$8499 back then you must have had to be loaded, don't know what that equates to now but bet its quite a lot.

What do you mean "had" - you mean you don't play "BC's Quest for Tyres" or Way of the Exploding Fist" any more???

Gears of War was out on the C64 years ago - it was called "Commando"....

My old computers are colecting dust as well. I'll have to plug my Atari 800XL in and see whether it still wants to power up or not. The last time I looked at the C64 the plastic had started to yellow a bit.

I have fun on all the latest games like GOW etc. but I don't think I've ever been as mesmerised like the first time I heard my C64 say "Ghostbusters!" or seen the animation in "Impossible Mission". Happy days.
