The game that changed your life ?

[jamie5166]

Tell me the game/games that have changed your life in any way? and why?

 

[alygishere]

Age of empires 2
taught my grandfather how to play it because he likes playing chess(strategy) and he likes history so every now and then i go to his house and play against him:-D.
If I beat him i get money so it has changed my life and surprisingly enough he's quite good at it:-D

Cliche but FF7. Didn't wanna play much without stories since then. In fact if the story is bad I won't play it! It'd have to be REALLY good fun!

 

[Haelin]

Obviously World of Warcraft, if you like it then it totally changes your life! hehe

Lylat Wars,

9 years old, never really 'got' gaming, then BOOM, must beat high score. It was the start of a long addiction...

 

[Kinichie]

World of Warcraft. Taught me to just simply not trust people, you'll only get stabbed in the back and screwed over. (By the people, not the rogue.)

Kung-Fu Master on the Amstrad 6128. It was the first game I ever played, around 20 years ago. Come to think of it, now that it's actually 20 years, it really sounds like a long time!

That game was the one that changed my life forever. I had many other games for the Amstrad, of course, but that will always be the first. After that first session, I was a gamer, and I always will be.

Age of Empires. It got me interested in history. In return, I continue to love and play AOE to this day.

 

[maggosh]

.hack//G.U. Best. RPG. Ever.

 

[rossatdi]

Half Life 1 - turned me into the gamer I am today. Basically a FPS whore, although I will happily play RPG if FP view is available.

 

[Chiasm]

My personal game is Fallout 2 when I was in middle school it is the game that really turned me from just playing around with Age of Empires into a full pc gamer. I remember reading the manual for Fallout 2 during classes. Funny how much that game series effected me in taste in film(Mad Max-style) and my Jet addiction =p

 

[Tryzon]

Probably Vice City. It was the first free-roaming-do-whatever-you-want thingie I ever played, and certainly changed my gaming life.

Although the first game I ever got addicted to was Pokemon Yellow on GBC. *Happy Nostalgia Mode*

 

[Geamo]

Half-Life, great game.

 

[shinydaemon]

Super Mario Bros - first game I ever played, started my addiction

Half-Life - got me into PC gaming and playing online

 

[Cunning Hookshot]

Command and Conquer. The first one.
I was about 5 or something, I couldnt actually play it properly so I watched my uncle play it.
Then I got a playstation, got C&C on it and tank rushed everything everywhere.

 

[MagnetoHydroDynamics]

LoZ:OoT *sniff* Nostalgiasauce...

 

[jamie5166]

Command and Conquer. The first one.
I was about 5 or something, I couldnt actually play it properly so I watched my uncle play it.
Then I got a playstation, got C&C on it and tank rushed everything everywhere.

i remeber playing command and conquer red alert on my ps1 with my uncle i has no idea how to play it but i always managed to win

 

[ianuam]

Dizzy on the c64, first game i ever played, aged 2. Gaming has never left me in the 18 years since.

 

[poleboy]

Super Mario Bros. got me into gaming.

Final Fantasy VI was my first RPG.

Torment completely changed the way I perceived videogames.

I spent more time playing Morrowind than any other game, ever. Even WoW.

Finally, Half-life 2 restored my belief in the PC as a gaming system.

Half Life 1. Just too good.
