Historien om Commodore 64

Vi har tidigare tipsat om en riktigt bra artikelserie som noggrant gick igenom Amigans historia.Nu har Gamastutra skrivit ihop en minst lika intressant artikeln om den legendariska Commodore 64.

The Commodore 64 (C64) is perhaps the best known 8-bit computing platform ever designed, rivaled only by the Apple II in terms of popularity and longevity. Within a few short years after its introduction in 1982, the Commodore 64 dominated the low-end computer market, receiving a steady stream of software and peripheral support that lasted through the decade. In 1985, Commodore followed up with the lesser known Commodore 128 (C128), a technically superior machine that failed to win over the massive base of C64 fans and developers.

Personligen spenderade jag mängder med timmar med min Commodore 64 bakom härliga spel som Bruce Lee, Archon, Ghostbusters, Zaxxon, California Games, Great Giana Sisters, International Karate + ja listan är nästan oändligt. Läs hela artikeln borta på Gamasutra.
