My mom worked for a company that made chips inside the Atari cartridges and so we got a free VCS/2600 and a bunch of carts when they came out. Tank was, hands down, the best game! My brother and I spent hours really interacting with each other over the incredibly simple, blocky graphics. The "tanks" were made up of about 5 giant pixels. That's it! The planes were even worse and didn't look like planes at all. We had more fun competing and really playing with those terrible graphics.
I wonder if all the high-end game qualities today take away some of that genuine player interaction? I do love modern games and I doubt I'd enjoy Tank today, but it was special in its time.
