Your first video/PC game?

Post by Solidé »

I think this is interesting topic. Especially in here at junkerHQ because of so many "old" people who has been playing games from early 90's or even from 80's.
So the question is; When did you started to play games? what were your first games and how old were you back then?

I started playing my first games in early 90's... possible at years 90-91. I was only about 5 years old and the platform was my dads old computer that had installed few DOS games. One of them was somekind of Formula game, i can't remember the name, but it was really old, i think the game was from 80's because even NES games looked much better than it. Other games i remember playing on that computer were Tetris and classic Arkanoid game. Arkanoid were actually my favourite game back then hehe.

After that i got my hands on Amiga, it was propably in the years 92-93. Some of the games i played on that system were technocop and frogger and few other sidescrollers. After Amiga i finaly got my hands on truly amazing Sega Megadrive II, and after that point i was "doomed" to be slave for videogames :D Sega really started my passion on videogames, even if i had played many other games before it.

The first console I owned was the Commodore 64 when I was simply two years young. I used to call it a "puta", short for "computer". The first game I can actually recall playing fairly well was Final Fight in the arcade when I was about three or four.

I was sure I'd posted in the original topic, but apparently not, and this one's gathering some steam, so why not.

We had a Commodore 64 in the house when I was born, but it wasn't until we had an Atari ST that I actually played a computer game. The first I played was Bubble Bobble on the Atari ST when I was around 2 or 3, since my older brother was desperate for someone to play it with. I loved it, and got hooked on 2D platformers (something that hasn't changed). I think the first game I bought for myself was Sonic 3.

My first game was one that I got for Christmas, when I was 6 or so. I believe it was the DOS version of Caveman Ninjas (Joe and Mac). Still one of my favorite games of all time. I also got the game Ambush! as well, but that never worked for my computer.

My first conscious memory was something on the NES when I was about 5. My friends (they were brothers) had an NES and they had a ton of games so it could've been any of them. I wish I knew for sure.

Anyway, I say "conscious" because who knows if I played something somewhere else sometime before then!
