Your first video game!

[amppi1236]

What game was it? Where did you play it? Why and when did you play it? What did it feel like?
My first game was Spyro 2 for PlayStation. My dad bought it for some reason and I loved it! It felt like I finally found my purpose in life, and that purpose was playing games.
How was your first encounter with a game?

I think it was either Power Pete, Full Throttle or Nanosaur.

Actually, it was all of them. They came with the Mac.

Good times. Good times.

Heresy! We must all bow down to the cuteness that is Charmander.

The first game I remember playing was Alisia Dragoon on the MegaDrive. Can't remember when why and where but I know it felt pretty damn good. In fact, I think I'll go and play it now.

Emulators FTW!

Pokemon. Blue.

Love it to pieces, ironically, my sister introduced me to the series.

As a result, we get along very well.

One of two games come to mind:

1) Exterminator [http://www.lemon64.com/?mainurl=http://www.lemon64.com/reviews/view.php%3Fid%3D788] for the Commodore 64

2) This I'm not too sure on, but from memory, it had you play as a pirate looking for treasure in a randomly generated maze. It had a top down view, the maze was kinda set in a jungle or something, and was on the Commodore 64.

No no no, you choose Squirtle or Bulbasaur first, because then you can easily beat Brock.

Screw that. My leafy dinosaur beat everyone.

Mario Bros. Am I old yet?

 

[manicfoot]

Super Mario Bros. I was 4 and forced to go to a gathering at someone's house... Asked my dad if it was okay if I stayed in the boys bedroom because I felt ill (really, I was just scared of social situations and wanted to get out of it) and he let me... I saw a NES in his room and ended up playing Mario Bros for 3 hours straight until we had to go home... and I've picked gaming over socialising many times since

 

[Meemaimoh]

Space Invaders for DOS. I was three.

I feel so old in this thread...
