Csdb is about people who actually CREATE something instead of playing ancient games all the time.
Csdb is by far the best site and I visit it every day.
I would'nt say Lemon64 is "only" about games. It main focus were once about games only, but now it's more like a mixed community by both gamers and sceners. |

well, let me think.... you can play games - i guess the words 'play' and 'games' would hopefully mean you are having 'fun' |

gaming is for kiddies, dude! (Well, okay... We all play now and then...) Demos is art - if you are really interested in computers you'll see the coolness in demos. We're making stuff on a C64 for many reasons, but the most important must be that the C64-style is cool, and that it is a great challenge to make stuff that rulez on a C64 (for reasons that are obvious - 64KB ram and 0.9MHz being some of them). |

who says gaming is for kids? i would be more inclined to say that kids would use words such as 'rulez' and 'dude' but thats beside the point.
anyway, i agree that the c64 is ultra cool - where can i see some of these demos?
what i mean is i enjoy using the c64 because it reminds me of when i was a kid - i doubt that someone of 10-15 would be interested in a c64 without having the nostalga part there as well. |

Fadiga: Try clicking on one of the "Top Demos" links in the blue box next to this forum, and then scroll down to the download links... ;-)
If I were you I wouldn't post such strong statements ("miles better than this site" etc.) about the CSDB without finding out what this site is actually *about* first. |

Seems like someone has a serious intelectual blackout today. First saying that this site is not as good as another site then suddenly not knowing anything about this site at all. |

I have, in recent few years, witnessed 4-6 year olds enjoying C64 (real machine, not emulator), without any nostalgia, does this count?

not the first one:
"whats wrong with playing old games?"
"why dont you just use a new pc or something?"
the both (with having 1 sentence between them" fit perfectly together, don't you think so? |

yeah, i could sound like an old man with a long white beard, if i wanted to, but i'm not old and i don't have one of those lame beards. It's okay u don't like how i talk, i don't give a fuck.
Anyway, about the demos, you can (as mermaid said) ofkoz find some here in CSDb, and there are a lot of C64 FTP-sites too. There've been made a lotta good and a lotta bad demos for da C64, so don't be put off if the first one you see doesn't totally rule. There are a lot of cool demos where the kewlest stuff mas been made with a C64, and you just go "wow! that can be done on a C64!!".
Finally, demos run/sound/look better on a real C64 plugged into a TV, so you should see the demos on a real C64, if u wanna get the best experience out of it. |
