Worst Game Ever? Absolutely Not.
The Good
I can legitimately list at least hundreds of games worse than this. Worse games were made BEFORE this (Pac-Man [the atari port] and Custer's Revenge). and WAY WORSE after (Fire Fly, 1983; Sonic Jam on Game.com, 1997; Phoenix Games, 2000's; Takeshi's Challenge, 1986, to name a few)... To be honest... for an Atari game thats made mostly by one guy in 5 weeks, it's kinda good.
The Bad
Even though it's still bad, as I said, a list of games worse than ET would take an hour printing HALF of it.
The Bottom Line
Is ET the worst video game ever? Absolutely not. Never was and NEVER WILL BE.
