C64 games recollection

Super compilation of over 650 C64 games in 86 minutes.
The Commodore 64 count far more than 10.000 games, but here you can have a little chance to find the game you don't remember the name since i tried to pack togheter most of the famous ones in a single video. (still missing a lot, i know)
Click on a title to jump to the respective gameplay or longplay of the game. The feature works only for around the first 400-500 titles since i reached the maximum allowed number of youtube annotations.

[@Archvile1]

Commodore 64 was such an amazing piece of tech. one my favorite gaming devices!

[@scottbreon9448]

I agree, being a C64 man myself. However, I also loved the old Atari 800

[@stuartkemp2552]

what an absolutely superb video!! As a 56 year old it brought back so many happy memories!! aahh, good days!!

[@Pau_Pau9]

If you own these collections, you hold one great collection of creativity and efforts of SOOOOO many talented individuals..

[@MrSLOFANS]

We grew up with zx spectrum, c64, Amiga, Atari, Sega, Nintendo, PC to pentium ..... We lived the story of computing. Today, everything on the Internet, everything is paid, and there are several advertisements for the product you buy. Thank you for reliving this best era of computing.

[@KretinoSantino]

Most 8-bit compilations have like same list of games, like Giana sisters, Last Ninja, Pitstop II, Commandos, IK, Turrican, Bubble Bobble, Spy vs Spy, Summer games..... Thank you for putting in many incredible games, many seems to already forgot, like Quest for tires, Ikari Warriors, Asterix, Renegade .....

[@wjcc7033]

What a great game compilation. I can only imagine the amount of time it took to load, play, and edit each game. Great job, and thanks!

[@magnuswootton6181]

nice video.

[@lordevyl8317]

Not really that long to load if he did it using emulation, since you can put VICE in warp mode.

[@rickyhaggerty6159]

Cliffhanger! And his brother "Coat" 🤣 Loved this game so much!

[@DangerKennyB]

Wow, so many of these games I'd never seen before (despite being a big Commodore 64/128 fan back in the day) and so many that I'm sad that I missed out on! Thanks for the video, it's awesome.

[@Cruiseblackpool]

Same here. I think the full games released was way over what anyone would get round to playing all of them.

[@bulentcabuk5228]

River Raid, Int Karate III, Boulder Dash, Wizard of Wor, Yie R Kung-fu, Em Hu Soccer, Commando .... etc. Realy miss them to much

[@scottbreon9448]

There was not International Karate III, do you mean IK+

[@scottbreon9448]

The C64 version of Tetris had some of the best music I've ever heard in an 8-bit game

[@efe_aydal]

Thank you for the effort. With the second video I found many games which I used to play but forgot the name. Hope I'll find more in here.

[@anttihirvi9371]

C64 made me the man I am today. A Kick ass warrior of life and a total madman

[@Rattopaz]

Got so many, i can't really say what's my favorite, probably one of these: Fist II, Renegade, last ninja II, revs, enigma force, Microprose soccer. Enigma force is for sure the game i have played the most, played it everyday for over a year until my tape wasn't able to read it anymore ^.^

[@mistressb7844]

Ciao ho letto ciò che hai scritto sul coronavirus in un video riportando dei link. Posso chiederti se sei credente o ateo? Scusa se ti sembra inopportuno

[@Travis_22]

Microprose Soccer, yes! That was the only C64 game I used to own which was a cartridge. All the rest were tapes.

[@Archvile1]

commodore 64 was unbelievable machine! so many great games

[@scottbreon9448]

True, but there was an awful lot of "shovelware" too Like the C64 ports of Chase HQ, Cisco Heat, and Hard Drivin'

[@edunoeduno4980]

OH MY GOD MERMAID MADNESS NOSTALGIA AINT HIT THIS HARD IN A MINUTE YOU REALLY GOT ME WITH THAT ONE DAMN I BE MISSING THESE POTENT NOSTALGIA HITTTTTSSSS

[@marcocorona3842]

Thanks to you I've found the real name of the game The Way of the Tiger. 😍 I loved that game.

