i don't think that there is such a place, and even if there were: wouldn't help you much, because they're all 6502 assembler anyway so you could aswell just look into the memory. |

There is a place where you could have a go at coding your own C64 game. Take a look at http://www.redizajn.sk/tnd64/assemble_it.html as I have a tutorial on how to code games :) |

obtaining the "sourcecode" of any old c64 game is basically a matter of firing up a disassembler (i usually recommend IDA - www.datarescue.com) and spend a few days with reverse-engineering it. it may be a tough nut to crack for a beginner, but you will for sure learn a lot about assembler and programming techniques.
other than that... one game-sourcecode i know that is available is the reverse-engineered version of elite...available at ftp.musoftware.de/pub/uz/elite128 or sth like that :o)
mmh... i have also seen a disassembled version of "q-bert" somewhere, cant remember where :/ |

Have a look at this windows programe, It looks very usefull for disassembling C64 programes, It will even add comments for known registers.

I use Recomment 4.07a - it's a Perl script. So far it's been the best I've used. I have no idea who started it but the version I use has additions by Pasi "Albert" Ojala. |

Here is another one. If you remember 'Manky' (Firstreleased by SECRET) then this web site has the source code. Here's the URL http://www.peterscommodore64.cjb.net.
Crazy game, I have to admit ;D
