Ahh, welcome to the wonderful world of Atari 8-bit gaming! Definitely my favourite gaming machine.

Check out atariage.com. They've probably got what you're looking for.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the DP list only include Cartridge titles? To be honest I'm not sure I know of a list of *all* Atari games. I honestly don't know much about the XEGS but I'm assuming it can still be connected to a disk drive.

I'd have to sit down and play some games again to come up with a top 15, but these definitely come to mind: M.U.L.E., River Raid, Serpentine, Boulder Dash, Great American Cross Country Road Race, Gamestar Baseball, Miner 2049'er, Montezuma's Revenge, Trivia Quest, Zombies (a great co-operative game!).

Ok, thanks. I will check out Digital Press list of games for the XE, and Atari Age.

I definitely second Shamus and Boulder Dash...

For two players, add Rally Speedway to the list. What larks...
