E.T is the abomination of gaming!! Even the most brave people turn their heads away at this mess. I would rather play Ninja Gaiden 2 blind folded and tie up then ever again play that horrible game. Pac-man is awesome an will always be a classic.

E.T. is kinda like Dr.Jekyll and Mr. Hyde for the NES. I'm not sure if it's a good game, a bad game, or even a game in general, due to the odd layout, controls, lack of conveyance, and confusing graphics and game play. Maybe it's a good game, maybe it's a horrifying monstrosity of a game, I just don't know what the heck is going on.

I still believe that Pac-Man on the Atari 2600 was the main cause of the North American video game crash of 1983, rather than E.T.
I don't think E.T. is the absolute worst game ever made, but it definitely ranks up there.

I didn't even notice all the replies since I posted this. I'm glad the majority agrees. E.T. is more boring, but Pac-Man (Atari, of course) is repulsive to look at and play. Even when I was 3 and only had an Atari and NES, I hated it, lol.

Pac-Man Championship Edition DX is amazing. I didn't get it until I got my PS3, which was sometime last year. Addictive and colorful, two things I enjoy in games. c:

In my opinion, China Syndrome is MORE WORST than E.T and Pac-Man. That game is just boring, unoriginal and annoying.

PacMan on 2600 is one of the worst games I have ever played. Way worse than ET. The thing is they took a great game and just completely butchered the port on it...They took one of the most popular games at the time and just completely ruined the port.

I looked up more and found out that not only did the programmer have to rush the game, but he did not like Pac-Man so he did a bad job on it.

I heard that the programmer was forced to make it in limited time, but seriously? He didn't like Pac-Man? Who doesn't?  Anyway, Pac-Man was a ok port, but e.t was way better.

Really? I mean, Pac-Man was really bad for the Atari but I still can't even compare it to E.T. I mean, that was so bad that I could play it for about three minutes, before I get so mad that I want to smash my computer. With Pac-Man, I can at least get through the first level before I'm bored of it.

No, PacMan is better. I can't even stand a few minutes of E.T, but PacMan for Atari I like and play a lot. Maybe it's my tendency to like bad games, because I love Action 52 and everyone else hates it sooo much...

The Atari 2600 Version of Pac Man was by far worse than ET. They took a great game and just crapped all over it. No reason it needed to be as bad as it was. I agree and have been saying the same thing for years.

I agree with you, they both suck. But Pac-Man at least gives you a chance (even if the controls are terrible). Plus, it's Pac-Man. Everybody knows what to do (Get the pellets, don't let the ghosts get you, etc.). E.T. just throws you in, and you have no idea what to do. Oh, and I haven't checked for a walkthrough, and I don't think there is one. So good luck beating E.T.

Yeah this port of Pac-Man really does suck. It looks really ugly. All the other versions of Pac-Man that I've seen actually have Pac-Man face up and down! But this version only shows him facing left and right! I think Atari was in a big rush when they made this. Other than that, there is absolutely no excuse to take one of the most famous video games of all time and ruin it on the Atari 2600. The Atari 5200 version is a lot better, fortunately.

Meh, i still believe this game is utterly horrible, but DON'T YOU DARE SAY E.T IS BETTER THAN IT. E.T CAUSED THE goshdarn VIDEO GAME STOCK MARKET CRASH. Gameplay-wise, Pac-Man is worse, but it's also a port. What do you expect, really?

I don't know about that I actually find Pacman to be very addicting even though all you do is guide through the screen to defeat ghosts and collect fruit to attempt to beat someone's high score.
