Great stuff, but honestly I wish you WERE prattling on the whole time :D would have loved to hear your takes and memories associated with the various titles. An hour of you waxing nostalgic about your C64 favorites would have been most welcome!
@@oldstylegaming love your channel man... Between you and Kim Justice, this console-loving yank has learned so much about the 80s home micros! I actually ended up buying myself a C64 recently and started messing around with Basic just for fun, despite being a professional programmer who started with C++ 😅 something about the old micros is just so accessible and alluring, and I'm having a ton of fun playing Armalyte, Katakis, Soul Force... Who knew the C64 had so many great shooters!
Racing Destruction Set looks like a Precursor to Rock'n'Roll Racing. I remember you could alter the physics and gravity, etc. Ah... Good memories. Thank you mate 😊
Great list. What I like about your videos is that everything is clearly labelled, year and name, and you don't spend too much time on each title, just enough to appreciate the gameplay. So many other UA-camrs spend way too long, showing repetitive game footage.
it would have literally taken me ages to add a comment to each of these, and as the clips are around 30 secs long it would have ended up very generic so decided against it...but dont worry ill be doing voice overs on my normal content
Great video as always, thank you for taking the time to make this! Pirates in second place, Sid Meyer is my hero! I do believe that Batman, Paradroid, the untouchables, and especially commando deserved a higher place in the list. GI Joe should've been in the list in my opinion but still this list is awesome and I believe every C64 fan will be happy with it, thank you OSG!
Out of the C64 games that I play to this day - only Into The Eagle's Nest and Snokie doesn't get a mention in this video and as everyone has different tastes I think this is a great list you have compiled here.
Thank you for this montage. There are some games I haven't played in quite a while, and it was great to see them being played again! The only 2 I wish you would have included were Karateka and Forbidden Forrest. Thanks again!! Long live the great C64!!!
Fantastic video. Amazing to think how many great games NOT on this list. The memories I have of this machine. 28500 games on the C64 Gamebase and its still being updated.
The thing is i like doing them, the nostalgia i get from each game is immense...i mean i like doing the comparison videos but playing the same game over and over on each system can be soul destroying unless it was for something like stunt car racer which was great on all systems
Slicks is a new one to me. I love that it uses smaller sprites. I'd love to combine those graphics with Autoduel (an earlier C64 game with sluggish graphics).
A massive thanks for bringing back so many happy memories....I would say I played and enjoyed 85 or so of them games....I have never been a big fan of platformers (probably because my timing was crap) so I would have left them out and added Rescue on Fractulus, Koronis Rift, Park Patrol, Dropzone, Rocketball, Spy vs Spy, Rock and Bolt and Attack of the Mutant Llamas I really appreciate the time you took to compile this list and I reckon 80+ of these games woul be on every C64 owners top 100
Great list, huge effort. Even if giving mini-reviews for all 100 games would have been too much, I'd still have liked to heard you announce the name and rank of each game. Your voice is great, and sometimes I try to do my own video prep while half-watching / half-listening to videos, so narration is always good in my book. Maybe next time ;)
A brilliant list, love watching all your retrospectives. I would have included Starquake, Zolyx and Dropzone in my Top 100 C64 games, in fact, all those 3 games would fall within my Top 30.
Fantastic Channel. I got a Commodore 64 when I was around 12. I love hearing you talk about the games I played. Brings me right back to those awesome days. I started with the Atari 2600. Played Coleco and Intellivison. Loved them all. But things changed when my Dad bought me the greatest gaming machine ever created lol. Well to me it is. I have just watched a few of your videos so not sure if some of my Gotto games you ever played or enjoyed. But I am 100% watching everything you posted. It's like a mirror into my childhood. Some of my Favorite all time C-64 games were. Seven Cities of Gold. Randon generated map. adventure. Castle Wolfenstein . one of the first stealth based games. Sammy Lightfoot. Black Tiger. introduced the term Zenny coin I believe. Was used as in store currency The Detective Game. and I can't forget Samantha Fox Poker game.. lol. Love the Channel and wish ya the best.
Great list! It is even difficult to choose the 100 best without missing some very good games. What I miss is some 3d games like Mercenary, Space Rogue or Castle Master. Anyway, very good job on the list and it is nice to see that people keep C64 alive.
