Vanguard was the one I spent too much time on. That and Tron. Still waiting for the remake of it.

It's funny if you stacked up virtually every Atari 2600 game from 1977 to 1988, about 700 titles over a decade of gaming, it is still just barely breaks 2 megs.
Jeez, I remember having friends over to play it ... like four people doing Decathalon and really competing with this little pixil guy running a mile. Only his legs and the background move for 4 minutes of shaking the joystick without stop, 4 times!!
And fighting over who got to be Indiana Jones and who got to be the "inventory guy" whose only job it was to change the inventory item for Indy to use (who could then screw Indy by changing his parachute to his gun at the critical moment so he falls into oblivion ... haha).
Talk about a bygone era!
Still, good times, good times.
I liked Demon Attack (a lot like Phoenix) and good old Pitfall Harry, and spent time on those.
