Kim Justice's Top 50 Commodore 64 Games of All-Time

This list has been requested for a fairly long time -- my collection of top 50's and 100 vids has kinda felt incomplete without it, it has to be said. And so, quite simply, here's my Top 50 C64 Games, featuring everything from traditional favourites to some more obscure and esoteric picks. Enjoy!

[@patsfan4life]

memories.... wait... unless you meant the ROM on the SID itself?!? 😂

[@scottbreon9448]

Of course the quality of the tune depending on the quality of the musician. Listen to any SID from Jim Cuomo, and you wish there was a mute button. LMAO

@Dalle Smalhals Look up the music for Intergalactic Cage Match, a shit tune for a shit game

[@CondemnedToBeMe]

It's really weird that a system from 1981 sounds so damn good, it sounds damn good!!

[@skybluemonty]

The golf commentator after the shot was made in number 29 was amazing use of the sound of the c64

[@qster]

Loved watching this so much. Brought back a lot of memories I didn't know I still had.

[@jmogler]

Microprose Soccer was one of the best soccer games on the system. You could literally play an entire world cup including qualifying round robin groups and knockout rounds. You could play as any of 36 world teams each with varying degrees of strengths and weaknesses. And then you had arena soccer on the reverse side with the same formula only US cities and states. Gameplay felt good with a nice charge up kick, tackling, banana kicks and you could even curl the ball. It was the Sensible Soccer of the C64.

[@patsfan4life]

The best soccer sim on the system! But no other decent competitors really..... none very playable

[@Jayfive276]

Also the players spinning around when trying to do sliding tackles in the rain. Also the replays with authentic video tape rewinding effects Also the cracking music

[@jmogler]

@@scottbreon9448 I loved international soccer as well. This one was unique in that you could make the computer play itself. As a kid I would run my own seasons and leagues using pen & paper using the CPU vs CPU mode to simulate games.

One of my favorites that isn't on this list is Sid Meier's Pirates.

[@davedogge2280]

the only downer about that game is that the disk version had some extras that the cassette version didn't; or did I dream this ?

[@maxsmarts8210]

@@davedogge2280 Pirates in cassette ?? mmmm I dont think so.

[@MsOpportunity68]

@@davedogge2280 If I remember rightly, the disk version had a sort of strategy mini game when you attacked the towns from land, whereas the tape version omitted this and instead put you straight into a sword fight to take the fort.

[@branimirbozak]

@@MsOpportunity68 If I remember correctly, when attacking towns from land, you engaged in combat on the terrain in front of the fort, with forest, obstacles and such. Some towns were hard to attack from the sea side, since you only used one ship for attack with maxed out crew on that ship, and the fortification always had a lot of fire power. Havana, Panama and similar towns, needed to be attacked from land, because you get full crew compliment, easy to loose them in combat and reduce numbers to keep morale high after plundering, and also, quite important, attacking from land was a way to plunder a town without getting noticed beacause, sometimes - attacking from the seaside meant that the town hid most of the gold and other stuff before you conquered it. My personal fav on C64!

[@MsOpportunity68]

@@branimirbozak That was correct for the disk version of the game. One the tape version however this land battle section was missing so you would walk your crew into town from the landward side to attack the fort with the maximum number of men.

The satisfaction when you’d filled all the colours was off the charts 😂

[@vitusdoom]

The C64 was a huge part of my childhood. My favourite game which I played to death as an 8 yr old was Barry Mcguigans Boxing. Great gameplay and longevity. Working your way up the world rankings. So addictive. Loved this video Kim, thank you!

[@blindtruth4614]

Missing out Elite and Kick Start 2 is criminal both phenomenal games.

[@cyrixinstead4592]

ELITE was far better on the BBC model B or even the Spectrum, the slow CPU of the 64 did this particular game no favours at all.

[@meetoo594]

Elite was a pretty boring game after a while and the c64 one was slower than the speccy one. Beautiful bit of coding considering the memory limitations though. I think starion on spectrum was a more enjoyable game, although it had a bug that Made it impossible to complete.

[@scottbreon9448]

Elite was SLOW AS MOLASSES on the C64. Both the Spectrum and BBC versions were far better. The only games slower on the C64 were the Freescape games.. The Commodore 128 version was a TAD bit faster, but the original C64 version was utter pants. I perfer games that don't run at 0.000000000000006 FPS

The sentinel is one of the most engrossing and unique games ever on any system. Easily a top 5. Very few games managed such an atmospheric setting and giving the player moments of pure panic.

[@Trenchbroom]

Nice list. As an American C64 user I certainly have 20 or I think are missing, but so it goes; the cross-pond differences in gaming cultures is one of the C64's strengths IMO. Learned about a few games I've never played, so that should be fun. Keep up the excellent retrogaming work, Kim!

Pretty much a definitive list of C64 classics! you missed a few of my favs but thats inevitable. I've played every one and they're all great, not really surprised with the top 5, Wizball deseveres the top spot totally, absolute classic. Great vid KIm :)

[@richpickings2845]

This is an awesome top 50 Kim. I must have had 90% of this list and more. I remember the Way of the Exploding fist tape not working once so I loaded it again, turning the volume up sometimes got a game to work...and I forgot about the scream when it loaded...I crapped myself.

