Dirt Bike

 

From Ed Logg: "The game was started by Dennis Koble ... it was a game similar to Sprint except you drove a dirt bike and the control was a set of handlebars that could be used to steer the bike instead of a steering wheel.  We field tested the game and it earned enough money to make it good enough not to kill outright, but not good enough to make it into production.  However, I had made Super Breakout at the same time I was working on Dirt Bike.  No one at Atari had ever worked on two games at once before.  Super Breakout had earned a large amount of money, and this probably led to the decision not to build Dirt Bike.  I was not disappointed considering the success of Super Breakout."
