With its massive 64K of memory power, the Commodore 64 was the bomb circa 1984. Activision made the games that made the C64 -- and here they are, in Activision's Commodore 64 15-Pack.

- Hacker: Infiltrate an international network of espionage and nuclear secrecy just like a true-to-life high-tech burglar: via your computer and without any instructions
- Beamrider: one of the first 3-D action games, where spaceships battle on a grid of obstacles and laser blasts
- Portal: You return to earth after years in space, only to find that humanity has disappeared and only a computer's database contains the answers to the mystery
- Little Computer People: Think you're responsible?
