Lost both of my parents to COVID in April. I remember my father taking me and my brother to Sears to pick up the 2600. The sounds alone take me back to happy times, countless hours in front of the living room TV, Saturday mornings, snow days. This machine was magic. Thanks for the great post.

The car acceleration from Enduro stills one of more exciting sounds till now.

Yeah it sounds badass

[@AdamSpade]

Did you ever play Grand PRIX? In a blind fold test you might think they were the same game.

[@matoatlantis]

Actually I didn't know Activision did the Enduro first. I know only the improved version of it - The Great American Cross-Country Road Race. It seems it's the same "engine" with some extras. I loved that game. I played it on Atari 130XE.

[@lancelange9377]

I love Enduro! I came in third place in an Enduro tourney and won a t-shirt with the box art on it. Wish I still had it, even if it wouldn't come close to fitting anymore.

[@andrewryan9655]

I was waiting to hear Adventure. That was always my favorite. Glad Raiders made it to the honorable mention list.

[@waltersergio3032]

Mine too. It was misterious.. On those days...

[@Howdy606]

One of my favourites too. When you flicked the switch on the console (either difficulty or game reset), it slowed down the music to play some really cool crunchy sound).

[@101Volts]

Remember Keystone Kapers, too.

[@supershah101]

Berserk! is one of the best!!!

[@MattMcIrvin]

Back in the day my favorites were probably Missile Command, Asteroids, Space Invaders, original Breakout, Adventure, Video Pinball, Bowling, and, perhaps oddly, Miniature Golf. Today I've become fond of some I didn't have back then: Midnight Magic, Yars' Revenge, Star Voyager. And some modern games from the remarkably active 2600 homebrew scene.

[@b213videoz]

What? River Raid wasn't your favourite?

[@sandal_thong8631]

I went back to play Miniature Golf a few years ago, to see if I could improve my best score. I had marked where to put the cursor in the manual to get a chance to make a hole-in-one. I succeeded, but couldn't beat the logbook challenge for Golf. With the good graphics in Activision games, it's too bad they didn't make a version instead of making their own version of checkers.

The music and the sound effects give me flashbacks of playing for hours with best friends sleepover parties playing Atari, watching horror movies Benny Hill, and Saturday Night Live. I remember getting chip grease on the controllers trying to beat the high score with your buddies. I liked ice hockey, football, Raiders of the Lost Ark, jungle hunt, river raid, track and field, astroids and frogger. Good times!

[@brentmiller6237]

All of this was bringing back a lot of fondness for the past, but then you mentioned Benny Hill. Maybe it's good to just let time forget it all.

Thanks for uploading! I played almost all of them 35 years ago when i was a kid. Now It reminds me of how simple and enjoyable games are in those times. 🤩

River Raid was one of my favourite games on the Atari 2600! Also one that wasn't mentioned here was Asteroids! I never got to play the arcade version, but I loved the Atari port!

[@mr.business2922]

Neither was Solaris. Kinda surprising.

[@tempestfury8324]

Emulate it on MAME. Space Duel was an even better arcade game....same principal but with colored polygon shapes. Add to that a two-player game where you could be tethered together.....so when one player uses thrust, it's pulling you with them!

[@AdamSpade]

You and I are pals. River Raid will always be a favorite and Asteroids was such a hit that no list is complete without it. One of the vintage greats.

[@gregpearl748]

Kaboom deserves to be on this list. Stayed up plenty nights flipping the score on that one. LOVE IT.

Thanks for Pitfall and Riverraid... definitely 2 of my favorites. Also loved Video Pinball and Frogger

[@lurkerrekrul]

Some of my favorites; Tunnel Runner - Great 3D maze game. Other games tried to do 3D, but they were often a confusing mess. Tunnel Runner got it just right. I'd rate the game as perfect if they had managed to use a unique image for the back of the monsters, rather than using the same image for when they're facing you and when they're moving away. Starmaster - More playable than the 2600 version of Star Raiders. Phaser Patrol - Another Star Raiders clone for the Starpath Supercharger. Solaris - Impressive game. To be honest, I never got very far into it, but I enjoyed playing it. Robot Tank - Better than the 2600 Battlezone. The way the enemy tanks seemed to be 3D impressed me at the time.

Imagic Atlantis was a nice variation on Missile Command. Space Cavern was interesting, too. Galaxians came later, but it was really well adapted. I preferred it to Space Invaders. Stargate was also really well adapted. It looked a lot better than Defender. Also, Berserk is worth mentioning.

So lucky to have been a kid during the Atari days. Life was so simple. My parents bought me the Atari 2600 on Christmas 1980.

[@tempestfury8324]

Here's my list, based upon how much I enjoyed the games and how often I'd play them. Something most younger people don't realize is that in the late 70's and early 80's, no one called it the 2600...it was just Atari. Just like a few years later no one said NES, it was just Nintendo. Enough rambling (get off of my lawn!), here's my top 10: 10. Circus Atari 9. Space Invaders 8. Demon Attack 7. H.E.R.O. 6. River Raid 5. Stargate 4. Pitfall! 3. StarMaster 2. Yar's Revenge And...drum roll please... #1. Adventure - One my favorite albums is Queen The Game released in 1980 featuring....you guessed it, Dragon Attack. It was a perfect blend of music and technology. Now, go read a book!😃

[@MattMcIrvin]

Right, it wasn't branded the "Atari 2600" until there was an Atari 5200. It was officially the "Video Computer System", but that name wasn't informally used much either.

[@colinmerritt7645]

Sorry, that's not how I remember it. We called it the 2600 to differentiate from the Atari 400/800 computer line.

[@tempestfury8324]

@@colinmerritt7645 Perhaps you are older than me or worked in the industry. But no one I knew, as kids, called it the 2600, there was no reason to. If you had a "real" computer like the 400/800, TRS-80, or Apple II...that was understood. We didn't even call it the VCS. Nope just Atari. "Hey Johnny, follow me on our bikes after school and we can play Atari at my house," for example. No one was thinking Atari 400/800 because home computers were still rare.
