How long have you been gaming?

[TehCookie]

I seem to be one of the few that started with a Sega Genesis, I still remember when the PlayStation came out even though I was only 3.

 

[infinisynth]

I've been gaming since 1986. Started with Super Mario Bro.s

 

[LiftYourSkinnyFists]

1995, I played through the doom PC games and moved on to AoE1/2 Diablo II in 99 and such, since then I've not been able to update my computer to keep up with the times ;(

About 1980 or 1981. First gaming console was something that played Pong, and some submarine/destroyer game called "depth charge" which was very similar to Pong.

I've been gaming for 15 years now, my first game being Doom II when I was 4 years old. Ah, nostalgia.

 

[Epifols]

'98, but then really got into it when Deus Ex came out in 2000

 

[Da Joz]

For about as long as I can remember. I used to sneak into my older brothers room and play his NES until I got a sega genesis of my own back in the very early 90's.

I made this thread just to say one thing. MW2 is Mechwarrior 2...

That was a great game!

1987 for me. Same year my sis was born and my parents bought me a 2600 to fill the void

I made this thread just to say one thing. MW2 is Mechwarrior 2, and that's what I read every time I see those letters....

Hey, me too! Mech2 was the first game I got with my first ever PC... can't remember how long ago that was - but it wasn't when I first started gaming, anyway.

I fist started gaming when one day, back in 1988 I asked my Dad if we could have a computer. That very night he came home with a ZX Spectrum +3. I guess he must have just been paid or something - because that was pretty unusual behaviour for my Dad.

Ahh, Cosmic Wartoad, The 'Dizzy' Series, The Sentinel, Krakout, Hammerfist, N.O.M.A.D., Harrier Attack, The Great Escape... the list of nostalgia goes on.

 

[Xpwn3ntial]

As long as I can remember.

 

[SnipErlite]

Forever.




Well, since the days of DOS and Windows 3.1 ^_^

(The Aladdin game ruled btw)

 

[Headless Zombie]

Don't remember how old I was, most likely around 7. My family rode a train out to Wisconsin to visit my grandmother. She owned a mom & pop rental store and had dozens and dozens of NES games and arcade games, she even sent a NES and a couple good games with me when I left.

Best. Summer. Ever.

1995.I started when i was 1 year old.But i became a much more serious gamer in 2002.

 

[RanD00M]

The Aladdin game ruled

Why yes it did.

 

[Randomologist]

I played Chips Challenge on a Windows 3.1 PC in 1995, when I was about four years old.
-Haven't stopped since, and I still have the game on a Floppy

 

[laura3lizab3th]

my Dad happened to win a N64 when i was about 5-6, so since then.

 

[zombflux]

Since the N64, so about 11-12 years.

Actually I played the SNES a few years before that, but I didn't own one.
