Remember that time when we told you about <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/20/shredz64-project-bringing-guitar-hero-to-the-commodore-64/">Shredz64</a> and we were all excited and stuff? Well, friend, sometimes dreams do come true, and Toni ended up completing his Shredz64 project in style. In case you need a refresher, Shredz64 is all about bringing a Guitar Hero-style experience to the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Commodore64/">Commodore 64</a> -- which, in addition to holding much sentimental value, is quite the musical device in its own right. He has a custom-built "PSX64" interface for plugging his PS2 Guitar Hero guitar into the C64, which he's having produced for sale alongside a 5 1/4-inch floppy disk of Shredz64, but the real magic is the software itself. The C64-synthesized songs sound great, and interface is like Guitar Hero or Rock Band without all the annoying fluff. Check out the videos after the break for everything in action.<p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/10/shredz64-is-very-real-and-very-shredding/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Shredz64 is very real and very shredding</em></a></p><p style="clear: both; padding: 8px 0 0 0; height: 2px; font-size: 1px; border: 0; margin: 0; padding: 0;"> </p><p><a href=http://www.toniwestbrook.com/shredz64>Read</a> | <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/10/shredz64-is-very-real-and-very-shredding/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent link to this entry">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.engadget.com/forward/1136673/" title="Send this entry to a friend via email">Email this</a> | <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/10/shredz64-is-very-real-and-very-shredding/#comments" title="View reader comments on this entry">Comments</a></p><hr />
