Poll: When Did you start gaming?

Wow, I'm in the majority for once. If only my views on abortion etc were the same...nah, I'm the person in the right, it's everyone else who's crazy. Tee-hee.

The day I became a hardcore gamer is when I couldn't put down Starcraft.

Started at about 7-8 years old with the Atari 2600; 1984 to be precise.

20 years ago when I was five. I had the 2600 with all of the classics, but my favorite and first PC game was called World Games. It had events like bull riding, caber toss, cliff diving, and a couple other events that I can't quite remember. The first "Mature" game that I played was a year or so later and that game was Police Quest

I started on DOOM when I was around 4 years old...and I ended up raiding our Commodore 64 + ZX Spectrum games cabinet too for quite a while during that time so I'm told.

My father was relatively new to the whole gaming thing at the same time, so I guess I just jumped onto the bandwaggon and I've been gaming ever since.



Of course playing violent games at such a young age hasn't affected me at all.