Nice list, great work thanks! Always cool to see the old favorites I'd forgotten about and ones I missed back in the day (I shoulda played the Lucas Arts ones!) Well I guess we all have to add the games we would have included in the list :) . For me they would be; Deflektor, Park Patrol and Exile.
I was around 12 years old when my Dad bought me a C-64 with a modem and printer. My favorite system off all time. I would take the bus Downtown where there were 2 Arcades next to each other. One was 18 and over because they showed peep shows or something. I think it showed X rated movies upstairs. I hung out in the all ages Arcade for hours. I would come home smelling like cigarette smoke but it was worth it. What the Commodore 64 did for me was to bring these Arcades into my home. Some of my all time Favorite C-64 games were.. Seven Cities of gold. Montezuma revenge. Forbidden forest Castle Wolfenstein Bruce Lee Aztec Test Drive The Detective So so so many. Thanks for your channel and bringing back some amazing memories
Wow, must have been quite a process to come with the list, congrats! The games missing for ME is Druid, Quedex and Hyper Sports. Maybe Nebulus and Jet Set Willy. And Shootem up Construction Kit. 😄
What a great list. I haven’t played a lot of them including Turrican games. I’ve never thought of playing Bards Tale or Stunt car. I love seeing people’s personal history with the greatest computer ever made. Top top vid.
Now I know why you've been quiet for the last week! Big list m8, good work! A pretty much definitive list of great C64 games here, played most of em, I'd change the order of some and where's Mercenary!? Like you said it's your list so it's all subjective. Great vid :)
Fantastic video OSG. I had so many of these games when I was a kid and this brings back so many great memories. Good work sir and keep it up :) Maybe I should see if my old C64 thats gathering dust still works....
Great list! Zak McKracken, what a fantastic game. I still play it from time to time even if I know the solutions to all puzzles in my sleep. Gnik sisi vle!
OMG, this brings back some great memories. I miss my C64 and Amiga. I loved all those games from EPYX. So many others here too were just a blast to play
i've spent countless hours with NewZealand story Rodland, Creatures, Rainbow island, Fort apocalypse, Summer Games 2 , Bubble Bobble and ghost n goblins, such good times as a kid
C64 was my first foray into gaming - my folks had one and when I was old enough I started playing too. Classic machine. I remember many of these amazing games.
Great video thanks for the immense effort. I think i would have placed Elite a bit higher hehe. My favourite games were Shadowfire (great intro music), Solo Flight and a little known game called System 15000 from Ferranti software, it was a hacking game where you had to dial up simulated BBS's to solve a crime... great memories!
Great video. Sent me back to my childhood and boy some great music there. I remember when Zzap! reviewed The Sentinel and gave it a Gold Medal but no score. Was too unique to give a score.
Its an amazing feat of coding mate , yeah its a bit slow and hard to get into but thats just cos it goes against all conventions that we are used to e.g. not being able to move without creating another bot and teleporting into it. Hey mate im going to put a message out to all patreons but wanted to thank you for watching my stuff and commenting all the time :-)
hey mate I dont know if you can help me, I am nostalgically searching for an C64 game, which, I cant remember the title or name, I can only vaguely remember the cover was with famous people drawn on a funny cartoon way (I think they were presidents), and also a Circus game which was on a cartridge for the C128..... And this beat em up which had the statue of liberty on the cover, I forgot the 3 titles...
So im guessing that the circus game could either be circus attractions or fiendish Freddie's big top o fun. And i would say the beat em up with the statue of liberty on the front was International Karate
@@oldstylegaming it was after earth or something. the cover on the tape was a broken statue of liberty and the character I think had red clothes. the circus game was that one indeed. epic memories on that one
Great list. I spent hours and hours and hours on the Epyx sports sims and Leaderboard golf. I'm still good at Leaderboard but was even better at it as a teenager.
