Film to reveal why Atari buried 1m copies of ‘worst video game ever’
A group of film-makers are hoping to get to the bottom of the mystery by digging up the concrete-covered site in search of the discarded copies of ET: The Extraterrestrial that Atari wanted to hide forever.
The game and its contribution to the demise of Atari have been the source of fascination for video game enthusiasts for 30 years and the search for the cartridges will be featured in a documentary about the biggest video game company of the early 1980s.
