@TheMagicM

Got any game recommendations for the C64? Space Taxi is on the list to try out by a friend.


*I* like the following:

Defender of the Crown
Elite
Commando
Paradroid
Uridium
Bruce Lee (I beat it!!)
Pitstop 2
Impossible Mission
Stunt Car Racer


...there's so many that I like.. When I got the book and cracked it open...man..it brought back memories.  I'm glad I still have my C64 emu.

I see you like C64 games, check out this game, just released in Dec 2011 called C64anabalt,  http://noname.c64.org/csdb/release/?id=103143
Been playing that for 2 days now on my real C64 on 50in LCD!
You can also get it on iPhone, android and Web.


Just downloaded it.. I will try it out.  Thanks!!!
