Let's not kid ourselves, people. We all know exactly what the most culturally impactful game of 1982 was. For all the wrong reasons, it was definitely E.T.: the game that, more so than any other, nearly destroyed the Western console gaming market.

As to what '82 game I enjoyed the most (which is usually different from the most culturally impactful one), I have to give that to Cute Bert. There are some close runners-up for me though. Namely both Pitfall and Donkey Kong Jr., which I liked better than the original for letting me play as the "bad guy" in a sense. I can get into that sort of thing.
