, which is still a solid c+ game, is by far the companies worst game they're doing something right. Plus party mix and the unreleased sweat are 2 of the best looking games on the console. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
high voltage Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 I like all three TechnoVision games, play them on and of. Nuts is like Space Invaders. Of couse, one of my all time faves: X Man, great game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davyK Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Parker Bros would be my first pick. Empire Strikes Back and Super Cobra are 2 games that spring to mind - spent a lot of time with those - even with the headache inducing scrolling on Super Cobra!!!! The other minor 3rd party game I played a lot was Cosmic Creeps by Telesys, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Rabbit Transit, and Frogger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+FujiSkunk Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 US Games *ducks* Eh, joking or not, I'd be willing to give you that one. Eggomania and Commando Raid were good games, and I even got some enjoyment out of Space Jockey. It's not enough to make me call U.S. Games the (third-)best third party ever, but I wouldn't bebrudge anyone for picking it based on their better titles. Now if you had said Mythicon or Froggo... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jstick Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 (edited) Eh, joking or not, I'd be willing to give you that one. Eggomania and Commando Raid were good games I played a ton of Commando Raid and Entombed back in the day, more than some of the more popular games that I owned at the time.