[@Emulous79]

Nice call on Hell and Back.

[@ssskywalk3rrr]

::sigh:: ahhhhhhhhhhh love me some c64. my father got his hands on 2 long stacks of floppy discs with various programs. i'll never stop loving video games. that was back around 1986.

[@simplayer666]

Funny you mention microprose soccer, me and my mate played that a hell of a lot, theres was a place on the corner of the 25yd box where you could stop and not get tackled, then choose your moment and always score in the top corner of the net.... my mate always had the edge on that game.... Kikstart 2 was another one of my all time favourites. Recently picked up a c64 on ebay, slowly collecting all the games I used to own, great memories.

[@rikosan8771]

Thanks for the time and the passion of your work, great work! thanks from italy

[@BagoZonde]

This is massive! Thanks for your work. Outstanding! C64 FOREVER!!

[@t.k.1545]

Cool 👍 ... I remember Airwolf... And the Music is awesome...

[@pizzadesign]

Epic compilation, with even links to long plays! WOW!

[@dongustavo5904]

Hands down, this is the best C64 compilation video on youtube. Music is perfect, visuals are perfect, excellent work my friend. I'm sorry about the low count of views, maybe you should paste some links on boards and sites about C64, i'm sure fans would appreciate this video. I hope you will make another one, obviously your collection of games is huge and your taste of choice is very very good.

[@Big-Reds]

Walk through memory lane

[@titanicblinky6489]

Great video. Nostalgia kicked in watching this. Gonna break out my C64.

[@kiddhkane]

It's so awesome that those games were sometimes more creative than modern games

[@markmcrither8899]

Loved the c64 best days ever bk in the 80s

I am here looking C64 diamonds in the rough........ Found 12 of them in Part II

Hard to pick a fave but I really liked Dan Dare.

[@Halligen1972]

As a big fan of the c-64 games I really like your work! Keep it up like that, pal !!!

[@danashymkowich6778]

Aw! Star Legue Baseball!!! That was my jam!!! :D

[@Jayce_Alexander]

19:05 The game is called "Eye of Horus", not "Eyes of the Hour" in case anyone wants to get it but can't find it. ;)

[@chrispeysson826]

In case anyone is searching for the game at 13:29, it's called Fire ant, not Pang. Great compilation of games here, C64 was great!

[@roygalaasen]

Wow! Lots of memories there and even a couple of games I have forgot the name of that you helped me with. I certainly don't think a part 2 is a waste of time at all. ;) Yes, I watched it all. I agree this is the best C64 compilation on youtube.

[@giddue]

Dragonskull was terrifinyg... Especially when death did arrive on gameover

[@machachaist]

This recap, put me in a good mood. Thank for puting this together

[@Simon0]

Hey great job from what i have seen so far! Because it is such a long vid i am watching it in sections. So far the music has been great too. I love watching C64 vids. I love that nostalgia where i just see a part of a game i had forgotten about and all these memories come flooding back!

[@CaffeineConnoisseur]

I guess with that many games it's hopeless... the games of my past, out of the box my father gave me, are forever lost. I can't remember any names and I get the feeling that they were just too obscure :c

[@classicgameteacher]

Some of these c64 games till hold up to this day, even graphically - a nice minimalistic form of art

[@satan3959]

The C64 version of Nebulus/Tower Toppler comes to mind. It can almost pass as a 16 Bit game

[@adamwest8711]

Damn. Nostalgia hitting hard.

[@RebirthoftheSun]

[@Anacronian]

Wow i just realised that the music from international Karate is the theme from Merry Christmas Mr.Lawrence.. only took me 30 years to figure that one out :D

[@roygalaasen]

Ha! I never knew! Never seen the movie, but really a cool fact! :D Thank you for telling. :D

[@Simon0]

were you working solely on that for the thirty years? or have you had some other projects during that time.

