Suicide Strike
Neo-Rio says: Playable shooter game in the spirit of Zaxxon. Not as easy as it seems, but you'll be hooked I guarantee.

Arnie Armchair's Howzat Cricket Game
Neo-Rio says: One of the first games I played on the C64 as it came in the box. Fondly remembered for it's annoying title tune ditty, and the thrashings my family members took at it.

Wicked
graveyardjohn says: A very different game where you encourage your own good spores to grow while defeating the evil spores, helped or hindered along the way by tarot cards. Originally cost me a fiver, and was worth every penny.

Armalyte
Michael Plate says: One of the best shoot'em ups ever. Don't miss playing it in the two-player mode.
|
Bruce Lee
Pugsy says: Simply one of the best platform games ever devised. The difficulty has been set just right so even after you've finished it you still come back for more.
|
Arcade Classics
graveyardjohn says: An excellent Firebird £1.99 game, with four classic arcade games - Spacewar, Snakes, Space Invaders and Asteroids, and a top Hubbard heavy-rock soundtrack.
|
Jackal
Neo-Rio says: This game has a strange history on the C64. The only good version of it was for NTSC computers only. It was really good though, if a bit hard and frustrating, but close to the original arcade game.
|
Paradroid
graveyardjohn says: How could we not include this?! Move from floor to floor, dispatching or taking over robots on the way. A combination of mild shooter and puzzler, this will keep you glued for ages.
|
Flying Ace
Neo-Rio says: Not exactly the arcade "Sky Kid", but plenty of fun to be had here nevertheless. Despite the limited gameplay, the game is on the right side of frustrating to ensure you keep coming back.
