Where can I find a big set of c64 roms? And what is the best emu for the c64?

-Thanks-

I like VICE for Commodore emulation. Runs on multiple platforms, and seems to do everything (although I wasn't a commode-dore

guy back in the day, so I"m not an expert).

In terms of software for the C64, I'd have to go with usenet myself.
Keep an eye on "alt.binaries.emulators.cbm". I think that's it. If not, I'm sure someone around here will correct me. The other usenet group to watch would be "alt.binaries.emulators.misc".

I never have got into using usnet for downloads isn't it a haven for viruses?

Never mind I found the perfect spot, link below.

ROMs? http://www.pjvdpoel.demon.nl/Cartridge.htm

Oh, you mean disk or tape images. That's a different kettle of fish, then. http://www.lemon64.com/ , http://www.c64games.de/ , amongst others.

Emulators? VICE, CCS64.

Downloading software indiscriminately to run natively on Windows, perhaps.
Downloading images of 20 year old software to be interpreted by emulators? Not bleedin' likely.

Just look on binary newsgroups for the Gamebase64 collection (plug plug as I work on it). All the games out there collected so far (over 17,000) and a nice frontend to load them with.

Yeah, search for the Gamebase64 collection. Available on newsgroups, bittorrents and eMule.

4 CD's now and about 16,000 odd games plus photos, screenshots, the High Voltage SID Collection, etc.
