anyhow, has anyone ever heard of a game called action biker for c64?

it was really cool (the vice city of its day) and i actually came across it free, by saving empty wrappers of prawn cocktail skips!!!

those were the days!!:p

[Sel The Don]

Well, sorry, I didn't realise that your brain power doesn't stretch as far as reading posts and that your humour got shot off in the second world war, but if you really want to know, my fav game on the c64 is Turrican 2.

;) ;)

[borofc12001]

[Sel The Don]

Hey mate, there was never any hard feelings in the first place, anyway, at least you don't support Man U! :D

[borofc12001]

[Sel The Don]

Fingers crossed for the Boro, I'm hoping that Liverpool do well this season.

[borofc12001]

yes, we noramlly are quite useful against liverpool!

i dont want us to go down, but theres always a big club goes down, what about spurs..??

[Sel The Don]

I can stomach Spurs, I know it 'aint gonna happen but I would love to see Man U go down!:D

I say Dizzy. For me it´s the best Codemasters game. But also I like the games Kwik Knax, Treasure Island Dizzy, Cj´s Elephant Antics, CJ in a place that I don´t remember now :D, Dizzy Prince of the Yolkfolk, Seymour Goes The Movies is an okay game. OH, and there are an football game, 4 Soccers, or a similar name, what I like too.

Anyone hear about a game called Kickstart 2 it woz cool how you could build your own track...

I remember Kickstart 2. I never had patience for creating scenary in the level editor, but I played very much that game. It was very cool playing with other person. :D I laughed a lot when the guy in the motocross (or bike? :D ) fall from his vehicle and the sound in that moment was very funny. :D Uuuf, was a difficult game. ;)

my fav games r as follows

*manic miner
*no second prize(awsome amiga vector graph bike sim)
*rainbow island
*vroom (another awsome drive sim 4 the amiga)
*1942

3D Deathrace and US Aliens on the Speccy.

Plus one when you where a Wizard and had to collect herbs and such like. Does anybody remember it

But the best was Spy v Spy playing against a mate. So much fun

Is that the one where you had like an evil twin who was also trying to collect herbs? If so it was Feud :)

Oh, just remembered about Duet too, a game similar to Gauntlet but was set during the war. Had to collect snips to cut the barbed wire, collect food, shoot the enemy etc. Also similar to Into The Eagles Nest which was great too :)

Feud that was is, I wasted so much time on that game lol

I'm 32 now and still waste too much time on video games

[Brumbies]

my favorite C64 games were "red storm rising" based on the tom clancy book, and a game called pirates where you cruised the ocean, plundering cities and boarding ships. i've been looking for a similar game to pirates on the playstation 2 but i can't.

my fave game was robocop v terminator on the mega drive:D a true classic by sega!!!!:clap:

[Dakyras]

Fave Codemasters games on the Speccy were:

Dizzy
Super Stuntman
ATV Simulator (think that was Codemasters)

Fave overall games on Speccy were probably:

Dizzy
Sidearms
Finders Keepers
Ant Attack

Fave retro games of all time are:

Dungeon Master (Amiga / ST)
Millenium 2.2 (ST)
Stuntcar Racer (Amiga)
Populous (Amiga / ST)

I will probably think of more though.....

Yeah that was a great game, although I was always rubbish in the sword fights! :eek: The cannon battles against other ships were cool, and a nice combination of an action and trading game. There was a kinda similar game on the Speccy which wasn't too bad called Tai-Pan.

[Brumbies]

yea, i loved laying seige to cities, and boarding the galleons, and getting thousands of pieces of gold. trading was a little boring, but the game was great. especially on the ole c64, a game ahead of its time.

[Sel The Don]

Can anyone remember the Enlightment Druid 2? Now that was a reaaly cool game.
