Rename a video game to something hilarious.
I'll start, Asteroids renamed to Alderaan.

The new C64 Ultimate demo scene is turning out some cool stuff. The C64 Ultimate can run 48 times faster than the 40 year old C64 and the demo scene is using it. I would like to see CMD SuperCPU titles converted over. The SuperCPU uses a 16-bit 65C816 which adds op-codes that won't work with the 6510, which the Ultimate still uses, just 48 times faster. Or about 3 times faster than the SuperCPU. Speed can be dialed in on the Ultimate, though, 1,2,3,4,6,8,16… See More
etc. Between 16 MB REU and the turbo modes, it opens the door for more cool stuff. However, he VICII is still a 16 color graphics chip. So it will look the same but with smoothing animation.

These FPGA systems are awesome. The Analogue 3d has an overclocking feature and CRT mode for N64 games.

Playable demo of My Day on the Highway for the Commodore 64 released. This game looks amazing for a C64 title. Never imagined this back in the day.

Sadly, the programmer announced that this demo is the final game. He doesn'y wish to finish it.

Skate or Die theme from the Commodore 64 version. This is one franchise that should have continued. It's Epyx Summer/Winter Games style with skateboarding. The half-pipe event was also including in California Games, another game like the Epyx Summer/Winter Games.
BTW, another Epyx-like game was Cave-Man Ugh-lympics. These were all finger-bending joystick-breaking games. Where to win would take a certain amount of literal pain. Sometimes more than… See More
expected as a friend actually punched me hard for laughing at him struggling.

Speaking of skateboarding, I went to Jean Farb Middle School with Tony Hawk. There was a big blue half-pipe near the land bridge we crossed to get to the school. He made a name for himself back then at only the age of 13. We weren't friends, though, but everyone there knew him, he would perform at the half-pipe there which was built for him. Even though it was public property. Jean Farb was a year-round multi-track school and I was on a different track than him, so we never shared any classes.… See More
But since I crossed back and forth on that land bridge I'd walk passed the half-pipe quite often (as did all the kids that lived in Murphy Canyon) and there would occasionally be a crowd there, when he performed tricks on it, sometimes even the media was there too. If he stayed at Serra High he would have been part of my graduating class there, but he transferred to a different high school. At that time, though, he was already world famous.
The half-pipe is no longer there, though, it was torn down to make way for a recreation center parking lot. Not sure when it happened, but can see here on Google Earth, I marked where it was.
BTW, just out of that Google Earth view, across Santos Way at the bottom and to the right is Miller Elementary, where they evacuated people to after that small jet crashed into Navy Housing back in January of this year. That's how close this is from there.

8 SID for 24 voices.
Yannes originally wanted to design the SID chip to have 16 voices, but CBM forced him to cut it back to just 3.
But just listen to the power it has here with 24 voices.
If I can get the right MIDI adapter for my TherapSID synthesizer I can upgrade the ArmSIDs to an Arm2SID and get 9 sid voices and an additional 9 FM OPL2 voices. (like the original Soundblaster) However, it needs a Turbo MIDI adapter to to acces the 3ed SID and the… See More
FM engine. They are very expensive as they aren't made anymore.
