    River Raid=Economic Stimulus Package neatly wrapped in an Atari cartridge! Genius!

  • gutterguy720:

    I used to play this when I was 3 or 4.
    The water was purple on my tv.
    I guess it was the Mississippi river.

    God damn it,I love this game!I just discovered it and I didn’t expect to have fun playing an Atari game,because I never actually liked that generation of games.Viva River Raid!

  • jordan178v:

    broke a few joysticks playing this game

  • duffman13045:

    wow now this brings back some serious nostalgia. as i was watching i started to remeber the patterns of what was coming up next, like when you had to slow down alot to be able to hit the ship infront of the bridge at a sharp angle. God i hate being old. id give anyting to go back to that time

  • nooblet911:

    thats some retro shooter right there

  • harleykman:

    Dear reviewer:

    This is not an Atari game – it’s Activision. And Cosmic Ark is not Activision – it’s Imagic.

    Story:

    Your mission is to score as many points as possible on the “River of No Return”, according to the game programmer Carol Shaw. She also adds that you should blow-up the fuel depots as you refuel, so you’ll get maximum points.

    Ohh… I just have the rainbow in mind everytime I hear activision :D Damn, Activision was great on the 2600… :)

  • harleykman:

    The rainbow did not arrive until 1983.

    Don’t believe? Just compare Pitfall (1982) without a rainbow and Pitfall 2 (1984) that has the rainbow. Basically they changed their logo.

  • Akantrex:

    As I first saw this game, i just thought WTF? An activision 2600 game cartridge without a rainbow?!? But this is one of my favorite games, it´s just fuckin awesome :)

  • kpa000:

    these are withtout a doubt some of the best and funniest reviews on the web. nice.

    it has to say something when i watch 5 minutes of looking at a light phaser just to hear you comment about it.

  • Vkmies:

    it had s few other little problems too. AVGN reviews it. check it out.

  • gnarly79:

    LOL that would have been a good thing! 7800 and 2600 were the best. 5200 had controller problems.

  • 1996jrb:

    One of the best on atari 2600

  • Reigam4:

  • sandmanxo:

    This is one of the 3 or 4 games from the 2600 that I really miss playing on a genuine atari. I think I might have to pick one up since my mom gave mnie away when I was 15 for reasons still unknown to me.
