What c64 Emulator do you use?

[MonkeyLancer]

CCS64 is sometimes a resource hog for some reason...

 

[Unkillable Cat]

I'm using CSS64...

Version 2.0 BETA. Guess it's propably outdated by several eons by now.

 

[Epsilon]

Vice

 

[DwarvenFood]

vice indeed

 

[Luzur]

CCS64, newest.

and the real deal.

 

[Awor Szurkrarz]

Vice. There isn't much choice on Lisux.
I preferred CCS64, though.

 

[MonkeyLancer]

Yes Luzur, I wish I still had my c64..

Is yours still unscathed?

 

[DraQ]

Currently none installed (my HD died some time ago, I'll try to reclaim my emulator along with games collection, failing that I'll reinstall).
Usually CCS64.

I owned a spectrum back in the day and im very jealous of all the CRPG's released for c64

When the nostalgia kicks in I usually play in no particular order;
seven cities of gold, mail order monsters, gold box crpgs, archon, ultima 4, racing destruction set,wasteland, etc etc etc..
(I've still never played any bard's tale games and I'm sure I'm missing out)

the music alone in those games puts me in my happy place

Vice because it works well on Linux.

CCS64 people, is there any particular reason why you prefer it over Vice? I used it back when I was a Win person and to be honest I found the interface to be a pain in the neck.

you really want me to post the pics again?

 

[MonkeyLancer]

no, not at all. just amazes me, you obviously take care of your machines... or I'm too abusive

 

[Luzur]

i'll give ya a hint.

all but two was bought during later years.

I use both because of incompatibility issues, some games just like one particular emu.

Related question: What Apple II emu do you guys use? And what games do you know about that were good and exclusive for that system?

It's been a lot of time, so I'm not up to date, but it worked well, and had this nifty mode that emulated shit quality TV image.

Since shit quality, muted and blurry TV image was what stood between my delicate squishy eyeballs and huge pixels with sharp corners, in 16 bright and vibrant colours, making the picture look smooth and the colour spectrum more suited to the grey everyday reality of life in potato republic of potato I've learned to love it.
