Put it back, dear god put that crap back in the trash. Though centipede may be salvageable.

ET, the game that made no sense. That was a fucking awful game. Following those damn dots around that were supposed to be Reese's pieces.

I remember playing it at a friends after all the hype of the movie. Good god it was so confusing. Neither one of us had a clue what the hell we were doing or supposed to do.

That may be the worst game in the history of video games.

Tight race between that and adventure...once you unlocked the gate with the key the duck killed you if you didnt kill the dragon and move the square block into the corner


(No punctuation, because thats how the game played....)

But yeah ET made no sense either. Youd build that damn phone, click the only button to phone home and youd transport to a weird place on the map GRRRR

I think you'd have to give it to E.T. simply for setting the precedent of licensing movie rights to make god-awful video games.

Set before then by Mattel who would license anything to get games. here are some:

American Backgammon Players Association for their Backgammon game.
U.S. Chess Federation for their Chess game
Kool-Aid Man
The Jetsons
Woody Woodpecker
The Electric Company
Scooby Doo
Jack LaLanne

Talk about a flashback to age 13. I had many 2600 games but never did own ET. Maybe I lucked out. Though I did have Adventure.

I enjoyed Adventure, but I'm with everyone on ET being a horrible game.