Another great video 👍🏻 Have never owned a C64 but definitely want to get one at some point. Always surprises me the difference in graphics and sound across the range of games though. Some wouldn't look out of place on an Atari 2600 while others you wouldn't be disappointed with if you saw them on a 16 bit system! Of course, it's the gameplay that really counts though 😀
Awesome video. Like you say in the beginning, everyone's gonna have BIG differences in their lists, and to put together such a list is a complete labour of love. Covered most of my all time favourites (IK+, Elite, Impossible Mission, Archon... etc.etc.). As for me I wouldn't know where to start doing a top 100, let alone in order. Some games I'd have on my list that don't appear here would be: Rocketball, American 3D Pool, Beamrider, Bezerk Redux, David's Midnight Magic, Donkey Kong [2016],Toy Bizarre, Dino Eggs, Spindizzy, Crossfire, Gorf, Drelbs, Thrust, Lady Pac, Dropzone, Eagle Empire, Forbidden Forest, Encounter, TRAZ, Scramble version 1.14, Fetris, Bop n Rumble, TILT, Super Pipeline 1 and 2, SPLAT!, Smash T.V, Codename Mat 2, Guardian, Neptune Lander, High Noon, Fortress of Narzod, Galencia)..........The list is really endless, so again well done for creating a superb Top 100.
Great to see some contemporary games in there. Soul Force is a corker..... And from what I am reading Brierley Witch Chronicles is stunning as well (but was only just released in last few weeks.....so that might have to wait for a future top 100 redux 😉) . Good work as ever fella....so many classics in here 👍
Mammoth effort mate.. love your vids. But.... it would have been amazing to hear your commentary on each game. To be honest i am sure thats why we all love your channel and why we sub and keep coming back 👍 I know it would have been an insane amount of work though but yeah great vid mate love your work. My ultimate request would be a reupload of this with your thoughts/quick review of each game. If you did it would have to be the ultimate c64 vid on youtube for sure.
Loved kick-start 2. Making your own levels were class and if I remember right it only costs about 3 pounds to buy. Also, loved usagi but for 30 years I couldn't for the life of me remember the name. Thank you. 😊
Thrust was one of my favourites that I think should be on the list, killer soundtrack as well. Impossible Mission is probably my favourite ever C64 game and I have been playing this recently, it's still such a playable game.
I found my old C64 in the basement so I set it back up in my living room. Definitely brings back a lot of memories, I spent a ton of time on that thing as a kid. :)
I bet this took some time and some tough decisions! Observations(I'm going to have to stop and pause a bit!) - Hard 'n' heavy - doesn't Ruff 'n' tumble look remarkably similar?! I mean even a bit beyond influenced by... Creatures 1 & 2 - I have to remind myself everytime i see the title that its most definitely not the creatures games on the PC I played! Lions of he Universe and soul force - Is that parallax scrolling of a form? the way the background is moving in relation to the foreground? Shadow over Hawksmill - that's some creepy atmosphere going on there! Ultima 5, I'm playing through 4 on master system emulation right now! I've had to trawl the internet to find things like the spellbook and the map but... Mayhem in monsterland looks like an Amiga game?! Commando - That music just explodes out doesn't it! I could have commented on far more but i was already dragging on, So great video and I hope your lad is doing well with the football! :)
Hard N Heavy was set to be the great giana sisters 2 but after nintendo forced the cease and desist on that game it was reskinned and became hard n heavy
Bubble Bobble really brought back some memories. I wish i could find 2 more games from my childhood. A mega man(star boy) like game and Mr. bo bo (i think)
The Commodore factory was in my home town so it was the height of cool when I was kid to own one. I was privileged enough to have both a 16 & 64. Just seeing Uridium again has made me smile. Honourable shout out to Psycho Hopper 😊
Great list, glad to see pirates near the top, no idea why the magazines in the UK didn't like it. Seems nearly universally loved by everyone that played it.
Don't have an hour to watch all the way through, but fun scanning over the memories. Had a good time with Leaderboard golf. There were some good ones I didn't see in the list - did you cover the AD&D games (like Pool of Radiance), Ghostbusters, Dragon Wars, Zaxxon, Gauntlet, or any of the *old* text based games that were released? I still keep copies of Zork around in Linux. I also vaguely remember a dungeon building game, but not the name. There was another game for 2 players at a time with stick figures, and a lot of other old arcade style games I enjoyed. In short, so many memories of the good old days.
