Hmm looking at the posts here it seems I'm a bit older than most of you ... for me it had to be old commodore 64 games but as for pc games when I got "serious" about gaming it would have to be bubble bobble and prince of persia.

i was hooked when i played my first 2 ps1 games, spyro and crash ;D

i don't think there was ever a solid point where i made the transition to gamer, i was always just a bit of an addict

 

[Anghellika]

Well...Im old.. I would have to say Super Mario Bros for the NES

 

[Lizardon]

A combination of the original Pokemon games, Age of Empires and Dungeon Siege were probably the greatest influence, hence my love of RPG's

The game that made me the gamer I am is the good old Pokémon Red version. It was the start of my downfall. Now I am here.

Sonic the Hedgehog, Golden Axe, and Wonder Boy III. My cousin owned a MegaDrive and I loved it. It's a pity that Sonic is now a shadow of his former self. No pun intended.

Difficult to say really, it was probably pokemon yellow. Unreal tournament 2004 also really got me into gaming in general, it was my most played game for about 3 years.

Spyro

 

[JourneyThroughHell]

The first Call Of Duty was simply excellent and forever made me into an FPS fan.
And, damn.
Ninja'd.

Sonic, when I was younger I was determined to beat the final boss myself, without the help of my brother or dad, damn he was so hard when I was younger, but yeah, Sonic got me into games, I like the thrill of completing and also I didn't really have a thing I was good at until I came across games.

Though I do have to point out that I started gaming late. I got the N64 when I was 13, if I remember right.

 

[Wrists]

Tomb Raider 2, I would spend hours in front of the PC trying to get through it...I don't remember how old I was but I can't have been older than 7. I never finished it but it did make me resolve to play and finish more games.

One Must Fall: 2097.

First played it at three years old, and I haven't looked back.

 

[AwesomeFerret]

Pokemon Silver, thats the reason I am the guy I am today

Yeah C64 games for me too. Namely, Forbidden Forest (you played a game a lot when you had to wait 30 minutes for it to load) and CREATURES (yes caps is correct)

CSS or HL2.
I'd played CS and HL1, but at that time I wasn't really a gamer.
