Now this awesome video brings back a lot of memories. I owned an Atari 800XL, followed by a 130XE, and the games gradually improved as the software houses improved their programming skills and discovered the true capabilities of the sound and graphics chips. I've worked out that I owned about 12 of the games from the list below. I'd completely forgotten about Chop Suey and Electra Glide. The latter by English Software featured stunning 3D graphics and really blew me away at the time. Pole Position was one of my all time favourite racing games, and although graphically dated when compared to later 8-bit racing games, the playability was still far better than most rivals. Here is the full list of games featured in the video. Some of these link to pages on this site giving further details and video clips, and in the case of Donkey Kong and Frogger you can play them, too! Panther Just spotted Crystal Castle on the list. Wow! Forgotten about that one, too. Another cracking game.
