"There is so much stuff they've pulled up. This is all just atari 2600 games."
Seriously, are you not even willing to read the very first post of this thread?
I'm only skeptical. Nothing more, nothing less.So basically, you have nothing to contribute to this thread. Why do you write here?
The Curse of E.T.'s Tomb is going to destroy us all.Oh got they opened it. The game industry will crumble now!

Can i have the right to be skeptical?
This story isn't as romantic as i thought. I always thought the rumour was that Atari took thousands of cartridges out to the desert and buried them in a random 'grave'.
I didn't realise they just put them in a rubbish landfill which is semi-normal really.
X1 isnt selling bad to be related to ET...cant find relation.
Thank you for explaining =) I thought it waas something to do with major nelson or something.
Have Atari commented on this?

The Atari of today is so far removed from the Atari of 1983, they pretty much aren't even the same company(aside from the name), so I don't see any real reason why they should.
Half the people in this thread thought it was a myth. It's pretty obvious why they did it. There's ample evidence that the burial took place, witnesses to the burial and witnesses to the excavation. It makes no sense for this to be a hoax.Well if this is true then it's very interesting and kinda cool. Personally I think they sold have left it alone. What's the point of this really?

I don't like how this is probably going to be part of Xbox one original programming. It's an interesting part of gaming that should be available to everyone.
Microsoft being behind this doesn't sit well with me for some reason. Not trying to gather a conspiracy but just doesn't sit right with me .

They really can't do no right no matter what they do can they with some people?, jesus.
Yes and they don't care anymore.Have Atari commented on this?

This is an awesome story in video history. Stop being a fanboy.
Atari released a really shitty game as a movie tie-in. Didn't sell, they threw it in the dumpster.
What's so interesting about it? I really don't see the appeal...
Fanboy? I own a Wii u, ps4, and Xbox one.
If Sony did this it wouldn't sit well either. Somehow I think it would be a conflict of interest. I said i think the story is cool and interesting.
I just hope it's not exclusive Xbox one content and they put the documentary on Netflix or something so anyone could watch it.
Well yeah i meant someone from Atari at the time.

Everyone? Netflix is a paywall too.
I'm glad they did it. Nobody else was willing or able to.
It's more of a defining moment of the North American crash in 83, when nobody was buying or making games like they were before and even the ones that did sell (ET and Pac-Man 2600 sold well initially) had sky high expectations that they could never meet.Atari released a really shitty game as a movie tie-in.

I wrote anyone, not everyone. A 7.99 paywall is much more accessible than 499.99.
if they dont want new theories/urban myths to begin, they should better show some close ups of a lot of boxes^^

It's a part of their Atari documentary.What's the point of this really?
It probably will be, but it's been written that it is planned for initial availability for both Xbox platforms and will likely be available on other services after a time. MS is funding it, after all.I don't like how this is probably going to be part of Xbox one original programming. It's an interesting part of gaming that should be available to everyone.
Why? MS is the only American console maker, just as Atari once was. I never once read that Ninty or Sony cared about or praised Atari, but influential people at Xbox have, like J Allard.Microsoft being behind this doesn't sit well with me for some reason.

Look it was a myth and apparently it's been proven to be true.
We haven't seen the documentary yet.
So yes people will be skeptable.
Hopefully it will all be settled. It's cool, fun , a bit pointless imo cause its more fun as a myth, but it's entertainment and I plan to watch it.
Cool story, but I hate seeing all that crap buried under ground. Landfills bug me ;P
I'm only skeptical. Nothing more, nothing less.

Howard Scott Warshaw. He's the guy that programmed E.T.
Everybody remembers him for E.T, but he is also the designer of Yar's Revenge.
