I remember playing Doom and Duke Nukem etc cause Dad brought home a pc from work with them on. Then later he got Command and Conquer orignal and then it really kicked off.

The first game I played, as I recall, was on the BBC micro when I was around four where the objective was to place a cartoon elephant on the back of a cartoon truck by solving a series of simple equations.
My first proper game was Dune 2 or UFO Enemy Unknown, one of the two I think.

For me my first game ever played was Mario and my first computer game was Wolfenstein and the rest just continued to fit in it.

When I was about 8 my brother and I got an old Comodore 64 and we started playing the little games that it had. Then we got a newer computer, I am ashamed to say it was a mac and we started playing EV.

I think I was 6 years old or so, my dad had a Commodore 64 with a whole lot of game disks. We played King Cribbage and Legacy of the Ancients together. Never got too far on the latter, until a couple years ago when I rediscovered all the games of my youth through emulators. On the old 64 I used to play a lot of Archon, Neutral Zone, Bozo's Night Out, Apollo 18, Exolon, Choplifter, Wheel of Fortune, Mega Apocalype, Legacy of the Ancients of course, Gauntlet, etc.

Then I moved on to Sega Genesis, Playstation, then to more PC oriented gaming. Quest for Glory is hands down the greatest series of games ever, started playing them when I was 10 or 11, and play through them every couple of years or so.

I was just going to start this thread, good thing I searched.

Anyways, the game that got me into video gaming was Resident Evil 1. When I was around 7, I went to my cousin's house, and thats when I played it; and ever since then, I've loved video games.

I got into gaming back when the Colecovision was the shiz. Playing two player Space Invaders - was great! Also joysticks on the controllers! Ahead of its time.
