what are your favorite demos?
« on: October 15, 2012, 09:46:55 PM »
Hi all. Im getting some friends over this weekend and ofcourse Im going to show them my c64 and Amiga. Thankfully they know quite a bit about the demoscene and are aware of the limitations of those platforms. However they have never seen a commodore machine in real life! What are the best demos I can show to them? Keep in mind I have 060 / PPC / AGA / CGX / 256MB so I can run almost anything. Ofcourse I have a few of my own favorites in mind:
 
Skarla - We ride our enemies
TBL - Tint, Starstruck
Mellow Chips - Rise
Potion - Planet Potion
MAWI - ????
Impulse - Muscles
Scoopex - 1000%

As you can see, Im sort of stuck in 1996 and Im missing out on the more recent efforts. Can someone help me out?

Thanks so far, will for sure get those, too. But some newer titles are still very welcome!

Thanks again, some nice suggestions although I tend to ignore the very old releases here. @pVc thanks, that list is excellent! Had so much fun looking them up on youtube and was in for quite some surprises. Have to say that my all-time favorite is still Starstruck by TBL but have written down many releases from Ephidrena, Loonies and Elude, too.

Britelite, no doubt.. Your name pops up everywhere :)

Are you the same Britelite that worked on Byterapers - Extreme?

Sorry, I swear I saw your name somewhere in a c64 prod that I saw last week and was wondering if you were the same guy.

BTW suggestions for good c64 demos are welcome, too. My favorite is still Edge of Disgrace but I love the Byterapers releases too.

Thanks, think Ive seen most of them then!

Have just noticed you mention Extremes as your fav demo on pouet, must have mixed that up in my mind somehow. Anyway, you are one of the scene veterans, that I knew :)
