Can't guarantee the accuracy of the statement (IMO today's mobile freemium games are far worse), but that's what BBC picked for the title of an interview with Howard Scott Warshaw, programmer of ET: http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-35560458 I actually listened to the interview live on BBC World Service radio, but the article contains some nice photos. Edit: found the audio version: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03j4c0y |

---fudgesicle--- that. Pure garbage. He fully deserves the ridicule he got, and if he'd shut up about it he'd realize the world quit caring 20 years ago. |

Warshaw was only given about five weeks to develop ET in time for the 1982 Christmas season. Cut the guy some slack. ....just kidding. That game was abysmal. Kids are pumping out better iPhone games today, in less time. |
