The Worst Video Game Ever

Okay, I have played many video games, but i just haven't played E.T. Now all of you must be wondering why E.T? Well that's because it is the Worst Video Game that has been ever made and i am intrigued to find out what was so bad in it that made the creator's a big bunch of losers. They went bankrupt in a single day and all the people who have played this game are still mad at it because it cost them a lot to buy the game.



Yahoo! has compiled a list of the worst video games to ever hit the gaming industry and E.T is among them. I am a big fan of the movie that Steven Spielberg made, but hey i want to play this game and see how it feels to play the worst game ever made. Reportedly the game maker had to suffer almost $50m in losses.

Yahoo! says "No list of video game flops would be complete without the game that's widely credited with causing the great videogame crash of 1983. Atari paid somewhere around $25 million for the movie license, then had their programmers hammer out a game in a mere five weeks. The video games industry celebrated its release by disappearing into a recession that took years to cure, and Atari was broken up and sold just a year later. E.T. is still remembered as the worst game ever made. Still, if that hasn't put you off (perhaps you are a masochist or otherwise insane) head for the desert and start digging: untold millions of unsold E.T. cartridges were dumped in an Alamogordo, New Mexico landfill where they remain to this day. Best place for 'em."