I havent really covered those genres as such...i mean ive included some in videos but really they dont make great viewing even if they were really entertaining to the player
That's some video to compile, well done! I'd have added in Tapper and taken out Little Computer People. LCP was tedious and boring at the time and only got worse with age. So little to do, and you can't even kill the little sod! 🙂
This video brings back a lot of fine memories! Thanks for putting this together❤️ If I may ask, do you know if there is a system which plays these games. Would be nice tonnage another go at some titles😊
@@oldstylegaming I was more looking for a plug-and-play solution. After watching your video I searched for something and found the Superconsole X Pro. Could be a nice option, but will do more research first. Maybe there are better options. So if you have any tips they are welcome🙏🏻
Love ur work OSG. I would have had Last Ninja, Enigma Force, Paradroid, IntKarate+, Maniac Mansion, Activision Mario Bros in my top list with Frankie as the number 1. I think platformers were junk on C64, but thats just my opinion.
Damn buddy over an hour long this is going to be good an monotone voice nah mate try being a scouser well sorta as i live on the other side of the river tbf haha. going to say this now as am going to kick back and watch this and smile everytime i see a game i over played back in the day. Great work as always buddy an roll on the next one.
Still watching whilst commenting never played or knew about raid over moscow please do a review really peaked my interest. EDIT: Nice selection but you missed IO thought you was a shump fan Zamzara, Kane, Kung Fu Master also would have put last ninja remix over last ninja 2 it was the better version on C64 so many others missed but a great list none the less very hard to do a top 100 on the trusty bread bin.
I missed a few shooters mate like catalypse, enforcer etc there are just so many good one... same with zamzara etc, i could have probs done 200 without running out of top class games...what other 8 bit delivered a catalogue as good as the c64?
Great list, granted, but do I have a false memory telling me Track ‘n’ Field and Hypersports should’ve totally been here? Few others but those 2 particularly given the inclusion of the other events Games games! Also Monty On the Run for the music alone XD
Looks like another OSG folder is going on my MiSTer and U1641II+. The "OSG Hidden Gems" folder gets a lot of use already and I expect the pending "OSG Top 100" will as well. Would love to eventually get your top 10 hidden gems for games beginning with numbers. I have the one done by another gentleman which was inspired by your series but it's just not the same.

This is quickly becoming my favorite classic gaming channel. Thank you for all of your hard work, sir!
Aw thanks mate
@@oldstylegaming he's got a good point, Fallen in love with your channel myself.
Yeah OSG keeps it nice and simple - so people like me don't get confused.
@@DaveVelociraptor lol
Great stuff, but honestly I wish you WERE prattling on the whole time :D would have loved to hear your takes and memories associated with the various titles. An hour of you waxing nostalgic about your C64 favorites would have been most welcome!
Taken onboard
@@oldstylegaming love your channel man... Between you and Kim Justice, this console-loving yank has learned so much about the 80s home micros! I actually ended up buying myself a C64 recently and started messing around with Basic just for fun, despite being a professional programmer who started with C++ 😅 something about the old micros is just so accessible and alluring, and I'm having a ton of fun playing Armalyte, Katakis, Soul Force... Who knew the C64 had so many great shooters!
Agreed. An hour of watching random games without some contextual context? Boring......
OMG Flimbo's Quest, another game I forgotten about seeing it takes me back !!!!!!!!!!!!
Racing Destruction Set looks like a Precursor to Rock'n'Roll Racing. I remember you could alter the physics and gravity, etc. Ah... Good memories. Thank you mate 😊
Great list. What I like about your videos is that everything is clearly labelled, year and name, and you don't spend too much time on each title, just enough to appreciate the gameplay. So many other UA-camrs spend way too long, showing repetitive game footage.
I appreciate that!
