Video Olympics Atari VCS (2600) Review
Released in 1978 as one of the Atari VCS's initial launch titles. For its time it was pretty awesome because it took a basic Pong style game and added different variations to it. Mediocre by today's standards but pretty cool back then. I just attempted to play it and realized that my paddle controllers are not functioning correctly. Nonetheless, the basic concept of what the game is was translated to me as I remember it. Hit a square ball back and forth and try to score on your opponent. A fun 2 player game to mess with but nothing epic going on here. Overall, I give it a 5 out of 10. Atari is very hard to rate due to the huge amount of crappy games but this one stands the test of time. It does what it is intended to do. Pong with multiple variations.
