Oh boy, oh boy - my favourite homecomputer! The games were terrific in these days: Maybe not sooo good raphics, but the ideas!

White Viper was my favorite but I can never forget Ninja. The sorry instrumenation of the C64 did not give the catchy music justice.

It's all about:<br><br>Load "*",8,1<br><br>Simply put, one of the best racing games ever created: StuntCar Racer<br><br>Being a big racing fan all my life, this one was my first experience with "racing" in 3D. It's hella slow, and can prolly be done better on a Gameboy, but damn, the physics in that game rule! I later got it on my Amiga500 and fell in love all over again, this time with a faster FPS (like 15) and better sound.<br><br>As much as I love my Apples, Commodore just holds a special place in my heart as being the biggest game pimp in all the land. I only ever bought like 1 game on the machine (when i bought the cpu), and all the rest came pouring in on spread disks... <br><br>Oh the days when the concept of "warez" were still relatively new. <br><br>

I wore blisters on my thumbs playing Stunt Car Racer on my Amiga. I never owned a C64. I had a TI-99/4A at that time.<br><br>Dan East

I never played Murder on the Mississippi.  What about Combat Lynx or Harrier. Those were two combat simulation games. I also spent many an hour playing Friday the 13th. But it was too easy. I'd kill Jason at least a dozen times in one sitting. but gotta love the music.

I played Harrier.  OMG, that was fun.  Remember that look alike Mario Bro. game.  I think it was a Pipe dreams or something.
