jeep command
outrun

I grew up with the C64 too, before moving on to an amiga. I've still got my C64 and all my games. Some games were fantastic, I used to spend hours on it. It just goes to prove that good graphics don't make a good game. _________________
Any purchase I make is on the understanding I own the original else they will be destroyed within 24 hrs
i had one to, was my first ever console, dont really remember the games though, i was only about 5, i remember having platoon and a terminator game.... thats about it though lol _________________ you must own the original copy or destroy the backup copy supplied within 24hrs, as i do.

My brother was well into the 64, he was one of the first in our town to crack and train games.. In fact he used to be a member of Front, Triad and Fairlight and used to write demos and cracks for loads of the games in the day..
I remember playing on katakis, monster boy in wonderland, Lightforce, Delta, Uridium, trap, monty mole, Loco / Suicide Express / Black Thunder and various other ones aswell
