Your First Game

[Benjeezy]

Pokemon Sapphire. The good'ole pokemon days.

You kids today, with your Legendary Dogs, and your Berries, and your Rayquazas...back in my day, there was only ONE bike! It went at a perfectly good speed, and we were happy with it! We didn't need it to do bunny hops or move superfast orrrzzzzzzz

What was I talking about?

When I was just a baby my grandpa would set me in front of the TV so I could watch him play all of the Super Mario games. My first memory is of him owning at Super Mario Bros 3. As soon as I was old enough, I started playing those games. Mario Bros 3 remains one of my favorite games of all times.

Fuck if I know.

I can tell you that my first RPG was Grandia. I'm a sucked for giving orders in turn based combat since. Although no series has done turn based combat as well since...

Pokemon Yellow on a Pokemon edition Gameboy colour. Given to me by my parents on my 7th (I think) birthday. Rather ironicly my parents aren't as happy about my love of games now a days.
I shall always love Pokemon.

Age 4. Playing Marathon on the Mac.

It freaked the shit out of me!

First game I ever played at any great length was Mario 64.

I just bought it again recently. I'm having too much fun.

In the beginning there was Marathon, and it was good. Then came Halo, and it was okay enough, if you like that sorta thing.

Let's see... first game... *think think think* C-64... Jumpman!

Guardian Wars, on the 3DO.

It had the best music in a video game EVAR.

Somekind of educational game about waterplant management in city canals.
You could choose what you thought would be the best solution like mowing or releaseing fish, you could even use chemicals that killed everything in the water !

I can't remember the name of it, but it was this awesome "survival" game on the Commadore 64. Used text-based commands to get stickmen to make a shelter and survive the elements. Was strangely enthralling as a kid.

Might have to see if I can track down what it was called, and if someone's got it emulated...

Hmmm...

What was I talking about?

I never actually used the bunny hop. I actually just needed the bike to move from place to place. The Legendaries, well look at Diamond, see how much they got. I only got (Forgot the name) that i needed.

No offence taken I assume?
