Atari 2600 had some great games that stand the test of time. Even if you didn't grow up with it, there are some addicting games on the Atari 2600. Here are the games I'd consider 5-star.

Brings back such memories. Played Adventure the most. Hours and hours on that one. Had the invisible mazes memorized. Played Yars revenge with friends while on lunch break during middle school. *** Pitfall had an offer in the instruction booklet where you could take a picture of a high score and mail it in for some prize. I think I even sent it in but don't remember what I got. Loved the 2600. I remember playing space invaders and Kaboom all Christmas day when I first got it. Before that, all I had was Telstar Pong.

​@@nehemiahpouncey3607 you can get a score/mileage so high in night driver that it resets to zero...just bug through the barrier and you get stuck for awhile racking up points (i always assumed it's your car rolling down the mountain, hahah) the cars didn't even actually move, they would sit there if you stopped, sometimes the road gets so narrow you cannot even pass them, and you get knockex off the road, down the mountain. it really needed something else to be better...maybe deer jumping out ahead of you, since it is night.

When people nowdays hear 2600, all they ever think of is ET, the bad Pac-Man port, and shovelware. They fail to realize that there were a ton of great games on that system that hold up today. One title I'd add that you missed was Beamrider. Beamrider, Enduro, River Raid, and HERO are probably my favorites from the system. Even though my parents had an Odyssey 2 and a C64, I'd go to my friends place to play Enduro. The rest were done on the C64 as well.

Pressure Cooker is one of the most underrated Atari 2600 games and one of my favourites; It's a game where you build burgers as per the toppings the customers want and then package them and send them out. I think it gets overlooked because it starts out very simple and slow paced and if you don't know how to bounce burger toppings back (holding the fire button when touching them) then you just end up failing hard, but once you know what you're doing it can get pretty intense! :B

My favorite game is centipede but I have so much nostalgia for pole position because it was the one game my dad would play all the time with me. Even when we got up into later consoles with better graphics if there was a pole position game my dad always wanted to play it. I miss my dad and I guess that's why Pole Position probably means more to me than even my favorite games like centipede.

Dragster would make my list. It was a great two-player competitive game. It had serviceable graphics and sound. Its control scheme was excellent for the simple controller, and the simulation of engine torque vs. the mechanical advantage of each gear vs. track speed vs. overrev (blown engine) was simply brilliant, particularly on the primitive hardware. And it had a simple way to measure success and "best score." It was also the ONLY videogame my father ever played -- and he was excellent at it.

It is just the tanks, but there is trees, roads, rivers, and they affect weapons fire differently. It is a lot of fun.

Kaboom! was the original Tetris. I will never forget waking up early as a little kid (~4) and finding my mom at the Atari after pulling an all nighter on it! The one issue I have with it is it must be played with the paddle. So it was utterly impossible to play on those throw back compilation packs (looking at you PS1 disc!). I'd also add Star Master to the list. It was one of the later games released on the system and felt so much bigger and more advanced than all those classic arcade ports. It was also the only (?) Atari game we'd go back and play AFTER having the NES, because it just held up.

I’d have to add Asteroids and Pitfall II.

I know it was limited technology but man, still can't help but wish games like Jungle Hunt or Pheonix or any of those types of games were a little bit longer instead of just repeatable 2-3 levels.

Someone actually remade Adventure, with 16 bits graphics, for windows. Pretty fun actually. EDIT: also, a very unknown game, but my very favorite from back in the day is Bobby Is Going Home.

Missle Command 2600 is the best version even without tracking. Best 2600 game in my opinion Breakout and night driver, 2 great paddle games. Wizard of wor, top 5 Atari games, better than Bezerk. Chopper Command best Atari shooter The original pacman, still my favorite. Asteroids better than arcades
