Most 2600 games can't be beaten can they?

Someone should start keeping a tally of how long this thread can go without anyone contesting whether a given game is actually "beatable."

There are a handful that are actually beatable such as airlock. Others I just count if I can beat the high score or complete the initial loop.

Settle down. I was not contesting anything, my question is pretty self explanatory. Shhh.

@Fragems, as in the default high score? That's a decent way to go about it actually.

Just kinda an observation for how often it pops up, not really going after you.

Maybe "Games Beaten 2014" should set a few parameters for what constitutes "beating" games like that?

EDIT: On second thought, I doubt anyone would agree on such parameters.

It's not so much you, but rather a few others here are pretty snobbish on what counts as "beaten", as if someone disagreeing with their views constitute sacrilege.

If anyone has an idea on the 'parameters' for these endless arcade games I'd be glad to hear it. On my backloggery I have a little note for myself on the sidebar that indicates when a game is beaten/completed according to my personal preferences and I'm not too satisfied with this portion of it:
*Endless arcade games: Nulled, or beaten only when the rounds start to repeat themselves and your score exceeds past the default high scores. No continues/new credits. Highest difficulty. Capping the highest score possible in the game counts as "mastered".
Problem with this is beating a single loop is about the easiest thing in the world for some of these games. I like the "beat the top default high score" idea.

edit: adjusted the quote a bit to reflect the 'beat the default scores' thing.
