Play C64 Games in Your Browser

Posted by Robert Janelle Nov 20, 2007

This is quite possibly the coolest site I have encountered lately: C64S.com

Basically, the site hosts a Java-based Commodore 64 emulator and tonne of old C64 games essentially turning your web browser into an emulator.

It's easy to waste hours on this site due to the plethora of Commodore 64 games available to play. The big ones are all here: Bubble Bobble (with the original music), Paper Boy, Ghosts and Goblins and more.

Along with the blockbuster titles though, there's plenty of other lesser known games to explore, like some weird text adventure called Dennis Through the Drinking Glass.

Now that the gushing is out of the way, I do need to add, the site is far from perfect. The emulator has a few annoying glitches, so long game play probably isn't going to happen here. Not yet, at least.

For some casual play, you can't be a massive catalog of classic computer games.
