Rampage and Xenophobe for the Atari 2600!

As we begin to count down the clock to Halloween and squeeze out the last remaining hours, here are two more videos to enjoy!

Rampage for the Atari 2600



First up is a video of the Atari 2600 homeport version of Rampage. It amazes me what people can manage to squeeze out of the black and woodgrain box from the 1970's. Rampage being an ideal Halloween game was a perfect fit for me to track down and give a go to see if it translates at all to the Atari 2600.

Xenophobe for the Atari 2600



Next is a video of Xenophobe. This has to be one of the last games released for the Atari 2600 (released in 1990!). It is crazy not only that they made a port of Xenophobe on the Atari 2600, but that they did so, so beyond past the system's prime. Xenophobe fits in the sci-fi horror realm with the obvious influences from the Alien franchise.

Hope you enjoy these two extra Halloween videos. Bonus points if you turn them into drinking games. Take a shot every time I say "amazing" and see if you are still able to stand!
