I had Freeway, Kaboom, Starmaster, and Grand Prix for my Atari and Pitfall II and H.E.R.O. for my Commodore 64. I also have Activision Anthology. Activision made leaps and bounds in the video game industry by becoming one of the first third party developers for a home game system, and giving proper credit to their designers, a formality that continues today in advanced forms.

@Antithos To be fair, a lot of home video games were rip-offs of arcade games back in the day. Tons of Pac-Man, Frogger, Space Invaders, Donkey Kong, and Q*Bert clones. A truly original game back then was a diamond in the rough, much like today.

Activision used to be SO AWESOME. Now they're publishing ridiculous games like Call of Duty.

The game @ 5:44 will cause a seizure for sure!

activision where brains are as rare as hens teeth

@Antithos I don't think Crane did steal the idea. Rather, whoever made Frogger and Crane himself had the same idea at around the same time (it happens). In fact, Freeway was supposed to be Bloody Human Freeway, with a guy getting splattered along the freeway in gory (as far as the 2600 was concerned) detail. Frogger, however, is the better game, I must admit that.

i love that loud sound at the end in every commercial after they said ''by activision''

Extraodinary graphics and incredibly realistic action? lol!
Didn't take much to impress people in those days.

ah so this is how evil was born.......
Steal the idea for Frogger and replace it with a chicken and you've got a completely new game! I see Activation's method of innovation hasn't changed much over the years...
