Legend has it among gamers that 3 decades ago Atari buried a massive cache of E.T. video game cartridges in a landfill in New Mexico because the game bombed and they had nowhere to put their surplus. Now Fuel Industries has been given six months to search the massive 100 acre landfill to find the motherlode of lost games and confirm that the story is really true (and maybe make some money on the now defunct game on Ebay! Bleh...) And if they don't find the fabled game? Well, they'll have spent a half year searching through garbage for TV and nothing to show for their troubles, what could be a better use of time?
