:D  I completely loved those games. Great post :D
Hey, I've heard there's a commodore 64 imitator program that you can install, which includes many of those games. Was thinking of getting it.   :) Impossible mission: my fav. :lol  

*edit* LOL ~ that evil laugh on impossible mission when you died would be an awesome addition to an AH soundpack. :D

yeah they have a number of emulators out there...

This one is a java based one that you can play in your browser..

The vice emulator is probably the best though...

Ditto. My favorites were The Last Ninja and Project Firestart. Forbidden Forest was a bit creepy.

Oh I loved the Epyx Summer & Winter games!  Ghosbusters was a great deal of fun too.  (What's the chopper game around 7-8 minutes in?)

Sigh, no Super Huey  I loved that game

The C64 was quite the diverse little system  Some of those guys look cheesy while some really pushed that graphic system to its limits.

One of the greatest game platforms ever.  I still play a lot of those.

That's cool.  I remember Kung Foo, Spy Hunter, Bubble Boble, California Games, Winter/Summer Games and about 10 others I can't put a name to anymore.

i liked the C64, it had a built in compiler, you could type in a short program (basic) right on the screen and then run it.
