Okay, so... I have a super vague memory about being at a babysitter's house, and they had a game that someone was playing on their TV. This would have been pre-1987, but I'm guessing somewhere between 1984 and 1986. Anyway, all I really remember is that they were playing what looked like a firefighting game. The screen setup was basic (obviously, this was the 80's). I think there was a building or two. Maybe a house. The person playing was controlling a fire truck, putting out fires.

That's all I've got.

It definitely wasn't Rampage. I want to say the graphics of this game were far simpler than Rampage, but I'm not 100% certain.

So... any idea what game this would be and/or what console they would have been playing it on?

Fire Fighter for the Atari 2600?

Hmmmmmm.... that might be it. Right after I posted the thread, I found Fireman for Coleco Vision, which looks a lot like Donkey Kong, so I'm not sure that's it either...
