My favourite Atari game? Probably Dragon Ball Z Budokai 1. The cutscenes in that were gorgeous.
Sisyphus @ Mar 17th 2008 11:21AM
Easily Master of Orion 2.

Any time I hear 'Atari', I can't help but think of the 2600. I may have to go with Space Invaders, but we'll see what I answer tomorrow after I have more time to think about it.

Transformers for ps2. Don't know why because it wasn't that great. But being able to transform at will was pure nostalgic fun.
Shadow31 @ Mar 17th 2008 11:23AM
My favorite Atari game would have to be... Gauntlet Legends.
Brandisis @ Mar 17th 2008 11:24AM
Q-Bert FTW
Jack @ Mar 17th 2008 11:24AM
Mmm. Mediocrity. Sign me up!
Brent Todd @ Mar 17th 2008 11:26AM
I hate to admit it, but I would have to say it is the worst Atari game in history too - E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. I had a copy of it through college, but then in one of the moves it got lost.
jbrun85 @ Mar 17th 2008 11:28AM
gauntlet! YES
SuperScurry @ Mar 17th 2008 11:31AM
Yar's Revenge for the 2600 :)
mgroves @ Mar 17th 2008 11:31AM
I always liked Warbirds on Atari Lynx.
umd1998 @ Mar 17th 2008 11:31AM
Gauntlet is my favorite Atari game!
jro @ Mar 17th 2008 11:32AM
Gauntlet Legends was by far the best Atari game I've ever played. Fantastic in the arcade, but pretty darn good on the N64, too.
Christopher Jones @ Mar 17th 2008 11:33AM
Pong. So simple and yet still fun.
Indiana Hoosier @ Mar 17th 2008 11:33AM
Also, an easy pick for me. I loved gauntlet legends
kevin @ Mar 17th 2008 11:33AM
Dig Dug, by a mile.
Myles @ Mar 17th 2008 11:34AM
Gauntlet is awesome!
Brandon @ Mar 17th 2008 11:35AM
actually, Dragon Ball Z Budokai
Daniel Milner @ Mar 17th 2008 11:36AM
I always loved playing Pit Fall when I had an Atari.
Phoenix Hawk @ Mar 17th 2008 11:36AM
Dragon Ball Z®: Budokai™
joel.ms1 @ Mar 17th 2008 11:37AM
As a kid I had a 2600 so im gonna have to go with Q-Bert
Jody Anthony (Good Eats Fanboy) @ Mar 17th 2008 11:37AM
Does Custer's Revenge count?
clintonleefuller @ Mar 17th 2008 11:37AM
pong... so addictive
Derek J @ Mar 17th 2008 11:39AM
Pong. It's so iconic of early gaming.
c_judicator @ Mar 17th 2008 11:39AM
I'm going to go old-school and say Q-Bert. But i definitely play the .hack games more often.
Garu @ Mar 17th 2008 11:40AM
One of my favorite Atari games is a arcade game called "Major Havoc" Awesome!
Paul @ Mar 17th 2008 11:40AM
hmmm...I like the old arcade stuff, but truly it may be Neverwinter Nights
Pippin @ Mar 17th 2008 11:41AM
Pong - you can't compete with it really.
josh @ Mar 17th 2008 11:41AM
Kaboom!
Steve @ Mar 17th 2008 11:41AM
Pitfall!
Jansperus @ Mar 17th 2008 11:42AM
Tempest 2000, obviously. It revolutionized the industry!
Ludakriss @ Mar 17th 2008 11:43AM
Old school Centipede.
Nick @ Mar 17th 2008 11:47AM
Paperboy all the way! Has anyone ever managed to beat that game?
Gemski @ Mar 17th 2008 11:47AM
Neverwinter Nights
BUD @ Mar 17th 2008 11:48AM
Backyard football for the wii.
Gary @ Mar 17th 2008 11:48AM
Megamania for the 2600
sean @ Mar 17th 2008 11:49AM
Gauntlet for me.
CARLOS @ Mar 17th 2008 11:50AM

Tigerboy91 @ Mar 17th 2008 11:52AM
Definitely Gauntlet Legends.
Jeremy @ Mar 17th 2008 11:53AM
I have very fond memories of playing pacman on my 2600. Those were the days. Hopefully I can win this for my children!!
Xboxbydegrees @ Mar 17th 2008 11:54AM
The game that I always wanted to play was the one that they made for the movie The Last Starfighter. It looked amazing for that time period.
Superman on the 2600 was my favorite
pogoman @ Mar 17th 2008 11:55AM
Centipede. I remember growing up playing that game...
Mark Sypniewski @ Mar 17th 2008 11:59AM
Gauntlet, i love chopping ghosts, except i don't understand how you can actually do something like that.
ThekonamiMan @ Mar 17th 2008 12:02PM
My favorite Atari game of all time is Tempest. I just love the game and I couldn't believe it when I got the first place score on a local machine.
Alex @ Mar 17th 2008 12:03PM
Combat for the 2600!
Steven @ Mar 17th 2008 12:04PM
Xevious...was that Atari??? I loved that game! Zaxxon too!
DiddlyKong @ Mar 17th 2008 12:04PM
I'm gonna say Gauntlet. It's a classic.
eli314 @ Mar 17th 2008 12:05PM
Galaga was the best!!
ninjabot @ Mar 17th 2008 12:06PM
"Favorite Atari game" is pretty broad. They published Neverwinter Nights, which is one of my favorite PC games of all time. I loved how customizable everything was and how much player-created content was available.
Vogelfrei @ Mar 17th 2008 12:07PM
I'm going to have to go with my avatar, and say Adventure.
