Commodore - the legend continues

Games Links Tools F.A.Q. FTP

[ STORY ]

The legendary computer is still alive, in our hearts, on our desks, and this webpage.
This is just another C=64 supported page.
It contains a list of emulators for download. Next, there are games for downloading (the interesting stuff). Tools may help you with a bit more advanced setups, with some complicated file formats, or if you'd like to connect your PC with some of the older equipment. When you exhaust all of the contents here, there are links with literally EVERYTHING you ever may wish for (for your Commodore, of course :)


In order to improve this pages, I would like to hear from you by e-mail with your comments, suggestions, wishes etc.

For the most updated information, usenet groups are a MUST, lot of scene info is there, you can post your questions which will be answered in a matter of hours. Lots of people willing to help are there. You can start with:
comp.emulators.cbm,
comp.sys.cbm and comp.binaries.cbm

[ emulators ]
CCS64
 

Excellent emulation (most of the games work), good user interface, some useful tricks (if you had only one joystick and you hated port 1/2 switching, it has a solution. It's not free.
  C64S
 

One of the first emulators, quite modern at first. Good emulation, some games not supported, mostly disk format. Main disadvantage: commercial and expensive. Good user interface, less options than ccs 64
   
  VICE
 
Multiplatform emulator, DOS,Linux, W9x, quite a lot of advanced options, some games not supported. Some people claim it is the best (well, I use it). As user-friendly as it gets. It's open-source free software.


[ FTP ]

   - SITES list, taken from comp.sys.cbm newsgroup
   - funet.fi in html form, a major site, actively maintained
   - [Arnold] Norway, dedicated to games, long history
   - [The Badlands] Scene oriented
   - [Gangsta's paradise] Scene
   - [Digital Dungeon], scene, files, demos, mags
   - Frodo, emulators and utils, great [down?]


These anonymous FTP servers are the best way to fill up your disk in a short time and provide a good starting point. They are great and big, so you better know what you want. Some games you may want to download may be not on these servers but on the WWW pages listed further in this document.
