Howard tells his story in a unique way, starting from the dig in New Mexico to uncover the myth and heading back to how he became a programmer at Atari and was given just five weeks to create E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial for the Christmas market. From insights into his design process, office pranks and management problems, this is a humorous and intriguing look back at the industry - laying to rest many misconceptions and ideas about what really happened at Atari.
