And 5 million of those hideous cartages ended up being buried in the New Mexico Desert
Adventure was the best, Haunted House probably second. The worst game of all time was the X-rated Custer's Revenge. Pac Man for the 2600 was almost as bad.
This is a true story.When that game first came out back in 83 for the 2600 my mom who spent a large portion of every day bitching at me about how i am wasting my life on these mind numbing stupid computer games played one game of 2600 pac man and then got so friggin addicted to it she actually called in sick from work for 2 days in a row and played it almost non stop.She went 20 hours the first day then 18 the second day and on day two the blister she got on her thumb from day one burst open and started pouring blood all over the controller and the floor!So like any normal human being she KEPT ON PLAYING WITH BLOOD RUNNiNG DOWN HER HAND.She would grab some paper towels and wipe the blood off of the controller and then in bwetween boards would run in to the bathroom and get a bandaid for her theumb and keep playing.Then when the blood would go through the bandaid she would get a new one and wipe the blood off the controller that went on for a n hour until my dad came home and freaked out and locked the atari in a closet for a full month until she could control herself. That christmas we got imagics demon attack and I honestly thought that my mom was going to die in front of the television playing that game no matterwhat time you went in the tv room it seemed she was in there playing it for weeks before she regained controll and her sences.Those are the only two games she lost all grasps on reality playing though.Those are practically the only games she ever did play forsome reason wich is probably a good thing considering the way she was with them.
Yeah, the 2600 Pac-Man sucked. The guy who programmed it only had 6 weeks to do it, and he allegedly didn't like the arcade version anyway. But the 2600 Ms. Pac-Man was much better.
