What was your fav one? :)
-
Your forgot the 128 a$$hole :P
The 128 is my fav.
-
Don't have much experience with them, but probably AMIGA slightly.
-
C64 i've never owned one but i all ways had a friend who had it.
Btw i do have a old, C64 1702 color montior for backup use.
While it just has composite and no rbg the picture it give is pretty good 8)
-
C64, never owned an Amiga since I don't live in Europe. C64 had TONS of classics, that's one of the best game platforms of all time, I used to play stuff like Blue Max and Bruce Lee for hours.
-
Never had any, but a friend's C64 was cool. But I wasn't blown away.
But then I went to this kid's house and he showed off his Amiga... That was during the NES's heydays, and I couldn't believe that games could have such good graphics/sound outside the arcade.
-
I'd say c-64 cuz I heard it had a porno game on it :lol:

rolf..yes. i totally forgot it, even i had one :lol: but in terms of playing games on, it was a c-64 :)
-

those the amiga had as well, and with much sharper optic though :lol:
but the 64 is my fav, since it had the best sound chip ever developed > SID. sheer unbelievable what people like tel jeroen, matt grey, rob hubbard, tim follin, martin galway, chirs hülsbeck, ramiro vaca and all the others out there, could took out from that little analog chip. sound i'm still listening to nowadays almost daily :clap:
-
Amiga, totally. I had tons of fun with my brother's Amiga 600 ages ago. He had a C64 too, but as I said in the Atari thread: I didn't enjoy video games until I got my NES.
-
The 64 ruled back in second grade, with a sweet version of Jungle Hunt and the legendary Agent USA. I've gotta go with it.
-
AMIGA. THREAD OVER.
But the SID chip was pretty nice too...

he's 19, he didn't had the chance to get into the famos world of 8-bit and its 64 kilobytes :mrgreen:

Plus Amiga emulators are a lot easier to get working than C64 emulators, and MOD music is better than SID music, so there's more reasons why...
-
1. Emulators? not really interested in
2. SID [--X---------------] MOD
:D
-
2. SID [--X---------------] MOD
If you mean 4 channel MOD, yes, SID pwns that.
However, when OctaMED became Octamed SoundStudio providing 64 channels ON A STOCK AMIGA, SID just doesn't compare...

stay on the earth^^ when we talking about amiga its games and MOD, then of coz it's good ol' 4-channel startracker, since the amiga couldn't handle more from its hardware side. however some rare artist also used already 8-channels at that time.
anyway i prefered the CUS or TXFM over MOD, since they allowed much more creativity since they could handle some neat analog filters. CUS is a kind of high end SID. please lissen once to the titel music of Hybris, that will blow off your ears :D

They all kinda sucked as home computers - great for games but not so great for productivity apps. Of course, they were far cheaper than a comparable Apple or PC.
-
Amiga music rules.
C64 music rules.
The best part about Commodore systems. Don't care for the games much.

UHHH, VIDEO TOASTER ANYONE!? LIGHTWAVE!?

Since everybody here favors SID, GO HERE: http://www.6581-8580.com/

-

to play any kind of Home computer tunez, there exist the one and only specialist for > www.deliplayer.com (http://www.deliplayer.com/)
-
What's your point Kitsune? Weren't Video Toaster and Lightwave intended for the commercial market? If it weren't for cost, I would've rather used a PC or Apple ][ for basic home computing needs.
-
Oh yeah I forgot, you meant BORING home computer stuff, like taxes and word processing and grandma shit.
Sorry but the Amiga isn't a boring computer. :P
-
The C64, hands-down.
Your forgot the 128 a$$hole :P
The 128 is my fav.
The C128 is a C64 in a clown suit. :D :D :D

Heh i like saying that a as a joke since it was more popular in the UK.
-
C64 for life. Nothing comes close.
-
Amiga FTW.
Commodore licks decrepid nutsacks, and likes it. Amiga is, and always has been too good for them. That's the real reason they split.
-
MOD music is better than SID music, so there's more reasons why...
Hrm...that's pretty much personal taste. I like both myself. Both formats have their own charm, although both are horribly outdated today (.IT ftw).
-
(.IT ftw).
.XM double FTW! :p
-
XM is too limited for my tastes, although I've got quite a few modules in XM format. Fast Tracker II was my first tracker, but I later found ScreamTracker 3 and it was better interface-wise (even if S3M is more limited than XM, the program handled much better and was easier to use), then of course, the far superior Impulse Tracker, then later Modplug Tracker, which is what I use now.
-
I use MPT too, but I love the XM format.
