I have to wonder after reading some of these replies: How many of you actually played, no struggled through this game as a kid? Because I did. I'm telling you, it really is that bad. I mean seriously: THOSE FUCKING HOLES!!!

I had it as a kid. I didn't know it was a bad game. I never figured it out. I just wandered until I fell in those effin holes.

Random Terrain, one of the biggest defenders of E.T. over at AtariAge made a nice video tutorial on escaping the pits.
Also has a few pages dedicated to the game.  Still do not care for it much myself, but not a terrible game.

Digital Press had a nice series of videos titled "Ten Atari 2600 Games Worse Than E.T.", but they appear to be privated now. :-\

I know I had said in a previous post that I had beaten the game when I was a kid, but such the achievement came at a price of broken controllers.  So yeah, I know ALLLLLLLL about those damn holes....
