That reminds me, I need to try and find a playthrough for E.T., now I'm curious if the "game" can really be finished in 10 minutes :) Hehe classic comments guys.

All in all, if you know what to do it takes about 10 minutes to complete, which is nothing by today's standards but the games that didn't employ nearly endless loops, i.e. Pac Man, wasn't bad for the time, *IF* they had replay value. As this one obviously lacked. The waste of $15, in 1981!
