DiemetriX Posted February 13, 2006 Author Share Posted February 13, 2006 yepp IT's true.One of many Sources: http://www.snopes.com/business/market/atari.asp Atari, stuck with millions of games and consoles that were largely unsellable at any price, sent fourteen truckloads of merchandise from their plant in El Paso, Texas, to be dumped in a city landfill in Alamogordo, New Mexico in late September 1983. In order to keep the site from being looted, steamrollers crushed and flattened the games, and a concrete slab was poured over the remains.
