You can buy one of those E.T. landfill games

Garbage has never looked so good.

In 1983, the video game company Atari buried thousands of copies of E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial, widely considered one of the worst games ever created. Recently, a documentary crew dug up those copies, along with other Atari 2600 games, in the Alamogordo, New Mexico, landfill. Now, you can buy them on eBay, according to the Alamogordo News.
