      It was publicly recorded it was a landfill with a bunch of games from old Atari. Complete with news coverage and articles of the event as it was happening.

      It was an urban legend long before the internet. I grew up hearing about it and reading it in video game magazines (back when those were still a thing). The documentary Atari: Game Over does a great job covering it, along with the rise and fall of Atari.

    • @CSLucasEpic
      @CSLucasEpic 3 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Why is that strange? The same practice happens in the west. If a programmer/designer invents a character while working for a corporation, the character belongs to the corporation, not the person that made it. Harvey Ball, the guy that invented the "Have a nice day" smily face, never made a dime in royalties for any t-shirt, sticker, whatever, made with it. Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, the guys that invented Superman, were basically fired from DC comics, and except on being acknowledged as the inventors of the character, didn't get any royalties from it. All the rights to Superman belong to DC comics.
      The only difference in the USSR was that every corporation and entity was government owned, so whatever you invented working for said corporations was owned by the USSR government. That's the only real difference between east and west of the iron curtain.

    How the hell is Too Human not on this list? It's the biggest copout since Fable III. We all know that the ambition was high for that game. Norse Mythology in a Sci Fi setting sounded like the ultimate geek fantasy! Aaaand it was mocked mercilessly for its bad controls and we found out that Silicon Knights was using a pirated Unreal Engine 3. A huge lawsuit ultimately destroyed the game, making Silicon Knights mass recall the game before all unsold retail copies were wiped out of existance. Yipee...
    (Note: I originally said it ran off a stolen Unity Engine. Maybe the fact that they both start with "U" threw me off. What do I know about game making machines, eh?)

      To be honest, it was only the unsold Xbox 360 games using the pirated Unreal Engine 3 that was recalled and destroyed, which had a much lesser impact and made for a much less interesting story than any of the games on this list. Also, Larry tend to stick to the lesser known stories... except for ET for some reason.
