Hey ma, I made it into a pic! For about two seconds. In the background of a shot. Still counts, correct?
Last week I went to a special advance screening of Zak Penn's Microsoft-produced documentary Atari: Game Over, which centers around the E.T. landfill dig I attended in Alamogordo, New Mexico earlier this year.
For the uninformed: Dorsum in 1983 the video game industry crashed and burned, and a pretty terrible game adaptation of Spielberg's Eastward.T. took (equitably or undeservedly) a large office of the blame. On its last legs, Atari was forced to dump millions of unsold and returned cartridges of the E.T. video game into a landfill—or so the legend goes. For years, this was one the gaming industry's biggest urban legends, like a video game El Dorado.
Making history
In light of its cult legend status, the short-lived Microsoft Entertainment Studios helped fund a coiffure to dig up Due east.T.'s grave earlier this year and invited the public to come. I drove down to attend the effect, along with a couple hundred others, and we stood in the whipping dirt and wind quite literally watching garbage exist dug up.
Atari: Game Over takes the dig as its centerpiece, chronicling both the lead-upward to the dig and the actual day of reckoning. As someone who attended (read: suffered through) the actual dig, I can say that the sections in Alamogordo do a decent job of capturing the feel of the event—or as much as they can through the safety and condolement of a movie screen. I can't emphasize enough how dusty and windy it was that twenty-four hours in Alamogordo. I had a spare t-shirt tied around my face, and all the same I left that day feeling like I'd swallowed nearly a liter of trash-dust.
The film doesn't linger long on the actual dig though, which I think is a approval. The actual process that day was excruciating—half-dozen hours in the boiling New Mexico summer sun, waiting for some sort of announcement. There wasn't much to expect at, nor much to do. The motion picture misses out on some of the "party" atmosphere of the mean solar day (people were playing Eastward.T. on CRTs in the back of cars) and I think the film too skims over how varied the attendees were, but Atari: Game Over has a more important story to tell.
Redemption song
More than a motion picture about the dig itself, Atari: Game Over is a redemption piece for Howard Scott Warshaw, the programmer on E.T. Prior to East.T., Warshaw was an Atari legend. The man designed Yars' Revenge and Raiders of the Lost Ark, both of which were instant classics for the 2600. He was then skillful that when it came time to make an E.T. video game in a mere 5 weeks, they went straight to Warshaw. And Warshaw said information technology would be no trouble.

He underestimated, of course, and E.T. was a mess of a game that satisfied basically nobody. But the film's primary signal (and I agree) is that it wasn't Warshaw's fault. He had to plough effectually a blockbuster game past himself in an unreasonable corporeality of time. Non only that, but he did churn out a game under those ridiculous constraints, admitting a game that wasn't great.
The gaming industry needed its pinata though, and Warshaw's E.T. made a convenient target. Warshaw'south never fabricated another game, and a large portion of Atari: Game Over is dedicated to his viewpoint—what it's similar for him to visit the former Atari offices, for example, or what it's like for him when the first Eastward.T. cartridges are dug upward in Alamogordo.

A film solely about the Alamogordo dig would exist interesting in its ain manner, but I think unremarkable. After all, this is a story most earthworks up trash. Warshaw puts a human confront on the whole debacle, and his participation (and the absurd exploits of Fix Thespian One writer Ernest Cline) makes this the all-time video games documentary since Indie Game: The Picture show.

Information technology helps that there'due south a real respect for the subject area matter here. Unlike the tone-deaf mess that is Video Games: The Movie, manager Zak Penn clearly has a love for the topic that shines through without making him the focus of the whole movie. Atari: Game Over provides a great (if abbreviated) look at the origins of both the gaming industry and Silicon Valley culture, and it does then while simultaneously staying low-cal and humorous. Guiding you through it all is Penn's frequently hilarious narration, which easily garnered the biggest laughs at our screening.
Bottom line
I'm quite serious when I say this is one of the all-time video game documentaries ever made. That'south still a pretty niche field, but Atari: Game Over belongs up there with Indie Game: The Movie and King of Kong as a existent standout.
It'southward piece of cake to rag on the dig itself. "Why carp digging up trash? Who even cares if the games are buried there?" Simply trust me, spotter the movie and watch Howard Scott Warshaw. This isn't a story nigh a trash heap, really. This is a story virtually a guy whose career was ruined by one stupid mistake of a game, and watching him come up to grips with it three decades later.
My biggest complaint is that the documentary is slated for release only on the Xbox One at beginning, as per the terms of Microsoft's funding. I hope the movie makes its way over to other platforms soon, because this one deserves to be seen past other people. Information technology'southward enough to make me wish Microsoft Entertainment Studios hadn't crumbled—the gaming industry deserves more warm, inclusive documentaries like this.
Now if y'all'll alibi me, I'm pretty sure I tin notwithstanding taste that gourmet Alamogordo trash-dust in my month six months after the fact.
