I've been enjoying checking out some old(er) school Vic20 games on the 64 Maxi because I always love seeing old hardware being pushed to it's limits. Modern movie like consoles bore me to no end because there's no challenge in pushing the hardware. Besides, if I want to watch a movie I'll watch a movie. Lol
So thought it'd be interesting to hear what games you've been impressed by on the vic20. If you've seen the 8 bit guy videos on the Vic it's graphics are pretty much better than anything out there at it's release. Most people don't realize that because it was limited by it's ram. Some of the pictures done on it are actually pretty amazing. It's sound chip was also better than pretty much anything on the market at that time too.
One of the games done in recent years for it was pitfall, which uses raster interrupts for some of the graphics. Another recent dungeons and dragons style game is said to be the largest game ever created for it, featuring multiple disks.
So if you have a favorite or think a game is impressive for one reason or another I'd like to hear about it.
