C64 forever:)

Disagree,

C64 has no decent exclusives, Spectrum 48k has way more,
The enhanced remake of Horace goes skiing is gonna kill any game available on the C60'bore,

Plus the "Beast" Spectrum +2 has a 3.5 MHz CPU and 128 KB of Memory.

;)

The C64 helped me survive during the video game crash. We had two games. Donkey Kong and Qbert. I played those for a few years over and over again until I got a Sega Master System in 87.

My first computer was a ZX Spectrum 48k with rubber keys given to me by my older sister when she went to off to university.

I had hundreds of games for it, some I got off magazine covers, others I programmed myself using guides in the mags (this took an age) others I pirated from friends using my dads tape to tape stereo...

One day my old faithful gave up the ghost so I asked for a +2 or +3 for my birthday, I waited patiently for the big day to arrive but on the day of the race found that my mum had actually bought me a C64 !!

Not one to be ungrateful I kept the new machine, I'm glad I did the upgrade in colour was a massive boost and the C64 came with its own tape player which was far better than the one I'd been using on the 48k , I also got a Competition Pro joystick off my nan :)

I also remember playing Qbert, what a game! I remember those days fondly as a bit of a Golden age of gaming, The UK gaming scene was in full swing and talented programmers were doing wonders with the little hardware resources available to them.

Was Heroquest the one based off the Games Workshop boardgame of the same name?

Thx for the list "VideoGameLab"

Hunter's Moon music was soooo good! i'm off to youtube it. :)

[Retroman]

History repeating itself again with Commado 64 keyboard . with that being said: can we have classic old school CONTRA re-done while remaster is HOT!

[Yui_Suzumiya]

Any Ultima games? :D

[DivineAssault]

I never played one of these.. I doubt any of the games would hold my interest because i grew up with the NES and its retro style is too engraved in my brain..

[rainslacker]

Some of the provided games are actually pretty good. You new age gamers got all spoiled with your NES'es and focused gaming magazines. :)

Seriously though, while this is a neat concept, most of those games really aren't worth playing unless you are really into retro gaming. I have most of them for an actual C64 system, and I have to really try to get through any of them. They're fun to boot up and play around a bit just to see what used to be, and how far games have come, but they're much different than what you started seeing more of on NES and systems afterwards.

@Divine

I recently picked up an Analogue NT mini imported from the US, it plays all the original NES cartridges and outputs to HDMI it's also well built made from machined aluminium and is a superb addition to anyones retro catalogue if its something you're still interested in.

It doesn't use emulation so its 100% accurate unlike some of the many clones available right now including the NES mini.

They've recently released a SNES version called the Super NT, its also getting amazing reviews due to its 100% compatible FPGA hardware.

[Vipre77]

No Rambo? I am disappoint. :(

C64 has no decent exclusives, Spectrum 48k has way more,
The enhanced remake of Horace goes skiing is gonna kill any game available on the C60'bore,

Lol oh that why the c64 was no.1 i never knew that till now....thanx fool.

[Wasabi]

@Sub,

I think you may have missed the point of my post, it was a parody of the ongoing fanboy wars that occur here and on numerous other gaming websites :)

It wasn't meant to be anything other than a fun take on an age old argument.

[Cobra951]

Like the NES Mini, this is not a miniaturization of the real system, but rather an emulator. The keyboard is fake too. Check out this competent review:
