Hmm. Well, I was born in 1988, so...Pong, Donkey Kong, Pac-Man, Super Mario...dunno if there are any others, though there might be.

Dungeons and Rragons. Oh yeah.

Before that, it had to have been Super Mario Bros.

Ultima (yes, the original one, on cassette). And thanks for making me feel like a fogey and ruining an otherwise perfect day... you monster.

('89 for those interested)

Well I can't remember the last game that I played that was older than me, but I can remember some games that I've played that I was born after.

Pac-man, Ms. Pac-man, Dig-dug, Tetris, Galaga (is that how you spell it? Galagia?), Centipede, Millipede, Warlords, Asteriod(s?), Space Invaders, Spy vs Spy, Pong, Donkey Kong, and a couple other's that I can't remember the names to. I have a couple collections of arcade games that I haven't played in a while, so I've actually played a decent amount of games older than me.

You and me both, at least we can claim we had 1337 hax music and our women had shoulderpads for when they would tackle us into bed.

I was born in the 80's, I know how it went down.

I don't know honestly. Super Mario World is the oldest game I can recall playing recently (ie within the past year) and that's almost a year younger than me. Actually going by the North America release it's almost two years younger.

Maybe it was Duck Hunt on my NES emulator. That game's easy as pie with a mouse instead of a lightgun.

Born in 1990... so I think the only game I've ever played that's older than me is Tetris.

I'd have thought it was Myst, but I am slightly older than that. SO probably the colour version of Spelunx. Both these things crashed after I booted them up.

Riven lasted until after I had listened to Atrus had given me a long list of fun things I wasn't allowed to do.

If we are talking video games, I'm not entirely sure this is doable for me, being born in the year 1980.

Hmmphh kids. Gee, if we're talking computer games that's hard - there weren't many around 32 years ago (1978). Actually I'm not sure if there were any around at all. I remember playing Pong and Space Invaders on either a Famcom or a very early Atari when I was about 4, that's probably the last time I played something that 'might' have been older than me - and I actually think it was released (that version of Atari/pong) when I was 2-3, so doesn't count.

errrr monopoly or maybe chess
Monopoly goes back to the turn of the century...

For me... fuck I don't know. Chess? Jeeze, I don't know. I'm 28 years old. I played a lot of games on the Atari 2600 and a lot of games on the Apple IIe when I was a kid, but the IIe doesn't predate me. So... yeah, I've no idea. I'm going to go with the game of chess I played a couple weeks ago.
