Visual Studio is another popular alternative. It's an IDE, so it comes with all the tools you need to start programming.

But the Express edition (the only free one) doesn't have an x64 compiler.
All the buzzt!

I think Pelles also has a 64 bit version for free - Pelles C - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

See under "Compiler". Express only contains the 32-bit x86 compiler. But you are right, the original question wasn't clear.

It looks like it is possible: can't compile a 64-bit project in visual c++ express 2010
Though, it looks like a pain. Not sure why Microsoft would eliminate 64-bit compilation from Visual Studio Express...

Because Express is meant for hobbyists, and they don't need more than 2GB of address space in MS's opinion? Just like they apparently don't need to develop desktop apps anymore.

64-bit operating system were invented years ago, but seemingly there is little benefit to upgrading to 64-bit applications. It's just ... wrong.
I can actually kind of relate to Microsoft's decision (and agree) to restrict newest VS to Metro only. That way, we'll get lots and lots of less crapware that looks mega-ugly and which screws up your computer. With Metro, there will be less crapware, at least.
*shrug* Oh well. We'll see how this turns out. Windows 8 along with the newest VS seems to be under a lot of critique.

If everything else is equal, then yes. But like I said, it also means less crapware, because less things can go wrong.

The new VS is only limited to Metro via a lack of 'normal' Win32 projects and a single config file setting which enforces the WinRT switches for the compiler. Once you turn that off, you get normal non-WinRT binaries.
Obviously it isn't the same slick experience as previous incarnations, and no doubt they've made it harder to create desktop apps with Express, but it's not quite impossible... yet.
