I still have the original C64GS with this cartridge, although the two halves of the cartridge fall apart on a regular basis. I found Fiendish Freddy with the Three Stooges references to be hilarious when I was 11, but now that I'm 29, I think it's just a crap game. The other three games were excellent though, especially Flimbo. Klax was a bit of a problem on my old B&W TV though.
omg i remember this cart,i got it with my first c64 fot xmas in 1989 i think it was,flimbos quest was great,feel realy sad in a way tho watching this,simpler times and all that
which site did you get this game and emulator from. its driving me crazy. This game reminds me alot of being 5 again and the late 80s and early 90s. Memories like those are priceless and god dammit I miss them more than anything. thanks man x
I loved playing this cartridge, c64 was the very first console I ever owned and this game was the first game I played on it :D Flimbos quest as my fave by far, never really got the hang of the other two
i had one of these with a few great games like Navy Seals as mentioned, Chase HQ 2, Badlands, Robocop 2 which i thought was ace. i also had this cartridge and Flimbo was my favourite game and i could NEVER complete it, always died on level 5 (the one with the green background and the big shit of a flying thing). did anyone ever finish it?
the newer models have CPU and SID integrated into one chip, I think it is called 8510 and unfortunately it has filters changed which affects music that uses them + samples play silent in most games
i had the 1991 model aswell when i was young too,but it got lost in mist of time,well,after we got our mega-drive(which i still have),then i got the 1986 model last year,with the black keys.wanted the '91 model,but didnt see any at the time.works the same anyway,just i think the 91 model loaded faster or sumtin.ive a load of cassettes too,but a lot of them dont work anymore.shame!!
Nah no loading times differences - but one reason maybe why half your games dont work anymore is the magnetic radiation from todays television sets etc - one thing bad about the commodore 64 is the magnetic fields that the datassette would be prone to recieve - commodore tried to remedy this with a little earth wire (the metal wire that comes from the datassettes plug) its horrible for magnetic field interference is the datassette!
flimbos rules!! i have both the winvice Emulator,AND a real commodore(the mid-80s model),got it on ebay a few months back!!ive always had this 4 game cartridge.Its 100 times better playing it on the TV with a joystick(even better on a widescreen)but the winvice is deadly too.
id advise anyone to look ebay up for one.its fully worth it!!
I also have the cartridge on a real commodore 64, mines around 1991 model (white keys), and it is in fact much better playing it on real hardware and an original commodore 64 joystick or quickshot 2 etc
Flimbos quest did have an amazing music score on the c64 - certainly used the SID chip to its potential - did you ever hear any c64 music like the tracks made by mainacs of noise?
I loved these games as a kid. But you have spoilt them for me and ruined Christmas. Cheers pal!

Theres an important difference between the newer c64's and the original c64's - the sid chips :D

I might erase this video and replace it via a real c64 - the audio is totally out of sync !

Loved this on the old C64. Flimbo's Q had fantastic music and sound effects. Especially when you died!
