They pulled this game from the servers and distribution. Unless you bought a physical copy, there is no way you'll play it again.

I just love ET's face there at the end. It says EVERYTHING.

Reckon ‘sad’ and ‘happy’ should be reversed in this case.

More context on E.T.: The game was successful and sold well. The problem was Atari; in their hubris they made too many cartridges, and that cost an arm and a leg. This, combined with the licensing fees, bankrupted the company, and it started a chain reaction that crashed the western gaming industry.

For those who are unaware as to why the infamous E.T. game is considered so bad...
It was a guilty participant of the early 1980's video game crash, to the point copies of it were part of the landfill in New Mexico where Atari infamously dumped and buried a lot of unsold games and consoles.

As for the the explodey knife thing... I think that was one of Lennox's (green dude) abilities.

@Scarifar The green guy is from the recently deceased game Concord. You know, 8 years and USD 100M+ to make, only sold 25000 units and lasted 2 weeks before Sony pulled the plug.

The cloaked guy is ET from the old 1982 Atari game. Considered one of the worst games of all time.

At least Concord has a chance of returning as a setting, as Amazon's Secret Level show will have a Concord episode. Maybe it becomes good that way.
