Water Water Everywhere

Wow, the games for the Atari 2600 are really crappy. Flash stuff from the early 90s was better. Today's creators could barf up a better game in their sleep.

Things Covered

  • Asterix
  • Canada is still part of North America and how they didn't see Taz
  • Popeye
  • The Smurfs, 1.5 times because a second "game" barely counts
  • Spider-Man
  • Superman
  • Snoopy
  • The general crappyness of the 2600 and why I'm not holding it against these games too much
