10 of my favorite Atari 2600 Games - Name yours!

[Emperor Megas]

I haven't thought about this in a while, but some of my favorites off the top of my head:

● Keystone Kapers (is definitely my favorite)

● Chopper Command
● Demon Attack
● Freeway (I thought this game was HILARIOUS in 2 player as a kid)
● Frogger
● Lock 'N Chase
● Missle Command
● Pitfall
● Raiders of the Lost Ark (really)
● River Raid (maybe)

As always, there are too many good games to mention. But here are 10 that come to mind when I think of Atari 2600 VCS:

Yars' Revenge
Warlords
Space Invaders
Missile Command
Ms Pac-Man
Solaris
Stargate
Fast Food
River Raid
Solar Fox

Oof, what a lame list. I know Pitfall 2 should be there, but I always played the Atari 800 version, which was always just a little better.

Honorable Mention: Gopher by US Games. Seriously, I loved that video game when I was a kid, even though it was kinda violent (you crush gophers with a shovel). I was also crazy addicted to Fast Food by Telesys, enough to buy all their Atari games (Cosmic Creeps was okay). Solar Fox was spectacular, better than the arcade IMHO, but the touchy controls just made me want to break things. I wish some indie programmer would just tweak that game so the steering would be perfect. And Jr Pac-Man was fantastic but brutally hard. I don't believe I've ever seen all the levels. But it was super-cool to play in 1987.

I'm a little partial to classic Activision titles! : )

Honorable mentions would go to: Journey Escape (I love that chip tune version of "Don't Stop Believin'" at the beginning of the game), Circus Atari (my favorite paddle game), Return of the Jedi Death Star Battle, and Dragonfire.

Can not believe know one had Dragonfire on the list.

Can not believe know one had Dragonfire on the list.

Hey, at least I gave it an honorable mention! Dragonfire really is one of those criminally underrated Atari games.
