I had video chess - was really disappointed with it because the screen went blank during the computer's think time. Knowing how the 2600 works now I can see why it had to be like that but it was a downer at the time. I used a chess set and duplicated the moves on that. Still - it played a pretty good game - quite an achievement with the limited RAM available.
What was it with Special Editions with some 2600 games? There's no evidence to suggest they were actually different. Or is there?
