“River Raid” stands out to me as the most actually fun Atari 2600 game.
Despite having awkward controls, “Combat” is also fun due to couch multiplayer. “Jungle Hunt” is similar to Pitfall but faster. I also managed to spend a lot of time playing the 2600 version of Asteroids, but I don’t know if it actually holds up.
- MisterBastahrd 4y agoYep. Anybody hating on Combat never played Combat the way it was meant to be played. I treated it as the game you just put to the side as a kid because we were too busy playing Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Breakout, Chopper Command, Galaga, Galaxian, Defender, Adventure, Vangard, etc. But once you've played Empire Strikes Back ten dozen times and the fun of shooting glowing pixels on the backs of AT-ATs wears off... Combat was still there and took almost zero explanation for how to play.
- progmetaldev 4y agoI really loved playing Vangard when I was younger. The multi-level types and fast-paced action really drew me in.