Nooooo! we love your monotome voice! 😁👍🏻 *getting chips and beer*
it would have literally taken me ages to add a comment to each of these, and as the clips are around 30 secs long it would have ended up very generic so decided against it...but dont worry ill be doing voice overs on my normal content
Yeah I gues editing this video also would have cost you a lot of time, its cool👍🏻
@@basvanharen2904 this was edited in 3 passes as the cube box turn cant be done with bezels on
Great video as always, thank you for taking the time to make this! Pirates in second place, Sid Meyer is my hero! I do believe that Batman, Paradroid, the untouchables, and especially commando deserved a higher place in the list. GI Joe should've been in the list in my opinion but still this list is awesome and I believe every C64 fan will be happy with it, thank you OSG!
Out of the C64 games that I play to this day - only Into The Eagle's Nest and Snokie doesn't get a mention in this video and as everyone has different tastes I think this is a great list you have compiled here.
Woah, thats a hefty effort! Thanks for sharing your best-of, I will be trying those that I havent played yet ;) Awesome stuff mate.
Well theres a good mix in here mate...new and old
When a video starts with Laser Squad... I know i am in for a treat
An hour of OSG! Can't wait to watch this here
wow so many memories , still a top machine and the games are brill.
Thank you for this montage. There are some games I haven't played in quite a while, and it was great to see them being played again! The only 2 I wish you would have included were Karateka and Forbidden Forrest.
Thanks again!! Long live the great C64!!!
Fantastic video. Amazing to think how many great games NOT on this list. The memories I have of this machine. 28500 games on the C64 Gamebase and its still being updated.

Thanks for keeping the C64 alive, its appreciated.
I like Paradroid, but I always had a love-hate relationship with the "bot-jacking" mini game
Paradriod melted the mind.
I love that the #2 spot was taken by a game largely written in BASIC (Pirates!)
Awesome one hour! Will enjoy this
I love the fact slicks is in there!
If it wasn't for me, you'd have never played it lol
Yeah its a proper racing game that, can't take ya eyes off it for a second... its class
Slicks is a new one to me. I love that it uses smaller sprites. I'd love to combine those graphics with Autoduel (an earlier C64 game with sluggish graphics).
Great list, so many memories. My mother hated computer games back in the day, but she was addicted to krakout.
I didn't remeber Krakout, but i do remember the music so I must have played it a lot.
The begin of arkanoid♥️💪🏽
A massive thanks for bringing back so many happy memories....I would say I played and enjoyed 85 or so of them games....I have never been a big fan of platformers (probably because my timing was crap) so I would have left them out and added Rescue on Fractulus, Koronis Rift, Park Patrol, Dropzone, Rocketball, Spy vs Spy, Rock and Bolt and Attack of the Mutant Llamas
I really appreciate the time you took to compile this list and I reckon 80+ of these games woul be on every C64 owners top 100
A magic amount of patience to put that together OSG ! Some games in there that I have never played or heard of 👍
This video has changed order about 20 times in the last 2 days
Great list, huge effort. Even if giving mini-reviews for all 100 games would have been too much, I'd still have liked to heard you announce the name and rank of each game. Your voice is great, and sometimes I try to do my own video prep while half-watching / half-listening to videos, so narration is always good in my book. Maybe next time ;)
Bloody hell. A cracking early Christmas gift. Cheers OSG.
So many wonderful games here , thanks OSG 😍
Great choice of background music during the intro!
A brilliant list, love watching all your retrospectives. I would have included Starquake, Zolyx and Dropzone in my Top 100 C64 games, in fact, all those 3 games would fall within my Top 30.
I was trying to remember a game that I loved playing back in the day and I finally saw it on your video...Beach Head II!! What a fun game!

The Detective Game.
and I can't forget Samantha Fox Poker game.. lol.
Love the Channel and wish ya the best.
Thanks mate
For me Martin Walker's overlooked classic 'Citadel' would be in this list.
Great work as ever. Keep up the brilliant work. Best C64 related content on UA-cam in my opinion!!
Thanks man
Great list! It is even difficult to choose the 100 best without missing some very good games. What I miss is some 3d games like Mercenary, Space Rogue or Castle Master. Anyway, very good job on the list and it is nice to see that people keep C64 alive.
Just one more: Supremacy
Nice list, great work thanks! Always cool to see the old favorites I'd forgotten about and ones I missed back in the day (I shoulda played the Lucas Arts ones!)
Well I guess we all have to add the games we would have included in the list :) . For me they would be; Deflektor, Park Patrol and Exile.

