Soviets made some pretty cool games, considering the technology they worked with.  Lots of emphasis on analog circuits, I think.  Also, some pretty blatant ripoffs.

But it's hard to argue w/ the success of Tetris.

I went there a couple of times with my parents in the mid '80s, and the cool games are my only fond memory. Like some cool shooting games with "real" heavy rifles.
