[Socius]

Ouch, thats longer than I care to remember... when I started Runescape was considered a good game, at least localy... Meh I have been active for what, 6 years now? started off at Runescape and adventure quest, these days Im gamining WoW, Dragonage, TF2, Fallout and Garrys mod. things sure have changed. Mind you that 1 human year is 23 computer years! So I am now a 138 year old gamer!

I've been playing games since I was like 3-4. Windows 3.1 games, and Sega Genesis, what's up.

I was about 5 or 6 years of age. Started with the original Nintendo black and white game boy.

I started gaming about three years ago, with the PS2, right before the PS3 came out.

 

[TheColdHeart]

I think I first started playing games at my friends house about 4-5 years old. It was Mario and Duck Hunt on the NES then I got my own SNES when I was 7 for a christmas and I became hooked from then. To think how much tim and money I have spent on games since then is phenomenal.

Four or Five... Not sure exactly, but my first few console games were LoZ:OoT, Diddy Kong Racing, and Pokemon Snap, all very soon after they were released. (Buying OoT=One of my earliest memories)
Played Pokemon blue around the same time, but I have no idea whatsoever how it fits into the time line.

My mom ate a nintendo for me to play with when I was in the womb (woom?).

That's a long time

 

[captainkrunch]

[SkullCap]

Me(age 4) to my older brother: "Whatcha playing?"

Brother: "Super Mario Bros."

Me (age 4): "Whose Mario?"

Brother: "The hero of the game. Wanna play?"

Me: "'Kay."

The rest is history.

 

[Indecizion]

[The Skip Master]

All my life really, can't think of my first game.

 

[e2density]

I am at a major disadvantage in ANY online game. I wasn't allowed to play video games on my own until I was about 12...now three years later, I can hold my own against other gamers, usually.

I got an N64 on Christmas in 1999.

Don't remember. My brother had a SNES and a gameboy. That inspired me to get my first system, a gameboy color followed by a gameboy advanced and then a gamecube. find out when the advanced came out subtract maybe a year or two and you'll have the date.
