  • ooh yeah  had this game on my HC 91 had to load it with a data tape recorder or something

  • the engine sounds like my blender! XD

  • These are the greatest video games of all time and even back then they were affordable.Im still on a PS2 since the damn 3 is still too spendy.Im leaning towards finding a coleco vision and get all the classics again..

  • @rattlinurcage3 good choice man, i love colecovision i have about 200 games

  • We've come a long way. I got this game in 1987 when I was 11. Loved it. I also had Krazy Kopter, Caverns of Kafka, Lone Raider, Ninja, War Copter, Milk Race, Slinky, Eastern Front, etc. I had an Atari 800XL with 64KB RAM. The software was on tape and you need to load it using what they called a program data recorder. It'd take forever to load.

  • Man should I get dead rising 2? Meh... Fallout new Vegas?ehh... Or POOOOLE POSITION!

  • i used to love this game

  • Man this takes me all the way to 1984!

  • I used to play this game in the 80's....lmao.

  • This game still kicks ass today!

  • This takes me back as a 6 year old.

  • 3:40 - 3:45 oLdSkOoL sKiLlZ dude! love the doppler sound effect that sounds like a car horn lol. My favourite 2600 game was Combat. Tanks with guided shells (eat ya heart out wii) and bi-plane dog fights!

  • The sound effect that plays when your car passes other cars?

  • yep, sounds like a horn instead of an engine

  • Great game, but this video loses a star from me cos of the interlace issues.

  • Best tire schreeching sound ever!

  • considering games that I played for the atari had like 6-10 pixels per object in the game lol this is pretty good.

  • Guys, should I buy this or Forza Motorsport 3?

  • I'd get this.

  • this has more realism and better graphics

  • mm where can i download the rom of pole position for atari xe?

    ( i´m sorry for my english, i speak spanish)

  • Pole position on the atari 5200 is better then the atari 2600,pole position on the atari 2600 sucks.

  • i used to have this arcade machine!

  • omg guys. remember when those were the best graphics ever? LOL

  • Great days

  • My first game on Atari 65XE.  Spent hours with it! Great good old days!

  • I remember playing this on the Atart 5200. My brother still has the game system, but we have not played these games in over 25 years. Classic.

  • i used to play this when i was younger

  • You're pretty good!

  • Dude... Give the 80's a break, they were doing what they could with the given hardware.

  • How does landing on the Moon have to do with Pole Position? It's not a comparison, they're each their own little thing.

  • when i was kid a played this game every day,, now it scars me,, yes i weigh 372 pounds,,

  • I can't vouch for the person who posted this, but I have this game on Cart for the 2600.

    One of my all time favourites.

  • I always thought it was lame that the car would explode just from hitting a road sign.

  • omg lol i remember this game back in the day it was fucking sweet

  • MY EARS!

  • I LOVE THIS!

  • Wow, I used to play this game all the time. Good memories...

  • OMG, i used to have the same system like you do (same game too). Dude, you just brought a tear to my eyes! I used to play this game a LOT with my sis and my dad. I used to have "karate" and Hardball. Those were the days. Sniff.

  • I remember beating this game once

    after of hundreds of tries.

  • omfg the atari actually had good games!!

  • yes it did

  • like pitfall! and pitfall 2

  • I must've played this game to death back in the day! What bugs me about it is that considering how fast the track colours come towards you, the bends still come up slowly by comparison.

  • This is one of the few games that worked better with the Atari 5200 analog controller.

  • Where it all began!!!

  • hated this game i still played it tho lol

  • I had this game for the 5200. It seems beyond primitive now but 25 years ago, it was cutting edge.

  • I had this for the Atari 5200. Unfortunately Ido not have it anymore.

  • Two of the greatest words.."extended play" :D

  • I was waiting for the "Prepare to Qualify" LOL

  • wtf are these guys that yer passing if you started in pole position? hehe

  • lol used to always laugh EVEN THEN at the 'HOUSES' comin towards u .... this game seems newer than what i had.... the other cars were just pure yellow blocks that didnt seem to be moving... this must have been the elite edition... ha

  • play this game countless times......ahhhh the memories

  • yo soy mas rapido qe tu...i run more

  • Dude, clean your Atari MAN

  • weird how the road doesn't go to the edge on the left, and the weird sky characters on the right! of course, overscan hid all this on old tv's....

  • Hehe, Jos Verstappen!

  • Great Game

  • awesome

  • Wow I can't believe I used to play this shit.

  • One of my favs

  • Sorry, looked wrong, it is mentioned that this ist the Atari OOPS !!! :S