[@scottbreon9448]

A lot of C64 Sids were in-deed sampled from other artists. Jarre and Vangelis were sampled quite a lot in fact

[@Simon0]

finally finished watching! i thought the vid was a bit too long.. but still great music and reasonable selection of games. Obviously had a lot of work put into it so well done.

[@Geyer70]

My personal Top 5 C64 games: Sid Meyer's Pirates! The Last Ninja Gunship International Karate+ Winter Olympics '88

[@scottbreon9448]

Good list, but I preferred Last Ninja 2 to the original...for both music and gameplay My list goes like this... (random orfer) Defender of the Crown Pirates Silent Service (don't think I've played a submarine simulator that has ever touched it) IK + LN2

[@dosgames1496]

A book about 80's video games: www.amazon.com/Games-vs-Hardware-history-gaming-ebook/dp/B00I4KRI4E it seems that C64 was the best gaming platform in the 80's

[@chrisnizer1885]

Woo-hoo! I just ordered the full size C64 and I'm looking forward to adding some great classic ROM's because the preloaded games list is looking pretty weak indeed. Thanks for the heads up my friend, can't wait to get these games loaded so they can be PLAYED!👍 👍

[@BUGAMERS]

Thank you very much for all this games memories ! Very nice job man !

[@suncity803]

IK+ was the best fighting game at it's time. Used to be Way of the exploding fist up till then.

I loved playing the last ninja 2..I got it with cristmas now 32 jaar ago i think..it was in a black box and inside was the game cassette a ninja cap and a plastic ninja star 🤣

Awesome trip down memory lane. But, you forgot a few: Bristles, Zork I, II and III, Beyond Zork(C128), Plundered Hearts, Pitfall, Ultima I, II, and III, Pegasis, Castle Wolfenstein, Wolfenstein 3D, Wasteland, The Bard's Tale I, II, and III, 4th and Inches, Day of the Tentacle and Golden Pond. Those were the ones that I had. But, like you said. You can't put all 10,000 games on here. And, Tandy is starting up again. How funny.

Hello, someone can you tell me the name of the video game for commodore 64, where you used a toy car, I think white, and you had to save a female car? There was the possibility to literally build the picture of your choice, putting stairs, bridges, etc. But I do not completely remember the name. Thanks to anyone who answers me

[@SelfIndulgentGamer]

@Fred astairs you might be interested to know you can get an sd card style disk drive for the c64. i hope that makes sense.

[@ziegly]

Went through the whole video, trying to find a game I played as a kid, but can't remember its name :( The camera in that game is vertical, similar to the one in Alcazar: the forgotten fortress. The game starts by someone kidnapping your kid, and you are basically looking for your kid, trying to save him, inside what seemed to be a deserted mansion, going through different rooms, each represented by a separate screen.

[@mikemingus7183]

[@childofthesun32]

I know that fast progress is often made at the start of things. Also sometimes a huge leap just comes along that moves things forward immensely. But look at this shit. These games are like 30 odd years old. Look at games now. Where the fuck are we going to be in another 30 years??

[@Rattopaz]

I don't know, but games haven't changed much in the last 10 years, yes they got better graphics, but gameplay haven't changed almost at all and in most cases, it got even worse.

[@childofthesun32]

@@Rattopaz Oh yeah, the experience hasn't gotten better, probably even worse and the graphics have gotten way better. I'm thinking more in terms of the "interface between game and our experience" has been overall improving on average. A lot of games are becoming more like realistic simulations with what's possible, and sure maybe it's implemented poorly a lot of the time, but on average, things are improving. Like, I was very into RPGs in the 80s and 90s, so when more games started incorporating RPG elements, I liked that. Now more and more games are implementing survival/realism elements. I like that too.

Nope, SORRY. The game is not multichromatic, and the robot use his single stilt to jump. It does not walk.
