One of the most amazing aspects of the C=64/128 were the modem games (like Modem Wars!) Modem games were so advanced on the C=64, that the IBM "compatibles" didn't catch up till 10 years later. I remember using my 1200baud CBM modem to play chess and Modem Wars with a friend of mine across the nation. That was just so mind blowing. It's sad that newer C=64 games don't make use of the amazing modem hardware of the time.

These games are amazing !!. I think its high time the C 64 had a revival. The programming language was really good and many of us have their memories entangled with The C64. So knowing new games and programmes are still being made for The C64 is really very encouraging. It was one of the most powerful computers in the 80s era and a lot more can be done in this domain development. Now new versions are also being released for C64 and The Amiga computers.

@@curcumin417 Well, not me though :D I never really regarded assembler as an actual programming language (like Algol, Simula, or Modula), more like processor code. At "high school", we had some dudes doing arcade like games in the semi compiling BASIC of the ABC 800. And I had also used Acorn Atom, BBC Micro and HP computers. So I was genuinely dissapointed when I tried M$ BASIC for the first time, i.e. the one used in the Apple II and VIC 64. It was slow and simplistic, and also quite buggy. I personally programmed the Z80 much more than the contemporary 6502, both as a hobbyist and professionally. The 6502 was mainly the latter for my part. (We interfaced the Apple II to our newly developed (Z80 based) lab equipment. The Apple II was common at companies and universities at the time. But I had to translate most BASIC into 6502 asm when I ported it from ABC 80 to Apple II, thanks to M$.)

By the way, for Boulderdash fanatics, 95% of the original (commercial) Motorola 68K source code for Rockford on the Amiga can be found on the Fred Fish collection.

Or some games like Mail Order Monsters or Racing Destruction. Or weird shit like Frankie Goes To Hollywood. Things that you couldn't play in an arcade.

I suspect that I've forgotten more tricks and techniques in programming the C64 than most people knew. This may sound conceited, but I also know that there were so many very talented people that knew so much more than I ever did. This kind of nostalgia makes me really miss those days, looking at effects and working out how to do them, but also having such respect for those that did them in the first place. It's odd that I never really hankered after these days but I suspect that this was because I got distracted by the Amiga instead...
