You can't see anything, but that is the alleged video game dump.

I enjoyed the game as a child. I didn't think it was all that bad. I especially used to enjoy finding the dead flowers and bringing them back to life...and the noise you made when extending your neck was cool too.

Did you know they made the whole game in something like 6 months? That's probably one of the reasons for its poor showing.

Yes, 6 months in Atari 2D days was a long time to develop a game
I'm sure?

The game was officially rushed out for ET in the cinema which is why it ended up being so bad, then it was hyped up like a Sony marketing guy on speed, when it received TERRIBLE reviews and people hated it people stopped buying games and then CRASH

I was only just born then, little did i realise the whole world was crashing around me.

The only good bit about the film was when the kid said "Penis breath" or was what another film?

I thought they did it in like 6 weeks or something.

Well it was 6 weeks if you wanna believe Wiki but if you don't I'd love to see another source also I laugh at it still selling 1.5 million...still far from the 4 million made though.
