My first computer was the legendary Commodore 64, that I still adore. If you've had one, what was your favourite game? I had several - such as: Exploding Fist Bluemax Bruce Lee Jumpman Junior Pitfall II ) / ) (""") ) * ("" @@ ’_) ("") ("”") (’’) \/_( *)_( (_ */"" @@ (_) (_(* )_( .. )<,

Commando and Who Dares Wins Ghosts 'n' Gobblins Bruce Lee These were among my faves, but I also got a kick out of The Pawn, Uridium, Bluemax, Lode Runner, Wizard Of Wor, etc. Wonderful memories... I had hundreds of C64 games! Then I moved to C128, then Amiga 1000. Now I have a PS2 and my favorite kind of games are still old school, 2D side scrollers like 1945 (amazing old game) or Gradius V (new game with an old school vibe). I have all the C64 games which I can play on my Mac but I gotta say I find most of them boring now, especially compared to real arcade conversions like 1945!! I play all this (PS2 & Mac) through an X-Arcade dual stick (best joystick I ever bought!).
Oh yeah... Not to forget Impossible Mission, Ghost n' Goblins, Wizard of Wor, etc... thanks! I think you can download C64-games, compile the code to MIDI-sequences, and record them at tape. Ready to load from a C64-tape-recorder (with Turbo-Tape II or ABC-turbo), in case you're having a C64 still. One of my friends has just bought a C64 with a tape-recorder second-hand. He says that the experiment works fine! I had a C64-emulator on my old PC, but I haven't installed one at this computer. But there are many emulators for free on the net, I think. I'm sorry - but I don't remember the name of my former emulator, and from what excact site I downloaded it (but I think they're easy to find). love, ) / ) (""") ) * ("" @@ ’_) ("") ("”") (’’) \/_( *)_( (_ */"" @@ (_) (_(* )_( .. )<,

I used to love my C64. I think Flimbo's Quest was probably my favourite game, followed by Funtime Freddies Circus (or whatever it was called)
