The No Swear Gamer Atari 2600 Reviews

THANK you  for mentioning there is a driving controller hack.  I'm going to give that a try.  Here it is if anyone else is interested:

You're welcome!

 

 

Hey, that artwork looks familiar!

 

I don't know what you're talking about! The race track lines are blue & white instead of red & white and the cars must be electric since they no longer emit exhaust. Clearly unique artwork. Atari corp would never be that cheap, right?   ;)

Hi Phil, I just want to say my daughter and I love your reviews! It's great to see someone on YouTube so devoted to reviewing titles on the 2600. I'm also thankful for the "no swear" part of your mission; it's great to be able to watch your reviews with my daughter without worrying about foul language or adult innuendo. CGR does a good job showing the Atari lots of love, but his scope is so wide it can be a while between Atari game reviews. Other retro YouTube channels just tend to ignore or rag on the Atari. So thanks, and I look forward to future reviews!

Wow!

Thanks SB! I have at least another hundred 2600 games, so that should mean a lot more reviews in the future (although I do want to cover more from other systems as well). Anywho, tell your daughter I said hello! I have 2 girls myself (and a boy and another girl on the way).

Congrats on the additions on the way! I'll also be sure to pass your hello along :-)

 

We were both glad to see 2600 Ghostbusters get some love in your review; it's been a must play Halloween game for us for a few years now. We're both dressing up as Ghostbusters for Halloween this year (she's dressed like the girls from the remake, I'm dressed like the guys from the original), so we've been playing all the Ghostbusters games, good and bad. I have to say I enjoy the Atari one more than the NES one; it's easier to forgive gameplay shortcomings on the Atari than the NES. It's definitely a game I wish I had a heavy or light sixer for though... Having to fumble with the difficulty switch on the 7800 is a bit of a pain.
