Tac-Scan is a really good game and you can never have enough paddle games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electricmastro Posted April 29, 2022 Author Share Posted April 29, 2022 A nice racing game on the 2600. Reminds me of Danny Sullivan's Indy Heat: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the ultimate in un-fun, check out the TI99 version. ? Oof, this is the same terrible game but crammed into a much smaller space. I don't know if I would say one is worse than the other maybe that the TI version is a far more concentrated hit of bad video game. In the interest of keeping it positive though apparently the same guy who made this game also made Sierra's home version of Frogger so on the plus side he got to move on up towards bigger n better things Edited April 29, 2022 by harmonyFM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frozone212 Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 At the risk of being flame, I will add pac man here and Football One is a technical achievement and the other holds the honor of being the first football game for a console in history. Once i get my 2600 fixed, I just might play a bit. Pity I don't have a friend to play with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glazball Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Didn't Football for the Bally Professional Arcade (aka Astrocade) predate the Atari VCS Football by a few months? I'd throw in Turmoil, though perhaps it is already well-regarded and not underappreciated. I could get behind Infiltrate and Jawbreaker too, but not Reactor. It's just a noisy mess visually and aurally, and imo is the worst Parker Bros. game produced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
