Original caption

Loaded up Platoon on a real Commodore 64 from the original floppy. The 1541 drive sound, SID music, CRT glow, and joystick clicking… this was the whole ritual. And this game was brutal. Did anyone actually beat Platoon on the C64? #commodore64 #c64 #retrogaming #platoon #floppydisk #vintagecomputer
