I believe I started gaming when I was five. So fourteen years.
First game I finished was Spyro the Dragon.
Last game I finished was Shadow of the Colossus on hard mode.

Probably since I was 4, so 18 years.
I remember One must fall, Blake Stone, Jill of the Jungle, Duke Nukem 2, and Galaga on a tabletop machine down by the post office.
First game I remember finishing... Probably Blake Stone or Duke Nukem but I don't remember them all that well.
Very likely Snes titles are the first I properly remember beating but I don't have a timeline of when I did so.
Last game I finished was Dragon Age 2 I guess, I haven't been shooting for completable games recently. WoW, Oblivion, and LoL have taken up most of my time, hopefully Alice Madness Returns is a proud new answer for this within a couple weeks.
Edit: RIGHT, sorry, Portal 2. (Not forgotten for lack of love of it, just misplaced my timeline)
Also, jealous of everyone older than me that clearly remembers a lot of those old ones.

It's got to be close to 40 years now. The first gaming machine I remember buying was some sort of Pong game in the early 70's. (bought in the local hardware store, if you can believe that). I graduated to a Commodore Vic-20, where you had to type in the code by hand from magazines and store the program on to cassette tapes. You could work on a game for days before you actually got to play. From there I have owned or played all the gaming systems ( including several PC systems I built specifically for gaming). My last completed game was Portal 2 on the 360. It has been (and I hpoe continues to be) a wonderful ride!!

I have been playing video games for about 23 years. My first console was the Sega Master System, though I had played on the NES, Atari 2600 and Intellivision/Colecovision at friends houses before that.
The first game I actually "finished" was Casino Games on the Sega - you win by earning $1,000,000 and therefore breaking the bank. Since I don't really feel like that counts, I'll go ahead and mention that I finished Alex Kidd in Miracle World, the game that was built into the Sega Master System.
The last game I finished was... uh... Portal 2? Since then I've restarted Fallout New Vegas because my savegame was all jacked up, and just this week I started playing Crysis 2 though I've been playing more multiplyer... more than I expected I would really.

I've been playing since I was eight or so. About twelve years I guess.
First game I ever beat, I think it was Pokémon Red.
Most recent game I beat was Golden Sun, the first one.

1. I've been gaming for 27 years, since I was 4 - I'll let you work out my age 
2. The first game I ever finished was either Midnight Resistance for the Spectrum 128k or Aliens in the arcades (produced by Konami). Back when I started playing, it was uncommon for games to actually have endings. The motivation to play was score and the sheer enjoyment of it all.
3. The last game I finished was Splinter Cell: Conviction (about to finish Dragon Age 2).

I've been gaming since I was three. My earliest memories are of playing Super Mario Bros. 3 on the NES. So I've been playing games for sixteen, going on seventeen, years. I don't really remember what the first game I finished was, they all sort of run together...The last one I beat was Ocarina of Time: Master Quest, without any walkthroughs or hints or the like. Before that was Portal 2.
Well, got a game-boy to teach myself how to use my hands again when i was 3, so about 12 years now, me being 15.
First game i finished that i can remember was either Mario 64, or banjo-kazooie.
Last game, secrets of monkey island on the xbox live arcade.

If you actually read all the pages of this thread please sound off.
I mean I guess it's kinda interesting if I knew the community better, but this question merely boils down to a number between 1 and 50 and although 40+ might be pretty interesting I'm too lazy to read through it all to think: Hey that bastards been gaming for twice as long as I've been alive.
