  • Yars revenge on Atari 2600.
  • Kaboom on 2600.
  • Pitfall on 2600.
  • Myst on classic Mac.
  • Dark Castle classic Mac.
  • Diablo 1.
  • Star Wars Dark Forces.
  • That weird Ayn Rand utopia in the sky Bioshock sequel on any platform.
  • The Star Wars Battlefront game that came out around rogue one on Xbox until the developer started tweaking with it and it became a griefer’s paradise.
  • Gauntlet arcade and home versions. So fun to play as co-op.
  • Ms Pac Man arcade.
  • Tempest arcade.

And a shout out to Arashi, which was a great classic mac homage to Tempest.

I had a 7800 with custom bios and ram cart and would play a kaboom hack that started at max difficulty and ramped from there

a lot of early 2000s 2600 homebrews would probably make my list but Thrust+ is the GOAT

I find helldivers has that gauntlet vibe.

Atari 2600 gamez! Very cool. I still have my 2600 and the TV I used when I was a kid. Both still work.

Also, so glad someone put arcade games on their list.
