This is my childhood right here. Such great days.

[@JohnDoeGaming2021]

Yes, and so many memories.

[@stewsretroreviews]

I love the old speccy, but I originally got my C64 just a few yrs back from ebay for £50, and just got it because my cousin had one in the 80s and we used to sleep over and play tons of C64 games on certain weekends, great times, played some of these classics too, Bruce Lee, Ghostbusters and Impossible Mission. Nice collection of games mate 👍🏻

[@shaunbebbington6411]

Park Patrol is an amazing game!

[@Borna909]

Boulder Dash was a gem.

[@paulwiley8902]

Some great nostalgia here, 1984 and 85 were definitely my best years as a C64 gamer. I remember Everyone's a Wally and Pyjamarama as well, I used to like them.

[@canuck_gamer3359]

There are quite a few classics in there. Bruce Lee, Pitfall II, Raid on Bungeling Bay, Raid Over Moscow...wow I can't believe that was 38 years ago...ouch! lol.

[@JohnDoeGaming2021]

38 years, time flies by way too fast. 🙂

[@AWBD_Tower]

I love how most of the c64 games of my early childhood came out this year: Donal Duck's playground, Montezuma's revenge, Ghostbusters, H.E.R.O and Boulder Dash (among many others). The C64 was dad's so he would go into these "totally legit" places (we are from Argentina, there wasnt really any other options) and come back with whatever he felt was cool.

[@TheBurgerTown]

Thanks for uploading this many games. It's amazing to see this kind of very old games in action.

[@JohnDoeGaming2021]

Thank you for your comment 🙂. There are so many games that I have rediscovered while makeing these videos. 👍

[@brucetungsten5714]

Falcon Patrol II is still a blast to play - love the music.

[@JohnDoeGaming2021]

Falcon Patrol II, that game drives me crazy i find it quite hard. 🙂

[@brucetungsten5714]

@@JohnDoeGaming2021 Hard and a really good game - a real classic.

[@AudieHolland]

Raid on Bungeling Bay, Ghostbusters, Raid over Moscow, Black Hawk. So ahead of their time.

[@fuzzywzhe]

Ghostbusters SUCKED.

[@AudieHolland]

[@stuartsinclair6269]

I’ve never ever played the C64, this so reminds me of the new Zx Spectrum Next…Interesting Games😮

[@roygalaasen]

Bruce Lee, Mario Bros, HERO, Spy vs Spy. Mario Bros was a great fun rarity featuring a two player mode.

[@bobbyhulll8737]

My entire summer of 1984

[@bigmaxy07]

I hear ya. 84 to 87 the C64 was my life, then went onto Amiga in 88. This whole video is just so incredible isn't it.

[@darrenpearsall4523]

Now i know where Andy Braybrook got his sound effects for Paradroid from 37'25 😉

[@Nickbaldeagle02]

Tapper was an awesome arcade port.

[@JohnDoeGaming2021]

Tapper is a game I come back to regularly. 😀

[@QRS666]

Pitfall was a 1983 release on the c64. Loved all the games on tis list! So many memories

[@JohnDoeGaming2021]

Both MobyGames and Lemon64 lists that Pitfall was released in 1984 on the C64. But yes, many fun games and memories. 🙂👍

[@QRS666]

@@JohnDoeGaming2021 I'm probably wrong then! Was so sure it was 1983 as it was originally released in 1982 to the Atari. And pitfall II is 1984 :)

[@bielefeldundmehr2461]

Montezuma's Revenge looks like an early version of Rick Dangerous.

[@virtuafighter3]

Mancopter looked ahead of its time. I did not know about that game.

[@JohnDoeGaming2021]

A fun little game. 🙂

[@simonharding1572]

I had most of these games wow some great ones in this list

[@theMyouknow]

Only game im missing is commando.

[@emmanuelviktor]

I can't remember it was so bad ! Pitty i lost so many years in front of such bad games 😢

[@wlsmojo]

What a year!!

[@Parlimant_Strifey]

do you think Henry from Henry's House knows that Ralph from Wreck it Ralph?

[@tomyyoung2624]

They taste like *medicine* to me... actually, yes!

[@danielcontee7851]

HIGHNOON, gotta be remade

[@tomsuzyinfluencerinfj2712]

Infocom Games, they always took a weekend to solve

[@CriticalThinker78]

Oh the memories

[@lararaulf9968]

In my opinion Boulder-Dash is best.

[@fuzzywzhe]

You never figured out how to win Impossible Mission did you? I never made it to the last level of Boulder Dash.

[@user-bx2hr4lw1e]

また古き良きゲームを遊びたいですね。

[@CastleKnight7]

私も。

[@fuzzywzhe]

Did people in Japan have Commodore 64 computers? 日本の人々はコモドール 64 コンピューターを持っていましたか?

[@peterklauke2708]

press play on tape

[@galaxiehubba]

Still have a functioning system , with a dot matrix printer even!

[@JohnDoeGaming2021]

I've never had a printer for the C64 myself, but that is really cool to have. 👍

[@B1toDO]

Yeah, class of ´84 plays c64 :)

[@jogibaerr50000]

I thought I know every C64 game, and then I watched this... 🙂 And the worst game in this list is "Son of Blagger"...

[@darrenpearsall4523]

Totally agree, it's dire!!

[@marioweinhold3815]

Werner!

[@pauledwards2817]

Nice selection. I was working in a home computer dealership from the end of 79 and this reminds me of why I never did fall for the 64. I was an Atari 8bit fan. I could never forgive the hideous washed out fixed palette, huge borders which were rarely set to black and did experience right from the start the slow cassette and shocking disk load times from the 1541. The SID was not a great leap forward either, thin sounding and lacking impact. Most of the SID magic really comes from the hard bashing music playing code that until the 64 came along was not really a thing.

[@VIC-20]

The music on International Karate sounds better on the C64. I think that tune was peak Atari though.

[@datacipher]

It was the awful palette that I consider the huge weakness of the 64. Such a shame.

[@fuzzywzhe]

Amiga blew the Atari ST out of the water. At the time, the Commodore had the best capabilities, but NES was certainly a better game machine even if you complain about the color palette of the 64. Apple was generally black and white back then. You are certainly right about the cassette and disk drive. There was an error in chip manufacture (design?) on verifying bits, and they just did it in software, crippling the speed. You could bypass it with a few programs and just pray there were no bad bits in the transfer. Usually worked.
