This cut is missing Montezuma's Revenge. Need to fix & re-upload. What are the best games to play on your Atari 2600? That's a big question that can be pretty tough to answer, but using my own past ranking videos as a guide, I'm gonna give it a shot. Over the past few years I've been steadily working my way through every game released for the Atari VCS and ranking them from 'S' for 'superb' all the down to 'F' for pbpbbptttt. And while I haven't yet MADE it through every game, across more than a dozen videos and evaluating hundreds of cartridges, we're making good progress. #atari #retrogaming #ranked #genxgrownup - LINKS Atari 1977 » https://youtu.be/wYCfURUbbtQ Activision A » https://youtu.be/hP-KqIfzlHQ Activision B » https://youtu.be/g43F5ui4v0w Imagic » https://youtu.be/DOJ4di_W0KA Parker Brothers » https://youtu.be/fKFjwZ7ec2E Coleco » https://youtu.be/BmY4tgUq97E Adults-Only » https://youtu.be/XjJ2gqZNpls 20th Century Fox » https://youtu.be/v422sT9cOsY M Network » https://youtu.be/x4NXxoKd6_o US Games » https://youtu.be/tyKoKuAjVDE Atari 1978 » https://youtu.be/o-UB7aWKjsU Atari 1979 » https://youtu.be/5iXNMzRciwM Atari 1980 » https://youtu.be/XZIRZvwJ_NU Atari 1981 » https://youtu.be/ZlBRbsCsRbI - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Best Atari Games? 01:18 Adventure 03:01 Alien 03:59 Asteroids 05:06 Astroblast 06:10 Bowling 07:09 Breakout 07:59 Cosmic Ark 08:57 Crackpots 09:30 Demon Attack 10:56 Frogger II Threedeep! 11:48 Frostbite 12:34 H.E.R.O. 13:07 Kaboom! 14:07 Megamania 14:44 Missile Command 15:53 Montezuma's Revenge 16:53 Mouse Trap 18:00 Pitfall! 18:36 Q*Bert 19:41 Roc'N Rope 21:08 Space Invaders 22:22 Star Wars: Empire Strikes Back 23:34 Starmaster 24:17 Superman 26:10 Turmoil 27:24 Summary

Visit ALAN-1 ? https://alan-1.com Gravitar Recharged is Alan-1’s third adaptation of the Atari Recharged series of games, bringing them from home consoles and updating them into commercial arcade titles. We did not just take the console versions and put them into a cabinet – we’ve greatly adjusted and enhanced the software to ensure that these games operate properly for arcades. Exclusive arcade features will be found below. Gravitar was first released to arcades in 1982, being among some of the last “vector” arcade games created for the market. It shared some similarities with Asteroids, but was considered one of the most challenging games of its time, as players had to not only battle enemies in space, they also had to work against gravity. In the game, you are piloting a lone starfighter, first in a solar system where you select which planets you want to explore, battling enemies, watching out for gravitational effects, along with your fuel level. Collect fuel canisters to keep the fight going! The game didn’t see many console ports nor did it receive any sequels until 2022, when current day Atari brought it back in the form of Gravitar Recharged. This maintained the original spirit of the arcade game, where you still start off in a solar system view, flying to one of the orbiting planets to complete an objective. These objectives are more clear now, such as destroying a certain number of enemies, activating beacons, or collecting enemy intelligence. Completing a system is still achieved by destroying the reactor planet. As with the arcade editions of Asteroids Recharged and Missile Command: Recharged, we have taken the console game and have reworked various elements so that it operates for the demands of today’s arcade market. This includes rebalanced gravity, named galaxies to explore, a zoomed out solar system view, restoring the green outlines on the rocks for that vector look, arcade controls (five buttons), cabinet toy effects, and Major League eSports support. To play, the controls are similar to Asteroids Recharged or the original Gravitar arcade game. Use the ROTATE RIGHT and ROTATE LEFT buttons to change the direction of your ship: Thrust to move forward; Fire to shoot; Shield/Tractor Beam to activate that dual feature, which can suck in items like power-ups and fuel tanks, while also blocking shots from attackers. Note that there various power-ups which will give you a temporary advantage. Gravitar Recharged will be available in both PRO and PRO+ models, which supports two players simultaneously through the two sets of controls. These also offer “toys” such as wind blowers, rumble motors, and a pinball knocker. #retrogaming #prge2025 #gravitar #genxgrownup - LINKS Alan-1 » https://alan-1.com PRGE » https://www.retrogamingexpo.com/ - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com