Wow an hour. My goodness. This is going to be great! Thanks for your efforts.
Ooo I will have to wait till I have a quiet night to settle down and watch this badboy. Will be class. I'll rate and comment soon 👍

I know it would have been an insane amount of work though but yeah great vid mate love your work.
My ultimate request would be a reupload of this with your thoughts/quick review of each game.
If you did it would have to be the ultimate c64 vid on youtube for sure.
i can start working on that ;-)
@@oldstylegaming that would be awsome. And worth it i bet 👍
What an awesome video, thank you very much for your time & hard work :)
Once again - brillant video OSG - keep up the great work!
Thanks mate
Loved kick-start 2. Making your own levels were class and if I remember right it only costs about 3 pounds to buy. Also, loved usagi but for 30 years I couldn't for the life of me remember the name. Thank you. 😊
Boy did developers really squeeze the bets out of the C64! Nice list.
oh HELL yes, can't wait to dig into this one after work!!!
Top 100 for C64...that's hard becus theres so many good ones...
Nice looking forward watching this one when the kids are asleep 😉
I LIVED FOR PITSTOP ... the memories... THANKYOU
Me: I need to sleep. YT: wanna see 100 C64 games list? Me: hell yeah!
Thrust was one of my favourites that I think should be on the list, killer soundtrack as well. Impossible Mission is probably my favourite ever C64 game and I have been playing this recently, it's still such a playable game.
Its a huge work, thank you!
Wow that Mario 64 sound is almost identical. Crazy what the SID can do in the right hands!
Wow! Usagi Yojimbo so high? Now we're talking! Great list.
Yeah, I like waffles. I'm sure I wouldn't mind hearing your voice throughout this brilliant video. Thank you.
Great collection congratulations, but I would have also included the first last ninja and fist 2.
The first last ninja is in here mate
@@oldstylegaming Ah sorry mate. :)
I found my old C64 in the basement so I set it back up in my living room. Definitely brings back a lot of memories, I spent a ton of time on that thing as a kid. :)
Like a time machine mate
Surprised to see a boxing game crack the top 100….. I thought that was one sport the ol breadbox really could not handle
Only really this one, i mean there is Bangkok knights too but its not that great and not really boxing
I miss choplifter.. Soon you can add Sonic to your list :-)
It looks great that sonic
I bet this took some time and some tough decisions!
Observations(I'm going to have to stop and pause a bit!) -
Hard 'n' heavy - doesn't Ruff 'n' tumble look remarkably similar?! I mean even a bit beyond influenced by...
Creatures 1 & 2 - I have to remind myself everytime i see the title that its most definitely not the creatures games on the PC I played!
Lions of he Universe and soul force - Is that parallax scrolling of a form? the way the background is moving in relation to the foreground?
Shadow over Hawksmill - that's some creepy atmosphere going on there!
Ultima 5, I'm playing through 4 on master system emulation right now! I've had to trawl the internet to find things like the spellbook and the map but...
Mayhem in monsterland looks like an Amiga game?!
Commando - That music just explodes out doesn't it!
I could have commented on far more but i was already dragging on, So great video and I hope your lad is doing well with the football! :)
Hard N Heavy was set to be the great giana sisters 2 but after nintendo forced the cease and desist on that game it was reskinned and became hard n heavy
So many of my favourites here and the same number 1 also. Sad to see no Myth History in the Making though ;)
Bubble Bobble really brought back some memories. I wish i could find 2 more games from my childhood. A mega man(star boy)
like game and Mr. bo bo (i think)
Great list. But no Salamander. You need arresting for that haha.
The Commodore factory was in my home town so it was the height of cool when I was kid to own one. I was privileged enough to have both a 16 & 64.
Just seeing Uridium again has made me smile. Honourable shout out to Psycho Hopper 😊
Great list, glad to see pirates near the top, no idea why the magazines in the UK didn't like it. Seems nearly universally loved by everyone that played it.
well i think we have seen in the last few weeks that magazines talked out of their arses lol
Some great games I remember well. Surprised _Mail Order Monsters_ wasn't in here though.
