I used to own a Spectrum and never really considered the C64 until the day my head was turned when a friend showed me Sanxion. Hearing that glorious score by Rob Hubbard as the game loaded, then followed by the sheer speed of the game and how good it all looked (programmed by Stavros Fasoulas, if memory serves) made me sell "Old Rubber" and switch to the beige behemoth. I loved that computer. I even invested in a disc drive and a printer for it, so I could use it for other things, and then picked up a Freeze Frame and an Action Replay so I could dump games onto disc. But I kept the tape deck for playing Sanxion, I couldn't do without my fix of "Thalamusic".

You forgot to mention Ben Daglish's excellent musical score for The Last Ninja. Some of the best ever for the system.

Not gonna lie, the thing I like best about Uridium is how smooth that ship's turning animation is. Like, that is a VERY nice animation.

Trenz is a genius. He pushed the limits of the C64 with Turrican 2 and the limits of the SNES with Rendering Ranger R2

My favorite game on the C64 was Pitstop II. Two player game with a split screen. I think that made it ahead of its time.

The one 3D game that impressed me the most on the ol' bread bin was Fighter Bomber by Activision. A couple of adventure games that also blew me away back in the day was Maniac Mansion and Zak McCracken. And Times of Lore - where you could even save your game on a blank tape!

3D Stunt Car Racer, man! I was never a huge fan of it, but getting semi-filled polygons running at that speed was a heck of an achievement.

Indian Jones and the Last Crusade by Lucas Games impresses me very much.

Turrican II was the game I was really amazed when first saw it, from the graphics to gameplay to music, all were among the best you can see on a C64, I'll place it at n1 on my list.

Wizball was the best 2 player game I had ever seen at the time. One game me and my mate finished to the end. The gameplay is pretty unique.

Pitstop II was a brilliant two player game, probably the best. When you were both driving full speed at 251mph the sound of the engines really sang and got you ultra competitive. After a nine lap race trying not to blow a tyre or run out of fuel it was a great feeling to come out the victor!

What always amazed me was the jousting scene (first person scene) in the Defender of the Crown, sure it was hard to win, but seeing the attacking knight and horse running towards you was just amazing.

I was thinking the game "the Last V8" was totally impressive.A bit difficult,great graphics and music and speaking voices to boot. Such a great game!