[@Retro_B8]

My favourite channel and my favourite machine. Awesome!!! But, haha, creatures 1 or 2 was missing for me! Amazing video!!!

[@kylereece1979]

Yet another brilliant list to binge through! Of all the best of lists you do, I think this one is gonna be the most meaningful to me. It was Christmas 1990 when I got my c64. Its still in the brothers house, and it works perfectly. I got the Night Moves and Mind Benders packs with them. The Night Moves pack contains one of my fave c64 games- Midnight Resistance. Still a brilliant Contra style shoot em up. Terrific soundtrack that instantly takes me back to those times. Other favourites- Last Ninja 2, Creatures , the Turrican series, Platoon, Salamander. Most of the games I loved in general contain soundtracks that I listen to all the time to this very day. Thanks for making this list!

[@OperationPhantom]

As someone who didn't grow up with the system I think you made a fantastic list, which clearly shows you put effort into it. And it's OK to keep mentioning the soundtracks to games, that was one of the great joys of growing up with the system (so to speak) anyway. Sometimes it was even the only redeemable feature. Yes, Knucklebusters, I'm looking at you.

[@joypadretro2797]

i really like these video's. It's not the videogames, it's your fun comments and bits of info.

[@BeyondTheScanlines]

Turrican II wasn't Trenz's last C64 game - he'd put out another shmup (Enforcer: Fullmetal Megablaster) a year later (on the German Golden Disk 64 magazine). Well worth checking out, as it is such a great improvement on what he did with Katakis - far more frentic, technically accomplished and oh so much fun.

[@CommanderGrog]

True! I was positively shocked when I bought the Golden Disk back then. Enforcer really is in a class of its own. Definitely recommended!

[@bobfromsoireegames4309]

That's correct

[@medkow7415]

Street Rod was one of my all time favorites. I still don't think there is a modern car game that gives me the same feelings as that game did.

[@collectivesartori]

Superb collection and well argued for an “arcade fan”. Excellent choice for #1. And well done on the shout out to Parallax, wrongly omitted on many such lists.

[@carlosfandango2419]

So, being of 'that' age I had a pong machine followed by an Atari VCS. Then a Spectrum but my heart always belonged to Commodore prior to the Playstation era. The games I enjoyed included - Choplifter, Beach-Head, Dropzone, The Sentinal, Ghostbusters, Impossible Mission, Kennedy Approach, Leaderboard Golf, Speedking, Thrust, Pitstop 2, Buggy Boy and Falcon Patrol. Back in the day when it took maybe 10 mins to load a game and some serious imagination was required. Many, many hours lost to this system, then the Amiga arrived...................

[@kevtheschmidt]

Wow, lots of memories here! Some others I loved: Infiltrator II, Raid over Moscow, Raid over Bungling Bay, Choplifter, Gunship, F19 Stealth, Lode Runner, Gyruss, Beachhead II, Ballblazer, Winter Games... so many classics!

[@kloakovalimonada]

I still remember the tunes from Law of the West by the rather unknown but great composer Ed Bogas. He also did the equally marvelous soundtrack to Murder on the Mississippi.

[@grantd165]

Great stuff and like all personal lists it can't be wrong because it's yours.

[@Zaxtor99]

Great video, and I am very happy you included Montezuma's Revenge in this list. I personally would argue that a type in game from Compute!'s Gazette December 1988 magazine was better than half of the games that made your top 50. I think anyone who had the pleasure of playing Crossroads II: Pandemonium would agree with me as well! ..Still very good video, much respect for making this!

I loved Action Biker. One of the best budget games for the C64. The in-game tune is one that, even if it has been years since I played it, will suddenly pop into my head and refuse to leave for days.

[@SequenceKomplete]

I genuinely think Action Biker on C64 was the game that inspired my love of free roaming games. It was like the GTA of it’s time (only on a bike with no missions and stuff). I played it at a mate’s house and had to have it. Imagine what I felt like when I got my spectrum version home...

Action Biker (though on the Atari in my case) is the first and only game to make me ragequit so hard I tried to destroy the disk so I could never play it again. After several days of playing and slowly getting better and finally making it through and collecting all 100 items, I had no idea what "get to the race!" or whatever meant, and once I figured it out and nearly made it to the starting line of the track, I ran out of time and the game ended.

A good list with most of the essentials present and accounted for - and nice to see the underappreciated and truly original Frankie Goes To Hollywood featuring so high, although the not-at-all-impossible and still-brilliant-to-this-day Impossible Mission really deserves a top five spot (it's well worth your time even now, whereas the likes of Barbarian really aren't). It's certainly more of a jewel in the crown of the C64 than that ropey Super Mario clone IMO. C64 Commando is just far too short, if I was going to pick one of Elite's arcade conversions, the heart says Ghosts 'n' Goblins but the head says Buggy Boy. For quirky personal preference; games that I love that I don't expect others to necessarily see the appeal: Skate Rock and IBall are the ones I keep coming back to.
