i dont go after racing much, to tell the truth. theyre pointless after you beat the AI in the hardest mode. unless you can get some good, REAL players, they get old fast.

it IS true that Big Rigs has better graphics, but there isnt too much else. AQ isnt an interactive game in my opinion. all you can really do is keep clicking spells and "attack". even their newer DragonFable is better. at least you can move around (moving is also limited).

what is wrong with Custer's Revenge?

ooh, i see your point. graphics absolutely suck (but then ... when does Atari's graphics NOT suck?).
and the gameplay sounds stupid, based on Wikipedia's description.

but i WILL NOT paste the description on here.

just looked it up. the characters look like badly made shapes. and the gameplay/theme looks like a kindergartener's idea of entertainment.

... what IS the theme anyways?
oh, wait. let me guess ... ET needs to get to the boy, or vice versa, right?

How come the Atari 2600 ported PAC-MAN is not on the list?
As far as I can tell, it is a classic, but it also was a fail in my book.
And if ET is there, this one should be as well.

Ok, you misunderstood me. Google made a flash version of the original arcade PAC-MAN. I mentioned the PAC-MAN that was ported to the Atari 2600 that was nothing like the arcade version (except the main concept) and thus a failure.

Fight your way through the few first boooooorriiiinngg regions. From 'drownington cove' it gets much better. But be careful with money(fuel) only buy vehicles when you really need them. So don't go and buy all monstertrucks first(for example) and if you unlock a 'maverick' hunt those down first as they give you very nice vehicles.

U may use helicopter by pressing enter when your cursor is on tje heli platform at the map.

Good luck and try to have fun

Of those listed, ET is the worst. Other good examples of poor games I can think of are Custer's Revenge for the Atari and Catfight for the PC.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catfight_(video_game)

A couple other standouts:
bible adventures (NES)
Silver Surfer (NES)