Don't have an hour to watch all the way through, but fun scanning over the memories. Had a good time with Leaderboard golf. There were some good ones I didn't see in the list - did you cover the AD&D games (like Pool of Radiance), Ghostbusters, Dragon Wars, Zaxxon, Gauntlet, or any of the *old* text based games that were released? I still keep copies of Zork around in Linux. I also vaguely remember a dungeon building game, but not the name. There was another game for 2 players at a time with stick figures, and a lot of other old arcade style games I enjoyed. In short, so many memories of the good old days.
Yeah i understand mate thats why i put the timestamps in for each game so people can flick :-)
I havent really covered those genres as such...i mean ive included some in videos but really they dont make great viewing even if they were really entertaining to the player
Awesome vid. Who is the artist STE on title screens for ghosts and goblins and a few others like commando? Incredible !
????
That's some video to compile, well done! I'd have added in Tapper and taken out Little Computer People. LCP was tedious and boring at the time and only got worse with age. So little to do, and you can't even kill the little sod! 🙂
This video brings back a lot of fine memories! Thanks for putting this together❤️ If I may ask, do you know if there is a system which plays these games. Would be nice tonnage another go at some titles😊
You can play them on pc using vice emulator
@@oldstylegaming I was more looking for a plug-and-play solution. After watching your video I searched for something and found the Superconsole X Pro. Could be a nice option, but will do more research first. Maybe there are better options. So if you have any tips they are welcome🙏🏻
@@SlowMovingSaddles You could always buy a C64 mini for cheap 2nd hand and side load your own games on if they not on there already
@@SlowMovingSaddles I did a video on the superconsole xcube so you could check that out too
@@oldstylegaming thanks for the tips and great to see your involvement! Wow😊
I agree with the list. 100 games that every one should play.
this really is a big one, over an hour of C64 content.
Great list! Only two games I would have loved seeing are Powerdrift and Citadrl (by Martin Walker)
Love ur work OSG. I would have had Last Ninja, Enigma Force, Paradroid, IntKarate+, Maniac Mansion, Activision Mario Bros in my top list with Frankie as the number 1. I think platformers were junk on C64, but thats just my opinion.
Hey you weren’t lyin! You DID put Project Firestart in there!
Giana Sisters, Head Over Heels, Camelot Warriors…so many great games 100 is not enough!
Damn buddy over an hour long this is going to be good an monotone voice nah mate try being a scouser well sorta as i live on the other side of the river tbf haha. going to say this now as am going to kick back and watch this and smile everytime i see a game i over played back in the day. Great work as always buddy an roll on the next one.
Still watching whilst commenting never played or knew about raid over moscow please do a review really peaked my interest.
EDIT:
Nice selection but you missed IO thought you was a shump fan Zamzara, Kane, Kung Fu Master also would have put last ninja remix over last ninja 2 it was the better version on C64 so many others missed but a great list none the less very hard to do a top 100 on the trusty bread bin.
I missed a few shooters mate like catalypse, enforcer etc there are just so many good one... same with zamzara etc, i could have probs done 200 without running out of top class games...what other 8 bit delivered a catalogue as good as the c64?
Nice list, though I would have liked to hear you talk about the games. Your voice isn't annoying at all. :)
Aw thanks, my voice will return in the next video
Great list, granted, but do I have a false memory telling me Track ‘n’ Field and Hypersports should’ve totally been here?
Few others but those 2 particularly given the inclusion of the other events Games games!
Also Monty On the Run for the music alone XD
Hunchback II was my first c64 game and remained a favourite, shame it didn't make your 100, good list though
Loderunner, BruceLee, Montezuma, Paradroid, ManiacMansion, Gauntlet, StuntCarRacer, InternationalKarate(Fist2), WizardOfWor, LittleComputerPeople
I still have my c64 tucked away with about 150 games. I think I gonna dig it out. It's just where to put it.
Looks like another OSG folder is going on my MiSTer and U1641II+. The "OSG Hidden Gems" folder gets a lot of use already and I expect the pending "OSG Top 100" will as well.
Would love to eventually get your top 10 hidden gems for games beginning with numbers. I have the one done by another gentleman which was inspired by your series but it's just not the same.
Ill look into it mate :-)
