King Atari Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 As always, C=64 Super Mario Bros. is a good play. Sadly, C=64 Double Dragon isn't any good . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liveinabin Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 Pretty much anything by Thalamus (Sanxion in particular has awesome loading music) Wizball is great, the Last Ninja games are good too and theres a really odd little game called Kettle thats worth looking out for.

Bez Posted March 14, 2002 Share Posted March 14, 2002 Man o man! I forgot to mention quite possibly the best shoot ´em up game ever ! On any platform. KATAKIS !!! The graphics, music and feel of the game is fantastic. When it was released on the Amiga later on it was a huge disapointment. But for the C-64...GET! GET! GET!! Adios for now.

Paul Slocum Posted March 16, 2002 Share Posted March 16, 2002 My favorite C64 game is Below the Root. Others that haven't been mentioned: Racing Destruction Set Alice in Wonderland Conan The Neuromancer -Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Voigt Posted March 18, 2002 Share Posted March 18, 2002 My Faves: Archon 1&2 Shamus: Case 2 Head Over Heels Mr. Do's Castle Gyruss Diamond Mine On a related Note: I'm looking for C64 carts of Up N' Down, Spy Hunter, River Raid, and a Magic Voice Module. Yeah, like everyone's got 3 or 4 of these things.... Geoff "No way is C64 Up N' Down a DP 3 in rarity!" Voigt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Asmo Posted March 18, 2002 Share Posted March 18, 2002 Space Taxi is a classic as well. Does anyone know where you can buy C64 hard drives? There was a site that had them a couple years ago, but I can't seem to find it. KA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian M Posted March 18, 2002 Share Posted March 18, 2002 I like Lode Runner, Rush N Attack, some of the D&D and Ultima games (if you can find them complete with all the necessary items and documentation), Kickman, Clowns, Last Ninja, Pitstop II, Super Huey, and some kind of motorcycle racing game I have on disk that I can't remember the name to.

Gunstar Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 You should just chill and wait until you get the C64 from me, there are a TON of games coming with it, many of which were mentioned here...unless your just asking to know which games to look for in the collection I'm sending...still waiting on your mail, still waiting on your letter though...

I do not think I could bear any dissent on this issue. It Is Great. End. as always, Markimus of Space Taxi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Sauron Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 Definitely grab Friday the 13th if you can find it. I played that game far more than any other C64 game. Finder's Keepers is pretty good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Atari Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 They made Friday the 13th for the C=64? Was it anything near as bad as the NES game? Oh, and singlehandedly the best C=64 game ever: Ghostbusters! I played that thing for hours on end! Batman used to get a lot of play as well. You have to get Ghostbusters, though.

ubersaurus Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 *cough* Paranoia Complex is a sweet game. Hard to find a good dump of it online, though. If you can get an actual copy then you own. *boosting post count all day, every day* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
