oh wow, im not even that old 21,
but my dad was quite a computer geek, i remember playing those old ass games where you had to type what you did(kings quest,first 5-6larry games,hero quest i played alot,not the board game,old pc game)
and me not speaking english native, i had to call my aunt everytime i needed to know what the english word for look,search and all those commands was really hard at the age of 8, and its actually funny to think about those games got me so hooked back then, i remember "Master of magic" how many hours i didnt spend playing that game, and the hassle my dad went through to upgrade our old 486 to 16mb of ram
oh yeah and Dune 2, the first and most epic RTS ever, tried dune 1 also back then cause i thought the second was good, but i never really understood that game,i was too young i think and not really into english
