....and I still have it

My very first computer. Favourite game: Pool of Radiance.

Mine isn't working for one reason or the other, should check it out what's the matter, I'd so love to play couple games for old times sake

Wanna send one over to me that works?

yeah tons of either working or not working joysticks, disc drive and tons of games over here too

Never had a real monitor, it was always hooked to the tv ;-)

edited: Do you folks remember some of those?

Ooohhh, I had one, soooo long time ago, ahhh sweet recalling :-)

Soooo many games, cant really remember wich was the one I liked the most, loving them all LOL

My first one was an amstrad cpc464

I had one when I was about 8, i think we still have it in the attic somewhere along with one game I think I burnt out, spy hunter lol that was the greatest game (back then)

All I can remember now was all the codes I'd put in just to change screen colors or put the hearts up or spades to make designs It took like half the day just to put in all the codes just to do something as simple as now....how its all changed

It was my first PC! And I liked it very much!

Then I had an 386 , a P2 266 and now my Athlon XP 2400 +

Ohhh showing my age... I had a commodore too!!
All time fav games were mostly rpgs like The Bards Tale

no but we had one of these

OMG I LOVED that computer. I finally got rid of mine a couple of years ago, but I still have an emulator that turns my computer into one, so I can play some games and stuff

It's an old Apple, looks like the one I had, but I don't remember what it was. We just called it the "Apple."

I had a TI994A, not a C64. Worked kinda the same way, hooked up to the TV to play games or write Basic programs.

I had an amstrad cpc464 too. For a few months it was the 'coolest'? pc around cos it had the tape drive integrated into the keyboard LOL

My fave games were a pinball game where you had to do tasks as you flipped the balls and a game called colony where you had to plant mushrooms and stuff and fix fences before the bugs ate your mushrooms.

I had to throw out the k/b and the (green) monitor as they were broken but I saved the games in case I can get a working one on ebay some day (or find an emulator) - would be great to take a trip down memory lane with those games.

I miss old days, I think I will buy one But I do not know how to find those games

I had one too

I remember thoses unslept nights playing commodore's games, thoses games had soul, not like these we have now

my favorite were: microprocesore soccer & one on one

LOL a walk down memory lane!

We had a commodore 64 - I had to share it with my two brothers, so didn't have as much time to play on it as I would have liked. My fave games were that International Hockey one and One on One. lol

I would have sold my soul for an Apple IIe, but I never did get one. Sigh.

I'm sure the C64 is still in my parent's attic lol. Next time I'm there, I'll have to make a search, remove years of dust and see if it still works!

Thanks for the memories!

- dizzy

If you do a google search you should be able to find some suppliers for old games - or ebay usually has a good selection in. I searched and found a great shop that had the old cpc464 games in still ?1.99 like they were 15 years ago! Ebay usually gets old consoles through it from time to time in varying conditions too.

LOL, watch this:
http://www.getpaidforum.com/forums/index.p...dpost&p=1431397

We watched the cartoons: Transformers, Thundercats, GI Joe, Ducktales, Ghostbusters, Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles, The Flintstones..
and then we played the games on the C64.


Oh there's one game I couldn't find back:
you had to build scyscrapers with pre-fab blocks hanging from helicopters,
and face natural disasters. (also multi-player)
Does anyone know the name?


Here's a decent MIDI version of a nice tune from a once popular game on the C64, Commando:

(MIDI and SID are very different, but sometimes a MIDI sounds better than the original SID from the C64. Unlike SIDs, MIDIs sound different on different computers, because people have different sound cards etc. now.)

i think we used to have a commodore when i was about 1 !

we still have an Atari games console from about 1978! it still works too.

Yep, I used to have one... and it should still be somewhere at my mother's house in Finland

Those things were COOL I didn't have many games though... but my favorite was "Boulder Dash"

Those games on tapes... Oh boy...

Ah, the Commodore 64. Good stuff. Does anybody remember these games?

Whirly Nerds
Strangeloop
Hunchback (the theme song was Teddy Bear Picnic or something like that)

I used to play those all the time.

We took one out of the cupboard, dusted it off, and hooked it up today.
And we played International Soccer (from a cartridge - no need to wait minutes for the game to load) on a TV, with two great digital joysticks (made in Holland; I'm not sure if they sold them in the US).

Yup... commodore 64 rings a bell somewhere. I remember playing something like River Raid on it loooong ago. Now only the keyboard is somewhere in the house.. will try to find it!

Wow, not sure wether I had a Com64 or older version, but I recall that in order for us kids to play a game, we first had to type in lengthy lines of code, sometimes took hours just to play one game. I can't recall what one this one was called, but I like the gam where Meteor's would fly all over the place and you would be right in the middle of this and when you would shoot these meteor's they would split into smaller ones, I would just sit in the middle of the screen and spin my ship around while shooting

I checked that http://www.lemon64.com/games/ and found couple games I used to play a lot with my 64 but ummm anyone know where I could download say Giana Sisters to play with my PC? From lemon64 you can only download the music *snif*

Alex,

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I went to check my old 64 games, they're in the back of our dressing room (hard to get actually lol), and in the same bad the games are I found my curlers and old postcards and letters my relatives have sended each others in the beginning of 1900's, both of those things (curlers and the letters) I've been searching for ever since we moved! I was so sure they'd be lost forever! And now because of this thread I went for the bag and found them!!!



P.S. Oh and I'm also playing Giana Sisters again

Ohhh memories lol, my first computer, fav game, Might and Magic

I still have mine, or well the pieces of it. My mom bought me one when I was 8 or 9 to play with for about $5 at a yard sale and I took it apart a few weeks later.

It was fun, but I didn't like the putting it back together part. Heh, I did get it to work though

I think I'm going to see if I still have all the parts tommorrow, I think my Commodore is still in the attic, unless mother had given it off to the Good Will like she had alot of my old toys and clothes..

Ghost Busters was my favorite game. Heh, I think I had some odd Spiderman like game too, can't really remember.

My first computer was a VIC 20, and then I got the COM 64, my favorite game was Mission Impossible / Impossible Mission...can't remember which word came first LOL

My family had a Commodore 64 too! I think we still have most of it in a closet somewhere.

Some of my favorite games...

Jeopardy
Wheel of Fortune
Force Seven- sort of like an "Alien" type game.
Spy Hunter- didn't have that one very long.
Also had some sort of flight simulator game.
Also had a helicopter flight simulator, but never could figure out how to take off.
I'm pretty sure I had a Dungeons and Dragons game too.
Commando- pretty fun!

Yes it's a bit of nostalgy when you remind those old 8 or 16-bit computers.
I didn't have C64 but had a Slovak ZX-Spectrum clone called Didaktik Kompakt and although it had many flaws of old Speccy it had a built-in disc-drive.

But what is the most important I enjoyed very nice times with this old computer.
