Burgertime is light years better than the original Atari 2600 basketball. BTW my son plays the Spongebob equivalent of Burgertime on Nick.com.

I had one of those as well but never owned Intellivision. You had to have a ColecoVision for the primo version of Donkey Kong. While they did make it for Atari it just didn't measure up.

-Freeway
-H.E.R.O.
-Keystone Kapers
-the Swordquest games: Earth, Water, Fire, and Airworld
-and E.T., the game that killed Atari.

Fiction! These games were all released in the arcade in 1982 and not available on the Atari 2600 until several years later.

I know when I had my Atari 2600 in 1981 that I didn't have such kickass games at that time. '83-'84 maybe... '81? Nah.

Umm...wasn't it still just the plain ol' Atari (or Atari VCS) in '81? I remember owning mine before the 5200 was released and there was no "2600" designation until Atari needed to sell something with double the number in its name.

I think Sonny meant to say his Atari was bought in 1981, not that he had those games already. I believe it was summer of '82 before I bought one. The technology was about 5 years old already and EVERYONE was still buying them. Incredible.

Asteroids and Space Invaders where the big games before the newer classics showed their face. I think Atari units sold mostly for Space Invaders.

The best arcade reproduction on the Atari 2600 was Berzerk. I LOVED that game. No voice, but the cheesy graphics were on the money.
