It wasn't a Commandore 64, it was a COMMODORE 64!

Winter and Summer games were great. There was also a Summer games II i believe.

I hated hot dog. I actually did like one of the 2 figure skating games on Winter games . I had a great score on 1 of them. I just did a whole bunch of weird ****, and amazingly got a huge score. My record was on there forever, my brother or no one else could beat it.

I wasn't very good at bobsledding, despite many, many attempts. I was pretty good a speedskating. I had a record on that one.

As for summer game I liked the cycling events. The high jump was impossible for me. I did okay at the triple jump. some of the swimming I did okay at.

Since I had my C64 age 9-11, I didn't play many of these fancy RPGs and whatnots (though I remember trying Elite and not understanding it at all). Instead me and my friends played lots of action games.

Perennial faves:

Spy Hunter
Operation Silk Worm
Archon
Commando
Er... this one set in a graveyard I can't remember the name of
Bizzarely, Streets Sports Basketball

Same here... got a pretty high score, don't remember how high though, but I was in the Hall of Fame until shortly before we sold the Amiga... then someone got a better score than me

anybody play text adventures?

I was really too young to every figure out how to beat any of them. I just had fun putting in stupid commands and see if there was a funny response.

Zork was a good text adventure. I remember laughing hysterically when I went into some bathroom, looked around, and the computer told when there was something brown laying on the floor. It turns out the brown thing was a chocolate bar which you had to feed to a dog so you could get past the next stage.

I have never tried a text adventure... the first one I ever tried was Larry 6...

Leasure suite larry and the King's Quest series weren't proper text adventures since they had pictures. The old Zork style text adventures were all the rage in the late 1970's and early 1980's when graphics were so bad no one cared that you were just always typing words and reading descriptions.

That's what I said... I have never tried text adventures...

Sorry, I guess I should read more closely.

The Seven Cities of Gold was another C64 game I really liked. I loved how I could have 16 spaniards and still destroy the entire Inca Empire.
